SVGP and the Grable move was a bit surprising

The timeline matters here, as well. If you go back to March when O Gun was signed, we then had only Oliver Jones and Carter on the roster. Beane has since stated that once they learned about the suspension, the FA DT market had essentially dried up for what they were looking for. This lead them to the renegotiation of the deal. There was also no way to forecast that they’ve be drafting two defensive tackles a month later. So although Larry might have been in the initial re-tooling plans, I think the suspension moved him to more of an insurance role. Now that we’ve restocked in the draft with what appears to be reliable youth, they can shelf O gun for weeks and have him available as a “pull here in case of emergency” whether that be injuries or performance. The 3.5 guarenteed is a sunken cost, and I think Beane may have seen it as a bit of insurance heading into the draft and offseason to make sure they aren’t bone dry come January relying on the likes of Eli Ankou and Zion Logue when it matters most.

Lamar Jackson released?!?!???? Not that one. The CB from the Falcons.

Spotrac has it on his yearly breakdown. If you scroll all the way to the right, it shows that his dead cap would be 3.5 from his signing bonus which was guaranteed. The other 2 mil of guarentees, which ads up the the 5.5 you keep referencing, was voided from PED suspension. Reading the contract notes below the yearly breakdown explains this. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/21807/larry-ogunjobi Over the cap has this shown in a different way. If you look at the yearly breakdown chart, and switch the dead and cap savings to post June 1, it shows that it’s 3.5 in dead and 3mil in cap savings. Maybe someone else like @BarleyNY can chime in on the contract deets.

You keep referencing these numbers, but again I do not think this is accurate. They removed a 2 million dollar salary guaranteed voided due to the PEDs. He’s 3.5 in guarentees. If they cut him before he gets a game check, that’s all she wrote.

My guess is practice squad. I just don’t see how they’d fit him on the roster even if Carter is moved. It doesn’t make sense positionally either

I wonder what the worst way to be released would be? I’m sure there are some good stories out there
