The years we didn't it was all rolled to the years to resign AJ and Andy and the numbers show it was needed as those years we also spent close to the cap.
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
Plus, if they waive guys like Maualuga, Jones, MJ...we could have even more.
