Cap figures update

[jptaylor84]

Just an update on the cap numbers guys, man I thought ours was bad then you see some teams lol, but shows we got some way to go to get out of this mess but were climbing up that list and if gettlemans correct two years time we will be ok.

Yeesh....right around $9 million to use in free agency. Yuck.

With a Godfrey cut, the cap looks a bit better. I think the team has 20 mil in cap space with the carryover.

Geoffrey cut/restructure will give us more and with DG doing a few more restructures I see us creeping toward 25M. I've done the math 10 times over, even at 25M, there is going to be one or two hard to swallow losses. Need to find that cheap talent in the draft and FA.

I doubt most of the teams under us have as many free agents as we do though, over 20 right?

25M seems like a really optimistic number. More like 20.

How could the Bengals and Broncos be so stacked up yet have so much cap space!

That's a good point.  The good news is....we can keep most of our team together.  I've said before that I'd would love to franchise the Krack, but maybe it's not feasible.  Still though minus Kracken we'd would have enough cap space to bring back the majority of our contributing FA's and then supplement with the draft.  Kracken is sort of 50/50 on big games anyway, and top tier OT's shut him down.   We weren't far off from beating San Fran.  It's the sexy thing to do to look at the WR,  but if we continue to over haul the offensive line, we'll make that QB sneak in the 1 against San Fran and prevent Cam from getting sacked in critical situations.  Definitely not against bringing in Nicks though.

 

I think Chris Lewan might still be available by the time our pick rolls around.  This guy is going to be a legit NFL tackle.  He shut Clowney down when they played.  That one famous hit Clowney had was a busted protection by the guard when Clowney was lined up inside.

I'm not that worried. I have complete faith in gettleman to make the right decisions. He seems nothing like hurney. With hurney you never knew what you were going to get besides disappointment. Getts strikes me a guy with actual common sense and a lot of football knowledge. Our franchise is on the serious up tick

[MtnProwler]

14M space + 5M Godfrey + 3M in cap increase which is expected to happen. We are already at 22 without any restructures. Now I'm not that educated on the Godfrey situation but it is no less than a savings of 2M.

Good drafting
