After seeing all the bust that TD has drafted and the JJ trade, this is the final straw for me. As of Thursday on average 15 million of cap space is left per team ...we only have 6 million left in our cap space.

That's right the Washington Redskins have more cap space then us, the Eagles have 3 times more cap space then us. It's called bad management and only TD is to blame.

Can you prove him wrong?

[AthensDirtyBird]

How In the **** are the saints going to sign brees?

[jfalconsp]

You're a moron, look at teams with less cap space than us-- basically all playoff teams. New Orleans, Giants, Baltimore, Pittsburgh. Wait didn't one of those teams win the Super Bowl? Yeah their management must blow too.

Look up the words "outlier" and "skew" in the dictionary. Teams like Denver and Cinci are these so called outliers. They skew the cap averages. Oh, and you're a filthy, slimy, smelly no-good troll. Or just an idiot.

its not about right or wrong. It's about these dudes complaining bout everything lately. Just getting annoying

[Faithful Falcon]

You do realize that all of the teams with a ton a cap space did not make the playoffs last season, right?  I would still like to know what makes the Julio Trade so bad...

[Psychic Gibbon]

Really? This is just getting sad now.

"BAWWWW! THE TEAM HAS LESS CAP SPACE THAN LOSER FRANCHISES! TD IS TERRIBLE!"

[ltstorm2]

It says "debbie downer" right over his avatar.  What'd you expect?

[paulitik]

Dude, dont' ever compare TD to Washington. THe Skins are a perennial nightmare, and we've won 4 years in a row, No other NFC team can say that the last 4 years.

We tend to notice the bad picks, but we take for granted the good ones.

I'll admit, I'm not thrilled with some of TDs picks in terms of OL and CB, but some of his bad FA signings, I was on board with, so I don't have much room to criticize.

You have to look at being a GM in the NFL kind of like batting average. If you're batting .500, your actually doing pretty well. TD is doing well. He could definitely be doing better, because Ted Thompson is batting like .700. I'd say TD is a B graded GM, but he's young, and could very well  evolve into an A.

Right and they have all won SB you do realize that right? I would love to have 1 dollar in cap space left and 1 SB win to go with it. Instead it has given us a one and done team while having plenty of holes to fill with less draft picks and money to fill them with....and I'm the moron??

something these trolls also forgot.....its not always about numbers

You do realize that works both ways right? Look at Arizona cap number, but keep on calling me names it makes you look so smart.

[phattywankenobi]

All these teams did was push money back to later years.  They over paid for the dream team last year that turned out to be a nightmare.  They will pay for it cap wise down the road.  The Redskins have been playing the win now pay later game for years and they still suck.  The Eagles win now pay later found them sitting at home in January.  They will have to cut good players much like many other teams had to do this year to get under the cap.

Denver and Cinci are 25-24mil away from the cap. Arizona is 14mil. Yeah, they totally offset....

Finally a decent response without the childish name calling. I understand what you are saying but what really great pick has TD done. In my opinion the Ryan pick doesn't count, just about any GM would of picked him seeing we had no QB at the time, it's not like he found him in the 6 round à la Brady. If you go down the list there has been a lot more misses then hits. I don't see that .500 ranking. Then look at his FA signings, and now the cap space we have compared to the rest of the teams in the league.

There is really no way of cutting it, TD in my opinion is not the GM the people think he is, just my opinion though but I do believe I have the numbers to back it up.

Tell you what Einstein remove Arizona, Denver and Cincy numbers , take the new total and divide by 29 , let me know what you get. I'm sure the difference is going to be HUGE !!!
