Redskins: New Contract breakdowns/cap info

we wouldn't even need to restructure. he'd go from 3/year (first three years) to 4.5mill a year over the last four... either he merits that paycheck or he doesn't. after the 4th year he can be cut for instant cap savings at any time.

So does this mean that we get more "cap friendly" over the next three years?

Guy, I'm interested in knowing where the Redskins rank in terms of payroll. Not really cap numbers, per se.

With all the talk of us over-spending, I wonder who actually has the highest payroll in the NFL. I'm tired of these arm-chair cap analysts on TV who critisize us year in and year out.

as of 2004 we had the highest.

So does this mean that we get more "cap friendly" over the next three years?

only if we don't continue adding more players with big bonuses and more massive restructuring efforts.

but we probably will ;) we lead the league in deadcap every year i believe (which is cap charges for players no longer on your roster).

that only goes to 2004 :/

says we had 117mill spent in 2004, 2005 would probably be less (only two minor signings and moss) and this year (obviously) is going to be more.

What's interestng is that in 2004 half of the teams with the highest payroll didn't make the playoffs. And I'm sure that '05 had a similiar number.

I'm confortable with us being highest paid as long as we're contenders.

Thanks for the info ThatGuy.

I've been working on my cap sheets and they're almost ready.

The contracts of Randle El, Archuleta, Lloyd, and Carter all expected to be similar. So let's use Archuleta as an example. His cap numbers would breakout like this:

Salary
2006 $585
2007 $595
2008 $1,000
2009 $4,000
2010 $5,000
2011 $6,000
2012 $5,000
Total $22,180

Cap Bonuses
2006 $1,000
2007 $1,167
2008 $1,367
2009 $1,617
2010 $1,950
2011 $1,450
2012 $1,450
Total $10,000

Other Bonuses
(none)

Cap Hits
2006 $1,585
2007 $1,762
2008 $2,367
2009 $5,617
2010 $6,950
2011 $7,450
2012 $6,450
Total $32,180

Yeah it will depend on how he does in the first 3 years of the contract. If he's good, the Skins will restructure the contract and prorate that big base salary in the 4th year over the remaining life of the contract.

Agreed.

Here's some info on Randle El. His salaries are announced and I expect his signing bonus to be similar to Archuleta ($6.5M up front, 5 $1M signing bonuses over the next 5 years). The numbers would break out like this:

2007 $595K
2008 $820K
2009 $4,000
2010 $4,250
2011 $4,500
2012 $5,000
Total $19,750
