The Lions have 4.3 million in cap room?

How does Matt Millen still have a job??

Thanks, Adam. As always.

The Q · #4 05-31-2008, 11:28 PM

How did Tennessee blow 30 million in cap room on absolutely no one?

dasher · #5 06-01-2008, 12:12 AM

Here's to Kansas City hoping for a Matt Ryan at no.1 next year.

dcskins · #6 06-01-2008, 12:35 AM

The Redskins are in cap hell again

Urgent · #7 06-01-2008, 01:21 AM

How are some of those teams going to hit their minimums?
If I were the NFLPA, I would get concerned looking at those numbers.

Why are five teams holding onto more than $25mm in cap space each? What do you do with that money now? You could have made the team better.

What a shift from five years ago, when all the teams were right against the cap.

With bogus incentives that push cap room into 2009, when teams will need it to comply with the 30 percent rule (barring a CBA extension before next March).

If I was a Chiefs fan the number of empty seats that will cut revenues is going allow the team to break even given their paltry payroll. They remind me of the Oakland Athletics minus Billy Beane.

It comes as no surprise that notoriously cheap teams like Buffalo, Chicago and Cincinnati are in the top thirteen.

I've gotta wonder what kind of maneuvering Pittsburgh and Detroit will do in order to sign their rookies.

Detroit gets $4 million of cap room added on Monday. (See the second list.)

DutchBird · #11 06-01-2008, 06:51 AM

Ahum,

the $ 4 million was already incorporated in the second table... (or do they get another $ 4 million?). As of May 30 they did not even have $ 1 million cap room. So the $ 4 million everybody is talking about [i]includes[/b] the Monday morning hand-out.

i get your point.....

vikes, were in that place for many years. we made a play at a pro bowl f.a. who knows how it will turn out?.....

vikes may be the proto-type.... save some cap space for years, then go all out on a de....?

who knows?

I will say this, O and D, we have the best left side. (From a right handed qb's point of view)

(on D we have Allan, Williams, and Williams. On O we have Mount, S. Hutch. and Birk.)

Let me check my memory.....

...

That would be 6 of 6 of pro bowl players. I dunno any team that can match up with that.....

Correct -- as of Monday, they'll have $4.39 million of cap room. That's more than enough to sign all of their draft picks (to answer Vols44's question).

McKinnie has never made the Pro Bowl.

When the Titans were reported to have $40 million-plus of cap room, they had only 35 players under contract for 2008. Now they have 87 players either signed or tendered. They gave Albert Haynesworth a tender for $7.25 million and signed Michael Roos to a huge contract (raising his cap number by more than $5.3 million). They've also added pretty big cap numbers for Jake Scott ($4 million), Justin Gage ($3.1 million), Jevon Kearse ($2.6 million), Alge Crumpler ($2 million), David Stewart ($2 million), Chris Carr ($1.8 million), Rob Bironas ($1.4 million) and Bo Scaife ($1.4 million). Add in the dozens of other players signed and a few more whose cap numbers got bumped higher, and that tells you where all of that cap room went.
