What to do with remaining cap room?

Yep. This roster is getting close enough where with the right new HC, we should be able to pay a legit vet QB to come here if Corral ends up not working out

Yep, our cap situation for 2023 SUCKS!  At this point, the 2022 roster is what it is.  Adding another player or two isn't going to tip the scales to make us dramatically better.

Would be the most optimal.  Can realistically get approved to roll $10-12 mil, not the whole ~24ish mil we'll have post-draft signings.  So, we do still have 10-15 mil to work with (they'll probably want a slight buffer)  

Already set to have nearly $30 mil to spend and much less dead cap next year, could be looking at $40+ mil 2023 with Moore already re-signed.  Burns' contract will be a good chunk.

We clearly cleared 30 million in order to absorb a possible Baker Mayfield or Jimmy Garoppolo acquisition. Since that’s not happening we simply save it for next season 

League approves rollovers the day after the final regular season games so it will be fully dependent on who becomes available/how the cut season shakes out.  But yep, if no Jimmy or Baker, we'll likely be looking at a lot of rollover.

yes but we can get a lot of money by cutting under performers - Robby, Shaq, Elfein and others

You can pretty much mark Elf and Wilson off the list (that's 13.5 mil with not a lot of dead cap)

Robbie would be 21 mil savings, 9 mil dead cap (that's + another 11 mil)

Let's be conservative and say we rollover $12 mil

I also like Haynes but he's a virtually no dead cap next season, that's $3.5 mil savings cut

That's already $40 mil obvious non-Sal magic savings (and then the big looming question if we take the "out" on CMC's contract)

Cap has become so fluid and strategic, they'll figure it out.

Re-sign Burns, front load the deal, help our future cap out.  We used to have a ton of space next season. After restructures in the Watson push, re-signing DJ, etc., we're now over the cap for next season already. 

Just because we have it, doesn't mean to spend it to improve our mediocrity.

    • Poverty franchise behavior.  If you don't like him as a 3rd rounder then why'd you draft him there?  As others have said, they likely found out some new information and have buyer's remorse. Our FO didn't give DJ Johnson a hard time for being a bad pick.
    • Best I heard its a clause the bungals want to add. It prevents them form paying the full guaranteed amount if triggered. No one knows the details of the clause, but guesses are it relates to off-field stuff. Stewart is in the right here. Before they signed burrow, chase, and Higgins they were the cheapest team in the league bar none. Unlike tepper or jarrah Jones or any other NFL ownership, all Mike brown owns is the beagals. Every other owner has many other money making businesses, not bungals.  I still remember when Brenston Bunker was starting on WFNZ and he told the story about the beagals telling him to pick a used cup form a huge pile, LOLS! They been on hard knocks and I remember Marvin lewis telling the players not to take home Gatorade bottles........* but in that case, I believe some players were taking a back pack and filling it up with drinks. Still you make millions(around 200million) in net profit and Im sure coke gave the team those bottles, still... Its a 32 team billion business, someone has to the cheapest.....Panthers were around the next cheapest team before tepper bought them and he has POURED millions upon millions into the team. He bought a bubble that Richardson never would, so the team had to gather in a old building during the rain. He spent millions on coofus machines that he just gave away like the bubble. Tepper made that AC trailer a thing. I've trashed him about his concerts and taking away end zone seats from fans. But the guy will spend money any way in efforts to better the team, dang I just remembered the deal he gave Rhule- more than Andy Reid at the time.  I know results have not came, but Id 100% take Tepper over Mike brown as a owner.
    • There's no way they're shipping you some uniform you haven't seen lol.  I feel like they'd just refund you and ask if you wanted the new one when it launched. Probably just making the blues the primary, or a new helmet for a new alternate/variation.
