Redskins Salary Cap Status - 2020

salary cap also looks like it will be lower than expected

ESPN article says it's going up about 10 million this season.

This should jump in 2021 with new TV deals now that the CBA is through 2030 (my own assumption).

My projections of franchise tags with $198.2M salary cap.

CB: $16.338M
DE: $17.788M
DT: $16.126M
LB: $15.829M
OL: $14.781M
P/K: $5.105M
QB: $26.824M
RB: $10.278M
S: $11.441M
TE: $10.607M
WR: $17.865M

Scherff has been franchise tagged at $16.1 mill.

Although Cooper and Byron Jones May be available from the Cowboys in FA, I just don’t see the Redskins biting for either one.
Why not? Because both are going to be Uber-expensive.

The Redskins have already franchise tagged Scherff for $16.1 mill.
Although there are many suitors for TE Hooper, I predict the Redskins will WIN the bidding war for him. He’s the REDSKIN’s #1 target for 2020 FA!!That’s another $11 mill.
Then they want to sign Flowers - $4-6 mill.

For CB, I think Rivera will go for old Redskin’s Breeland AND Fuller. FS - ex-Panther Boston. For LB - Schobert from Cleveland.

For OT and WR #2 and TE#2 I think that Rivera will see if Kyle Smith can draft our way out of these holes on the team. Whatever we get for Trent Williams-whether a second or two thirds, plus our actual third rounder will go toward getting an OT, TE and WR.

For OT, the team will use the philosophy of throwing lots of jello on the wall to get something to stick - regarding getting getting a rookie OT to start. We will draft a bunch of OT’s, especially in UDFA , to get a winner and a project or two. Penn will be let go. Christian will be let go. TE in the draft is the backup to Hooper. WR in the draft will compete with Harmon.

I don't know about the likelihood of that, cuz none of the two will be cheap, but I sure would love it. It seems Breeland finally played to his full potential last season.

Isn’t that the case for most ex-Redskins players? Always seem to fly once they leave the FedEx Field nest.

After getting rid of TW, what is our current cap space?

After getting rid of TW, what is our current cap space?Overthecap looks like they moved him off ours and shows us with 35M. What I wonder is if we could conceivably release Alex Smith, take the hit this year and hit the ground running next year with no remaining BA issues?

I see we are number 2 with the most space.
