I know in Baseball you can see VAST differences between teams in Cap Spending.
What are the overall Team Hard Numbers for the Bengals versus the Vikings in 2017 ?
In the NFL it's more subtle. When we lost Whitworth and BEFORE we signed Smith we had $21 million in cap space.
Currently, the Bengals and Vikings have nearly identical cap numbers after the Burfict extension.

IF you can get young talent, on rookie deals playing well...you are in great shape. How many good young players have we drafted over the past 5 years?
