Cutting Hurns would free up $5 million in cap space and would allow for some additional cap space for extending Cooper.
Give Cooper a larger cap hit this year in order to lower his cap hit for the next 4-5 years.
We saw what he did for this team last year.
He's worth it.
Get a deal done asap.
It's going to require a 5 year, 100M contract for Cooper.
The 1 year, 5M for Hurns won't affect Coopers contract.
I don't expect Hurd to make the roster but not because of cap issues per se.
The top 3 WRs are Cooper, Gallup and Cobb.
These players will be competing for 2 or 3 roster spots:
Hurns - Returning from nasty leg break.
Cedrick Wilson - 2018 draft pick.
Tavon Austin - Speed and Punt Returner
Noah Brown - They love his blocking.
Devin Smith - Jets 2nd 2015, Has ability if healthy.
Jaylon Guyton - UDFA with elite speed.
Jon-vea Johnson - UDFA with elite speed.
Also RB/WR Tony Pollard likely plays some snaps as a WR (i.e On the field with Zeke). In college he played more snaps than not with starting RB Darrell Henderson also on the field.
