At the very least if you're going to take the cap hit anyway, trade them.
Agreed, but finding a replacement for any of them may not be that hard.

For example, what did KGB give the team in 2005 that can't be replaced? Certainly not his sacks or pressures, he didn't have a good year rushing the passer. If somehow GB does get Mario Williams, and if Montgomery continues to look like he deserves some playing time, KGB's days could be numbered.

Saving cash for the Packers is not a bad thing either. If you can replace KGB's $4 million 2006 salary (or whatever it is) with a player making a million or less, the Packers have saved signficant cash.

Trading would be tough, because the team you trade with has to pick up the salaries agreed to. If they aren't worth their salaries in GB, they won't be worth their salaries to anyone else either.
