Salary Cap question now with 2 recent cuts?

BronxBombers : 2/10/2016 11:46 am
where are we at now?
Let's just say

We don't have to do as much bargain bin shopping this offseason
Well we were at $42,857,206 cap space  
USAF NYG Fan : 2/10/2016 11:59 am : link
Cut Beason for $4,500,000.
Cut Schwartz for $2,991,666.

and also Beatty if recent news is correct.

Cut Beatty for $4,175,000.

New total cap space: $54,523,872. Almost $12 million more.

I think the $12 million could go towards a new OT and OG. They had to replace MLB anyway.

2 guys left on 50 man roster now add up to 900,000. 10,766,000 in cap savings. If Beatty is june 1 cut then another 3,312,500 will be added on. Hopefully, I got that right

My numbers were pre-June 1st. Post June would give about $2.5 million (Beatty) but they are not waiting until June 1st.

You can cut a guy now, but designate it a "post-June 1" cut. IIRC, you can do this for 2 guys.

Though it's unlikely that any of them will get this designation as the Giants already have plenty of cap space.
According  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 2/10/2016 12:25 pm : link
to my calculations, the three cuts create $12.27 million in cap space.
More to come
