You beat me to it Irish, that is it.
For the longest time I have not like the rengotiaton game with the cap. Every offseason we start over the cap and we have work our way below it.
Every year we have players on the roser that are high paid and are not contributuing enough to warrant their pay. Then we can not get rid of them cause of the cap hit or we take a big hit. This year Jon Jansen and Fred Smoot are the example. We can not cut them even though it would better for the team to get rid of their bloated salaries and subpar play with younger/cheaper players.
There guys on this sight that have called what Snyder has done with the cap "genious". I never thought it to be genious because ultimately we do not win enough on the field. It is clever but it has onot worked.
We trade draft picks for old veterans. Then when we do use the few draft picks, under Snyderatto we have drafted mostly skill position players.
All of this it goes against what the repeat Super Bowl winning teams are doing.
While Snyder might be clever in getting around the salary cap, his teams have had no success on the field.
