Salary Cap (merged)

Maybe, just MAYBE, we are thinking about resigning Cooley and Taylor.

Hearing things like this makes it feel like Christmas.

Cap sheets have been updated (March 8). Should be on the site soon.

I dont believe this year is the problem, over the next few years fat paychecks with significant amounts left on bonuses will kick in, so we cant sign big priced guys this year because it will kick us in the rear in a year or so..

I know it might be hard to believe, but the front office is taking a different approach this offseason.




I agree. I think they finally learned their lesson.

Hearing things like this makes it feel like Christmas.I'd be very happy if that happened. I think either of those guys would command a ton of money on the open market so I'd love to get them wrapped up before it comes to that.

And then I open my Redskins bill and realize its not.

We've been hearing that since 2000.

Every year the Skins restructure deals, give out new deals, etc., to avoid cap hell.

I sure as hell hope that's what they are doing. I would like to think so. The way that they have approached Free Agency this year leads me to think that they are about to build a team for now as well as the future and not just for the next 3 years. I believe Cooley and Taylor will end up getting their extentions sooner rather than later. I like the way that they are doing things this year. Hopefully the room is being made so keeping Springs doesn't hamper the extentions of those two. I think Dockery leaving sent up a red flag, a little too late but I think it was in fact sent. Lock them up early while you can.

I don't think we'll have any idea if this kind of "non-spending spree," as you put it, will continue in the future until this time next season.
If the team does well this upcoming season, say 11-5 and at least makes the playoffs, we probably will continue on this path.
But if the team goes out and has another piss-poor season I wouldn't be surprised to see Snyder jump right back into his free-spending ways in order to finally find the quick fix.

I don't...I think it will be on a player who is out basis!
