Pittsburgh's Salary Cap Problems

Stay connected for news and updates

According to Pro Football Talk, a source with knowledge of the cap numbers, here are the seven teams that were in the red:  Raiders ($17.3 million), Steelers ($11.5 million), Texans ($8.5 million), Vikings ($5.6 million), Lions ($5 million), Cowboys ($3.7 million), and Panthers ($939,000).

We will assume that includes all contract restructuring they have done. So the question is, who would you cut if you were the Pittsburgh Steelers? For discussion purposes, we will go with straight salary even though cap salary can be different.

According to Sports City Sports News Service, it appears that Flozelle Adams was already cut and I still think they are $10 million over the cap. What would you do?

My picks:

Hines Ward WR $3,000,000
Byron Leftwich QB $1,750,000
Aaron Smith DE $4,500,000
