But I stated elsewhere, at some point you have to sign some free agents just to field a team. AT the current rate of releasing players and signing only one, I don't see how we'll even have enough to fill the roster.

Next season is going to be another rough one.
Cap casualties open up another wave of free agents that we may pursue after all the other teams have blown their wad on the first wave.

I agree, we discard a serviceable players like Melvin and Hankins for other teams scraps... TEs that can't catch as an example. He's a great athlete though I hear. Lot's of potential in the Darrius Heyward-Bey mold

Y'all need to read slower....

Cap casualty means you release the player to save cap. Hankins was just a standard unrestricted free agent.
