We have $23.4 mil in cap space.
Now, once the season starts, and you count all 53, the Practice Squad, the 1st rounder signed, and whatever cushion/IR costs, it will be practically lower.
Of course, a Tee/Chase deal and/or a Burrow restructure would open up more.
But, say $16 for Jenkins and $7 for Scherff would be $23. We'd be tapped out pending something on the Big 3 front/restructures, or more cuts. Or a creative contract with Jenkins that has his cap significantly below APY salary.
Give jenkins 4 and 60 with a 19 million signing bonus this year with a cap hit of 1 million and then go 12.5 the following 2 years and then make the last year a team option for 15 million.
