Question about the Uncapped season...

Recommended Posts

How does this change teams after this uncapped year?

If a team goes out and spends 40 million over what the current cap is set at (and it wont matter because the year is uncapped)

How does that effect a team in 2011 if a new CBA is reached and teams are over the new cap limit?

i WOULD guess that teams would have to cut those players? But even then they would take a cap hit anyways...

I guess this whole uncertainty will make teams conservative when spending this offseason????

Can big spending this offseason KILL teams in the future- its hard to say considering no one knows what the new CBA will say...

Food for thought I guess...

Any answers?

I would imagine a new CBA instituting a new salary cap would include some sort of buffer period to allow team's to get back under the cap. No way the NFLPA would agree to a new CBA that would potentially lead to many, many players being cut due to the new cap. That would also create a situation where many teams could not sign those cut players due to being very near the new cap as well.

Since it looks like a new CBA won't be worked out (I think the owners are set on a lockout) it really won't matter in 2011. And because of this, I think most owners will not be breaking the bank to sign players, just the opposite, saving their money. But if someone like J Jones or Snyder does, I would assume they would have to make some cuts to get under the cap (if one exists) once a new CBA is worked out.

    • I think starting this week you gotta work in Tremayne out there.   You don't got to bench XL but Tremayne just seems to be clearly a better WR at this stage (despite XL having the physical tools).   I think waiting on Coker is malpractice.    
    • I don't like much about this team BUT WE ARE GONNA WIN THIS THING BABY LETS GOOOOOOO
    • I agree completely.  I’m not absolving XL of his errors and shortcomings, but week 2 was definitely less an issue with him as it was QB and coaching/scheme.     It’s becoming abundantly clear, not just with XL, but with everyone on the offense, our coaches are not crafting a game plan to play to their players’ strengths, but rather they’re creating a game plan and then trying to fit guys into it where each position is treating each player as interchangeable and they’re not.  The breakdown I watched also discussed how no one expected XL to be destroying people with his route running coming out - that would have to be refined.  So, the poo we’re seeing, we can’t really blame him for.  He has gotten open enough often, but the passes are often off-target.  And he would likely excel more as a guy who can threaten with the deep ball to take the top off the defense, but we don’t have a QB that can throw that pass.
