Remaining Cap Space (Top 12)

And this is with the most dead cap by a lot, of which most will be coming off the books in the next 1-2 years. We're 3-1 and looking good with an active payroll significantly less than every other good team. The infusion of young talent on this team in the last 2 years is frankly hard to believe.

I stand corrected as I just checked to make sure of my numbers, we are technically 3rd in dead cap behind Detroit and Philly, but still $8M more than the 4th highest.

 

Our active cap spending is $125M, which is by far the lowest. Next lowest is Detroit at $135M. We're spending $10M less on our players contributing this year than Detroit who is arguably the worst team in the league. And we're in the playoff mix. That's just crazy to me. The Bucs are spending $50M more on their players than us, that is 40% more. Are they 40% better than us? I'd say no way. Give us $50M to spend on the OL and we're a legit SB contender.

Deserves its own thread if you ask me

We have the 3rd most dead cap, and alot more than most teams.  The Lions have $10M more than us!  The Eagles have slightly more.

Yeah I double checked it myself before you did, see above post. There was a point in the offseason where we were by far the most dead cap space this year but Philly and Detroit have since added to their dead cap apparently. Regardless we are by far the lowest in active cap spending

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
