The rookie pool itself is 8.3M, but they estimate the cap hit at just 2.7M.
Again, that isn't correct. The total value of year 1 rookie deals against the cap will be close to 8.3 million, again pick 31 is over 2 million by themselves. Because of the 51 rule most those guys from day 3 won't count this year but it is much higher than 2.7 for rookies to plan for.
