Good/Bad News for a Change - 2013 18MM cap penalty probably (not) going away

The answer as always - Vinny.

"Vinny Cerrato has traded two 1sts, two 2nds, and two 3rds - for $5M in cap space. The Redskins used the $5M to sign free agent safety Adam Archuleta."

Wow......that really makes you.......spit up in your mouth.

Thank God those days are over.

Will Redskins’ final appeal of salary cap reduction be ‘informal’? (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2013/02/22/will-redskins-final-appeal-of-salary-cap-reduction-be-informal/)

Looks like the final appeal will be an informal one.

Translation: "Bro, come on..."

Time to move on from this. I really do not care about the cap space. Not a real big deal. Hopefully we can get everyone back healthy, have a great draft and maybe add a piece here and there through free agency.

@Rich_Campbell: My top takeaway from Indy: the Redskins' $18M cap penalty is quite disruptive, per NFL sources. Tough decisions, frustration lie ahead.

Looking on the bright side, we'll be able to sign every blue-chip FA in 2014 because our payroll will be so low.

If nothing else, at least we are being super annoying

Well according to HTTR 247, we're about to restructure Halls Deal, so that should soften it a little.

Redskins put contract talks on hold as they work to recoup salary cap space (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/football-insider/wp/2013/02/25/redskins-put-contract-talks-on-hold-as-they-work-to-recoup-salary-cap-space/)

"The Redskins have put contract negotiations with some of their players on hold, telling agents and players they remain hopeful they can recoup some of the salary cap space that was cut by the NFL last year, according to several people familiar with the situation.

Redskins officials have told those agents and players that they cannot negotiate in earnest until the salary cap matter is resolved. The players include some eligible for free agency in March and others who face the possibility of release unless their contracts are reworked, those people said. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because the team does not want such issues discussed publicly.

The team has told parties involved that it hopes to reach a resolution by late this week."
