The crunch is bad. There’s got to be a two for one - if not, frankly, two of them, or perhaps trading a player for picks.
I think the bottom of your list is more like this (which makes the roster crunch less crunchy):

So it looks to me that they only have 14 in place, and room for either a player from the bottom group or someone else. No worries.
