Giants Cutting DRC

This is somewhat puzzling.  The Giants, unable to extract a salary cut from star CB DRC, so have cut him.  This saves them 6.5M dollars right now, with only about 1M in dead money. This is puzzlning because if the Giants really believed a "quick turnaround" was possible, DRC would not have been their second cut - even if he was cut at all. Looking at the roster, you can easily find cut-able guys from this 3-13 team.  Also, with DRC, CB was not a big need, and without one it becomes a big need.  to go along with OL and their other big needs. Puzzling.
