I think the reason we didn't see Weaver cut (at least not yet) is that, in spite of the high cap figure he holds, it looks like (at least from a glance at Keith's page) that cutting him would result in a net loss of $1.9 million. While Weaver's not worth his contract, he's not so bad that we feel that we need to take that loss. It's still considerably cheaper to keep him and have him compete for a spot on the bench than it is to cut him and Weaver's still decent enough depth. As long as the Texans don't consider him a starter, I have no problem with keeping him around when the alternatives are more expensive.

my information may be wrong, but i heard that cutting green and greenwood will save them close to 7 million in cap space.
