Team-by-Team Cap Space (Cowboys & Redskins LOST)

[Rblake]

The colts are actually about $33M under the cap. That's counting the $38M in dead space $ from cut contracts.

If it were $11M under, we might not even be able to sign our draft picks and have enough people to play a game this yr.

 

[Slateman]

Where did you get those numbers?

 

[EmpireWF]

Theyre from PFT but they're only as of Friday afternoon. Moves after then are not included

Disregard the salary cap, according to Rayman here it's just a hypothetical number of what the team is/can spend. It's easily moveable on a teams part by waiving a magical wand over their computers in the accounting offices.

We have nearly 50 million in cap space, but who the fuck is going to want to come play in Cincinnati. I would absolutely love for us to make a run at Finnegan or Mario Williams, but no way they want to come here. It'll be interesting to see how we spend the money tho.

Dang I thought Dallas was going to be at least in the teens.

I believe the rookie contracts are factored into the cap space beforehand. Correct me if i'm wrong but i am pretty sure thats how it works.

NFL is taking away millions of dolllar of salary-cap space from Cowboys and Redskins for how they front-loaded deals during uncapped year.

Jaguars with $40M.

GET MARIO FUCKIN WILLIAMS, PLZ!!!!!

 

[Rudi]

Holy shit.

Cowboys lose $10 million in cap space, Redskins lose $36 million in space. Can split it over 2012 and 2013 any way they want.All that money goes to 28 other teams -- $1.6 million each -- except for Saints and Raiders, who don't get any but don't lose any.

SOCIALISM!

"A provision in the collective bargaining agreement allowed teams to move any leftover money from last year's salary cap into this year's. The Jaguars took advantage of that and elected to roll around $30 million into this year's cap, according to a source."

So right now we have around 70 million in cap room, but with bonuses and escalators in contracts they will have around 56 million in cap room to spend.

Fucking Chris Gamble man... guy was a PRIME target to restructure his deal but then had a great season last year. Think that option is out. Thomas Davis 95% will be cut and re-signed to avoid his I believe 8 mil roster bonus, a few more casualties coming with the Panthers.These cap numbers can fluctuate so much before any deals are even done I don't look too much into them.

Redskins, Cowboys lose millions in salary cap space

Redskins, Cowboys lose millions in salary cap space

The NFL is taking away millions of dollars of salary-cap space belonging to the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins for front-loading contracts during the uncapped 2010 season, according to league sources.

The salary cap is projected to be $120.6 million in 2012, but the Cowboys will lose $10 million, while the Redskins will be docked $36 million in cap space, sources said.

Dallas and Washington can split the cap loss over the 2012 and '13 seasons in whatever form they prefer, with $1.6 million each going to the other 28 NFL teams, the sources said.

The New Orleans Saints and Oakland Raiders are the only two teams that will not receive a portion of the money.

During the pre-lockout 2010 season, the collective bargaining agreement expired and the league operated without a salary cap.

According to sources, the Cowboys and Redskins took immediate cap hits during the 2010 season that normally would have been spread out over the length of the contracts, giving them an advantage that other NFL owners found unfair.

The league took an abnormally long time to release the 2012 cap number, due in part to the fact that the league was trying to decide how to handle the issues, the sources said.

According to the sources, the deductions are not termed as violations, but are part of a recent agreement the NFL and the Players Association made to raise the salary cap number while preserving benefit increases and the performance pool.

Well, the supposedly good news for the Skins on the RG3 trade gives way to horrible news on the salary cap deal...wonder how much of the hit they'll take this year, with about $30 mil to work with?
