Current cap room?
I am very confused as to how much room we currently have after Brunell's new deal. How much space do we have left?
And how much will be expected to have after we cut others such as Hall?

Re: Current cap room?

Re: Current cap room?
We have 10 million in Cap Room. After restructuring Brunell and Releasing Fauria.
Go to skinsfan.com and look at the salary cap link. This link was before we released Fauria and Restructured Brunell. We should have about 15 million by the start of Free agency if we cut Wynn, Hall, Patten, and Collins. |

Re: Current cap room?
The JLC article says 6 right now and maybe 10 in the future.
Welcome to the site, and I dont think that site is correct.

Re: Current cap room?
Current Room: $6.0 million
Potential Savings from Cuts: John Hall - $1.5 million Renaldo Wynn - $2.5 million Phillip Daniels - $1.9 million David Patten - $750K (according to LaCanfora that is, Canuck's numbers say we'd take a hit by cutting Patten, so I'm confused on this one. I trust CC more.) Todd Collins - $1.2 million

Re: Current cap room?
Currently 4.2 mil under the cap - Thought to be the result of prorating the Roster or Other Bonus money owed this year, can be done without player approval or restructure - and through a restructure already done (Jansen).
MOVES ALREADY MADE Brunnel EXPECTED - Expect to see a salary reduction, I would hope he would go down to the going rate for backups (1 mil) but trying to give the low side for the team I will say 2.5 mil salary for next year is probable. 3.7 mil saved ACTUAL -Restructured with a salary cut and saved us 4.38 mil( Not confirmed as the actual details have not been released could be more or less ) THRASH EXPECTED -No ST player is worth his cost = 1.3 mil (Not sure since I think he restructured, but based on what is known now) ACTUAL -He restructured and will cost us 1.105 mil savings = .320 mil FAURIA EXPECTED -cut and save 1 mil ACTUAL -CUT = savings 1 mil VINCENT EXPECTED -Try to resign for vet min. A 5th safety is not worth a extra cap hit of = 1.375 mil ACTUAL -CUT = savings of 1.375mil So far we have saved 4.2 (starting point) 7.075 mil already saved Total CAP ROOM AVAILABLE S FAR = 11.275 Signings to date Frost = 850 K tender - Rule of 51 .285 mil = .565 mil Pucillo = .435 vet min - Rule of 51 .285 mil = .150 mil Signings so far = .715 mil additional charges to this years cap # CURRENT CAP SPACE = 10.56 MIL NOW LETS LOOK AT MOVES THAT CAN STILL BE MADE Other possible moves Duckett- will probably opt out of his final year .700 Hall = 1.5 mil savings -PROBABLE Todd Collins = Make him a coach and save 1.025 mil -NEWS REPORTS SAY PROBABLE Daniels = Production does not match Contract = 1.4 mil (If roster bonus was paid and prorated - If not then save 1.9 mil) Patten - Cut and Save .725 mil (1.762 if cut after June 1st) - NEWS REPORTS SAY PROBABLE Salavea - If we get another DT through FA or the Draft = .720 Wynn = 4th DE not worth the cost = 2 mil Savings STILL MAKE ADDITIONAL CAP SAVINGS OF 8.07 Probable additional deals to be made Springs - Talk out of redskins park is he is wanted to take a pay cut to make him on par for the Safety Position. He will probably be gone and I would think they will make him a June 1st cut to save around 4 - 4.5 mil Other possible restructures - Taking current salary and reducing it to 1 mil and converting the rest to bonus over the life of the contract. (conservative estimates) - personally I wouldnt do any of these due to age and all of these players COULD be cutable after this year for net cap savings or small hits. Washington - 2 mil Griff - 2.2 mil Thomas - 2.25 mil Other possible restructures can save about 6.5 mil Without the other Possible restructures the skins can be 10.56 (currently under) 8.07 MIL (cuts) 4 - 4.5 (Probable Moves) ------------------------------ We can realistically be about 22.63 mil under the cap if the above moves are done without the restructures of Washington, Griff, and Thomas. ****ORIGINAL PREDICTION ****Grand total of 23.245 mil to 25.725 mil under the cap or 29.545 - 32.250 mil under if all possible or conceivable restructures are done. Thanks for reading this long thread. The are my ratings of what I think of the actual moves 1-5. *Update #1 - Updated MB's contract and Frosts and fixing the signings cap hit for the rule of 51. *Update #2 - Updated to add TJ Duckett as a probable cut since he will probably void his last year and currently ESPN has him listed as released. ****If any of my new numbers are wrong or if I miss a signing/restructure/ or release please inform me so that I can edit and correct. I want this to not be a pissing contest between my numbers are better then yours but I want this to be as accurate as possible for my own and other board members peace of mind and reference******* |

Re: Current cap room?
This is pretty accurate i would have to say. It comes from John Clayton, and calculates the Rule of 51 and everything.
