I wanted to find a good website that outlined the current players and their contracts so I could decide exactly what is happening with our Cap room.

We have a lot of money tied up in mediocre players. But, I wanted to share this link, I think it helps understand some of what is going on.

On a positive note, we lose a lot of dead weight next year.

First off remember that not every contract counts toward the cap. We will bring in 80 + players into camp but only so many of those count towards the cap, something like the top 53 until final roster cuts are made in August. Secondly, I don't get the worry as if it your money or the FO could restructure or extend more players if they wanted too sign someone else. The cap can be manipulated a number of ways.

Given Smith is a free agent in 2013 I expect to see an extension done in the next several months if not weeks. With that and the Wharton money which kicks in June 1st, and the (3) 500,000 credits we can take for three of the highest salary guys with 5 years experience in 2012, we should have more than enough to sign some guys if we want to do it.

      He was so much fun to watch as a player but is a prototypical example of the old "never meet your heroes" adage. Great player, not a great guy.

      Does Bryce deserve credit for game-winning drives?

      By Basbear · Posted

      Look.... if us BY "haters" give credit about his GWDs...... Will the BY stans also have honest discussion about the 55minutes before the last 5 in which BY has put up 9/20 for 78 yards 0 TDs???

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      The way they are handling now is how they should have handled it from the start instead of that you get a series, you a get a series. Let Chuba spell until he had some of his step back.  We definitely could have put a better showing against Buffalo and their weak run defense had we employed the same game plan we did against Green Bay. Saints were determined to stop the run and make Bryce beat them, Atlanta had similar plan and the coaches and Bryce were able to respond.  Rico although didnt have the best rushing game was vital in the passing game and his catch and run help get us into the redzone there at the end of regulation probably should have been a touchdown that out of bounds was a judgement call it wasn't conclusive and thus should have went with the original call on the field.  Roco brings that dawg to the offense that it shorely lacked up until Miami game. Interesting it was his call that help seal the win for us, glad the coaches were listening. Hope they can get a deal done and run it back next year.
