The only thing I can figure is he's subtracting out rollover space that we carried forward from not spending at the cap as that isn't recurring.
We have about $44.5 cap space.
- $6.5 million that we rolled over. (In reality this can be used for signing bonuses, etc. and the cap should keep rising each year.)
-------------------------------------------
$38 million
-9.2 million - Our rookie pool is around $9.2 million. (https://overthecap.com/draft/)
--------------------------------------------
$28.8 million
All I can figure is that he is saving money for a Burfict extension or something like that. He allocated for that with Dalton and Green.
