Keep in mind that this is going off a $240 mil cap estimate, which is on the conservative side.  Some are predicting the cap to go as high as $256 mil.

As an example of what structure can do, Orlando Brown signed a deal worth $16 mil APY this past off-season and his cap hit this year is only $10.  Mike McGlinchey signed a deal with a $17.5 mil AAY and his 2023 cap hit was $6 million.  Jason Hargrave and Jawaan Taylor both got deals worth north of $20 mil AAV with $6 mil cap hits.  You can do a lot with structure.

Brockers is my Burrows, lol.  Total brain fart.  Thanks for the heads up.

I will get into write ups on the Day 3 guys when I get some time.  I was pressed for time when posting this.

I think it was the structure of this sentence that made me think you were saying $70 mill AFTER FA:

Quote:After FA, I'm currently sitting at $79.5 estimated AAV and had $70 in cap space

Now that I reread it again, I see you meant $70 mill before and then $79.5 mill AAV for the new guys added, but will have to play cap structure games to make sure everyone fits within the cap for 2024.
