Posted December 11, 2018 A $10M increase each year is kind of a moot point when you consider how much contracts have steadily inflated as well. UK13, Ergo Proxy, vel and 1 other like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 11, 2018 That just means there's more money for the next sub par qb who's going to get paid like he's won 20 superbowls Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2018 Means ppl like Coleman and Beasley are going to get paid on the open market. Somewhere Grady and Julio are smiling as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) good for the players. so if players get 47% or "defined" revenue, that means the NFL is grossing,what, 400 Mil? LOL, the nfl is getting around 8 Bil last year..so the players are only seeing 1/4 of that 8 bill Edited December 12, 2018 by VTCrunkler falconfanEST1989 likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spotrac is showing $189.0M as of today. Spotrac is also showing we have $4.2M available on the current 2018 cap. OverThe Cap shows $1.7M which is much closer to the $1.3M the NFLPA are showing. We should have about $25M to start with before incentives, cap casualties and extensions get factored in.

We should have about $25M to start with before incentives, cap casualties and extensions get factored in. I think we will have about $40 million to play with on extensions, FA, rookie deals by the time we cut Alford, Schraeder, Reed, Bryant, and renounce Beasley Should be able to handle Jarrett, Julio extensions...resign necessary depth guys, then go after a stud DL and a solid LG or RT... Our draft capital will go towards DL, OL, CB, RB, TE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it will depend on June 1 designations....and while I’m sold we shouldn’t bring back Beasley, I’m not certain that TD and DQ won’t pay Vic $11 mil...too prideful to admit a failure pick on Top 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 12, 2018 We should have 50+ million if we play it smart. After giving Julio and Grady some of that money we will be around 30-35m. More than enough to get a real pass rusher and a WLB. Then the rest of the money can go to depth. Our draft should be all O-Line and D-Line.

This We should have more than enough money to be players in FA. Depending on where we land in the draft, if we're in play for Quinnen or Oliver, they need to go hard after a guy like Billy Turner to play LG. The rest should be to bolster the DL. At that point, you can take a stud DL in the first and a good OL early second and third. A guy like Cody Ford or Yodny Cajuste would bring power and athleticism to the right side for a change.

Posted December 12, 2018 Unfortunately a bigger cap just increases the amount of $ Jarrett etc will get, they will probably count for a similar % of cap space regardless. Biggest benefit is it makes Ryan and Matthews contracts easier to manage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
