salary cap released

[O-Ther]

Just saw this and it may have been discussed elsewhere but apparently much like AT&T and rollover data there is now rollover CAP space. This article outlines every team's new Adjusted CAP with whatever they didn't spend last year.

To make clicking unnecessary:

 

On Monday, the NFL announced that the salary cap for the 2015 season will be $143.28 million, although every team will have a different amount of money available to them.

 

Under the current Collective Bargaining Agreement, teams have the option to carry over unused cap space from the 2014 season. The NFLPA has released a list of how much each team carried over from last season and their adjusted cap total for 2015.

 

Jaguars – $168,486,107 adjusted cap

Browns – $161,767,400 adjusted cap

Eagles – $159,872,378 adjusted cap

Jets – $156,149,394 adjusted cap

Titans – $154,353,578 adjusted cap

Dolphins – $152,926,937 adjusted cap

Colts – $152,423,392 adjusted cap

Bengals – $152,130,435 adjusted cap

Raiders – $151,872,756 adjusted cap

Packers – $151,471,106 adjusted cap

Broncos – $150,066,024 adjusted cap

49ers – $149,855,980 adjusted cap

Vikings – $149,627,960 adjusted cap

Panthers – $149,371,637 adjusted cap

Cowboys – $148,578,313 adjusted cap

Cardinals – $148,515,866 adjusted cap

Seahawks – $148,257,738 adjusted cap

Redskins – $146,591,745 adjusted cap

Falcons – $146,248,815 adjusted cap

Chiefs – $146,144,200 adjusted cap

Texans – $146,025,746 adjusted cap

Bills – $145,781,930 adjusted cap

Bears – $145,168,434 adjusted cap

Ravens – $145,131,127 adjusted cap

Saints – $145,092,430 adjusted cap

Buccaneers – $144,909,889 adjusted cap

Rams – $144,673,387 adjusted cap

Patriots – $144,578,084 adjusted cap

Lions – $144,317,991 adjusted cap

Steelers – $144,058,469 adjusted cap

Giants – $143,411,883 adjusted cap

Chargers – $142,972,612 adjusted cap (The Chargers carried over $1,500,00, but had their total adjusted downward because of a loss of $1,807,388 due to other adjustments)

 

Yes cap rollover has been discussed here, but your effort is still appreciated. The Saints have around $165 million in contracts for 2015, so even with the rollover, they are still about $20+ million over the cap.

 

Coverting roster bonuses to signing bonuses from Junior Galette, Jairus Byrd, Jimmy Graham, and Curtis Lofton will shave $20+ million from their cap to put them under, but to sign free agents, they will have to cut some players or re-negotiate more contracts.

I highly doubt Cam is getting 23 million a year.

 

We shall see. Luck supposedly is getting 25. the Seahawks have said they'll make Russell the highest paid in the league. QB contracts are going to continue trending up for franchise guys, just as they always have. Following the patterns, this new class of franchise guys (Cam, Luck, Wilson) will raise the bar just as others in years past have. 

 

I'd love to think Cam is staying for 18-20 million a year, but I also think people banking on that are slightly crazy. Especially if they're judging today's market based on contracts signed a few years ago, from which the cap has risen tens of millions of dollars. Sure he helped deliver a Super Bowl...but Joe Flacco was the highest paid player in the league when he signed his 20 million a year contract. With a 123 million dollar cap. And has since been leapfrogged by Rodgers and Ryan (a lesser QB than Cam IMO). And soon will be jumped again by Luck, Wilson, Cam, and whatever other young QBs come after them. 

 

Contracts aren't going to stagnate or go down for top players until the league starts losing money and the cap decreases. Read...not in the near future.

i am lost at how out lets are reporting we have max about 15 million in cap space. someone correct me if I am wrong but I am coming up with that Carolina should have $18,642,313 in cap space. I took our first 51 contracts and came up with a number of $118,784,305. I got the figures from Spotrac. I then took the dead money where I applied DeAngelo Williams as a June 1st cut and came up with $11,945,019. The NFL released today the official adjusted cap numbers for each team and had Carolina at $149,371,637. Now if you don't include draft pick slots for now, I am coming up with over $18 million. Does anyone see where I may have gone wrong? Thanks.

I used overthecap.com and I came up with $13.9M. But that was without any deals (DWill) we've made. The Matrix is not perfect Trevor.

We can only hope they restructure Drew Brees and will be stuck with him for awhile.

Is this news? That doesn't seem like a surprise one way or the other.
