Just under $20 million in cap room by releasing them. McGahee was the least surprising though I do worry they might miss having a veteran backup RB.. Ive heard that its likely they'll try to keep Heap with a reduced contract but I dont know if he'd stay for less money.

As for Mason, he's been Flaccos #1 target but with Boldin and Torrey Smith and the possibility of using some of that extra cap room to grab Sidney Rice or Santonio Holmes, it was a no brainer. Personally rooting for Holmes since signing Sidney Rice means they have to redo Ray Rice's Jersey (R. Rice and S. Rice) but I guess if thats the worst problem I can come up with its not that bad...lol Plus Steve Smith from Carolina wants to be traded to either the Ravens or Chargers..I would love to see the Ravens WR be Boldin/Holmes or Rice/Steve Smith/Torrey Smith..

Also, they signed Damien Berry from the U as an undrafted Rookie to probably replace McGahee backup to Ray Rice.
