Alright, updated to reflect the following moves, already pointed out uptgread by pally & others:
1. Signing of 11 players to Future's Contracts
2. Apparent release of more coaches on the defensive side: Duffner and Cioffi let go.
I will start the process of cap situations and roster evaluation later this week. Hopefully after we have done DC news which could inform on the defensive system, and player fit.
Regardless, the cap situation and player performances from last year are what they are. Those numbers are not gonna change.

III. Signed to Future's Contracts = 11
These guys do technically take up roster spaces and cap space at the moment. But effectively they do not, as none of them have any Dead Cap hit if released. These are camp bodies, practice squad types with perhaps a dark horse candidate to make the 53 or two.
But it does give one a better idea if how much space we'd have eith a full toster i stead of only 44.
