NFL.Com 39 notable cut candidates

Just one Cowboy - Damone Clark

The Cowboys have a lot of work to do this offseason, starting $2.8 million in the red and not particularly flush with cuttable, cap-saving players. There are a couple key starters who could be released (especially with post-June 1 designations) to save big money, but that might hurt more than it helps. Instead, Dallas will likely need to restructure contracts, shift money and be (typically) inactive in free agency ... and maybe penny-pinch on guys like Damone Clark. Clark started just two games in 2024, totaled 28 tackles and logged more snaps on special teams (71 percent) than defense (just 18 percent). His release would net just $3.3 million in savings, but every dollar counts, and he’s simply not an impact player.

It's interesting that's the first guy to come to mind for this list, lol. Steelers or Diggs would be much more noteworthy.
 
We probably should keep an eye on one of the Bear's starting MLBers ..........we hired the DC from last season

The Bears are currently projected to have $63 million in cap space, but they also have a lot of work to do to build around Caleb Williams this offseason in hopes that he can take another step under Ben Johnson's tutelage. That might mean saving money in certain areas to reallocate it where it matters most. As such, middle linebackers Tremaine Edmunds and T.J. Edwards could be cut considerations. Edmunds carries a $17.4 million cap hit, though $13 million of that would remain dead money unless he was designated a post-June 1 cut -- and the $6.8 million in cap relief then wouldn't take effect until June, negating the benefit in free agency. Edwards is easier to move on from, with his potential release resulting in $5.5 million in savings. They were second (Edwards had 129) and third (Edmunds had 110) in tackles for the Bears last season, but both earned middling defensive grades from Pro Football Focus. If Chicago's front office sees more value investing the resources devoted to these linebackers in positions that would better protect or unlocking their franchise quarterback, we could see one or both veterans released this offseason.
 
I’d love to be able to ask either one of the idiots exactly how much they know about each of those players off the top of their head.

It would likely explain plenty.

They don't need to know they will tell us that usual, we like him, he's been around the league for many years, we had a high grade on him in the draft, we really like his intangibles
