The tendering of our RFAs and the resigning of Rock Cartwright are not included in these numbers.
This analysis does not include any restructures of base salary which may have occurred. These would create even more cap room. If you know of any, please post them and I will update.

Nice post Schneed.
Some other factors:
- salary mins have increased which will reduce the cap room.
- option bonuses due in 2006 can now be prorated 5 years instead of 4 which increases the cap room.
- you added $4.4M in savings for Lavar, but you didn't include his $12M deadcap charge. His net deadcap charge will be around $8M ($12M - $4M).
I'm gonna try to get some new cap sheets up in the next few days even if I have to make a bunch of assumptions.
EDIT: Sorry just realized you did factor in the salary min increases into your calculations.
