I think if Russell is the replacement, they can't sign him until the season opening roster is set (not sure what date that is).

Is there a time lag where you have to be cap compliant and when you can put guys on LTIR. I thought you were allowed to exceed the cap by 10%, but on a specified day, your team needs to be cap compliant or you will have overage penalties the following year.
