    Release Jordy or Cobb to clear cap room.

    Sign Graham

    Move Ty Montgomery to slot WR position.

    Any Takers?
    Depends on what that $6.7M means. Is that salary and bonuses? This will be his last big check and I'm betting he'll want $20M up front to sign for 4. Puts his cap hit at $10M if he's getting $6 per for salary and incentives.

    Here's some comparisons between him and Cobb. Graham hit Seattle's cap for $10M in 2017. Cobb was $12.7M in 2017. Cobb(27) is 4 years younger than Graham(31).

    This is with Bart Hundler at QB vs RusWill. Not sure what you're gaining at that point.

    Edit:
    Nelson plays outside, but here's a comparison just for fun.

    Nelson(32) hit GB's cap for $12.5M in 2017 and is a year older than Graham

    Why compare Cobb to Graham? They play different positions. Graham would be an upgrade at TE. So if Montgomery could replace Cobb at slot, it would be an overall plus.

    Jordy's days of playing primarily outside may be over.

    Mostly because you said cut one of them to sign Graham. Graham plays "TE"....sorta. He's more like a large slot receiver so he's not too far off from Cobb. If he's amazing, and he played with an MVP candidate QB, shouldn't his numbers have been better?

    I guess I'm saying, I'm not sold on Graham at $10M.
