6. I think if I’m guessing where Jairus Byrd lands—assuming he’s not tagged by the Bills—I’m guessing Tampa Bay. His dad, Gil Byrd, is an assistant coach in the secondary for the Bucs. Not many instances of father coaching son in NFL history.
I'd absolutely love it but I don't know how we could dump Goldson to make it happen
Don't see it. Like you said brads, Goldson has us by the balls.
What is the cap hit to dump Goldson? We've got a lot of room maybe you eat the hit on Goldson this year to add a much, much, much more useful player.
I don't see it happening.
I doubt we would trade Goldson right?
Or is "could" the better question?

His contract becomes more tradeable after we give him his roster bonus.

Whatever the number, it would be worth it to bring in a player who represents a significant upgrade to the FS position. Problem is, Lovie has talked about how Goldson will be a valuable piece to the defense...which is discouraging to see that Goldson already has the wool pulled over the staffs eyes.

...would you want his contract? Unless we've taken the hit for a lot of bonuses and the remaining salary is low no one wants to pay him what he's earning.

Depends what you define as "dump". If he's traded he cost us nothing against the cap. If he's cut he counts $9M in 2014 and $3M in 2015. If we trade him after his roster bonus, he counts $3M against our cap and then we're done with it and the other team takes on the rest of the guarantees.
Sign him and run a base 4-2-5!

And Schiano told us all how much he liked Josh Freeman. I don't pay attention to any of this stuff.

Trades cost us the bonus money being accelerated. Cut and traded has the same effect IIRC. Ugh, that sack of crap for $9m sucks but I might take that hit this year to get Byrd who will help us a lot more than the human foul.

Pretty sure if he is cut we have to take that cap hit all at once as a $12M one.

Maybe, I don't know. Never seen a contract structured like this where the player was ever in question of being let go.
