FROM THE LOCKER ROOM
The booth on Lions run away with it, 35-7
Riley Parker: "New York came out and threw 29 times against a Lions defense that sacked them once, which is a choice that gets you 7 points and a 28-point hole; Justin Fields's 4 touchdown passes is the kind of afternoon you regret forever in week 3."
Jaylen Rivers: "Detroit's looking like the team that was always going to be here come fall, and New York just got a reminder that 1-2 isn't a place you come back from easy. Fields had the day that changes how people think about him going forward."

Lions run away with it, 35-7
28 points separated these two, and Lions had all of them. Justin Fields did the damage for Lions — 19/25, 306 yards, 4 TD. Jameson Williams did the catching for Lions — 5 catches, 123 yards, 2 TD. Make it 3 consecutive games past 100 for Jameson Williams. Total yards: Lions 412, Jets 245.

$52.1M comes off the books at the end of this season — 22 contracts, 20% of what you are carrying.

| Jared Goff | QB | 89 | 31 | 3 | $37.6M | $422,472 |
| Amon-Ra St. Brown | WR | 96 | 26 | 3 | $33.1M | $344,896 |

| Alex Highsmith | REDG | 90 | 24 | 2 | $14.5M | $161,111 |
| Aidan Hutchinson | LEDG | 94 | 26 | 5 | $10.1M | $107,872 |

| Sam LaPorta | TE | 88 | 25 | 6 | $6.7M | $76,477 |
Per OVR point is a division, not a verdict — a cap hit over an overall rating, nothing more. Whether a number is a problem depends on the position and the player, and that is your call rather than the site's.
There is no "cut him and save this much" here on purpose: a release in Madden carries dead money, and the export does not carry the figure — so that saving is not something this site can work out, and guessing at it would be guessing at the one number that decides whether the advice is any good.
