Numbers from a different thread:

Adjusted Salary Cap


$188,783,459

Subtract:


Active Contracts:
$152,106,135
Dead Cap:
$1,296,881
Draft Pool Cap:
$8,974,818
2017 Rollover:
$11,583,459

Remaining Cap Space= $14,822,166

The rollover is earmarked for extensions of current contracts, so looking to spend $15 is the same as spending what we have available.

They didn't lie, they were completely honest.

I think we are overpaying for lame talent. Dumping a few guys and renegotiating some contracts would benefit this team greatly.
