Whit is also an unlikely signing so with all that together you will have near 22 left in cap. Ideally you would sign aj Green to a 2 year 16 million. I can give a full breakdown on otc cap calc when I’m on a computer tomorrow but I’m on a cell right now.
Sure, but you didn't account for the rookie contracts in your math which is an oversight. Last year the pool for 1st overall was about $9.4 million so figure roughly $10 million this year for us. Then, as much as everyone hates the "Hobson Math" there are certain things you have to account for one being any additional guys you add to cover guys who go to IR as you still have to pay the IR guys so you need a couple million around for those guys.
Overall, I'd say you probably spent about $20-25 Million too much in your scenario and that is setting aside the issues with spending all of your money on long term contracts in a single season with a large amount of re-signings next year (with a potential Mixon re-sign this off season). One thing to consider though is there is a rumor of a new CBA that could actually be signed before the FA period. If that is the case we could be in a whole new weird world and that could come with it's own pot holes to navigate.
