You must account for some automatic spending items like rookie contracts, practice squad salary, injury fund, etc. when looking at a raw cap number.
I did an updated roster cutting Rankin, Hubbard, Stone, Moss and Cappa on Spotrac and after those cuts, we only had 74.5 million in cap space. The good news for us is we have not leveraged a lot of future cap space with creative cap application.
If they were to begin using some creative cap management, they could make the 2025 cap dollars go a lot further. But the FO has been reluctant to leverage much of the future.

2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.
