Starting Thursday, teams can begin cutting veteran players to get under the salary cap. Though teams don't have to get under the cap until the beginning of March, the list of potential cuts could be better at certain positions than some positions on the list of unrestricted free agents.

Following is a list of potential cuts. Some of these players will restructure their contracts and stay with their teams. Other may not be released until a team needs salary cap room. Also, for a list of where each team stands in terms of the salary cap, click here.
