Only the top 51 players salaries count against the salry cap.

OK so you're netting the Pucillo and Frost contracts against the bums that are getting bumped out of the top 51 by their signings?

Thank you that was helpful. First question, why would you step off of Clayton's $4.2 million when you can just step off of the $6.0 million reported at Skinsfan.com?

The Warpath's figures (CrazyCanuck) vary from the SkinsFan information for the following players:

Chris Samuels - $8.6 here, $6.2 there. Here, the $8.6 includes signing bonus from both Samuels' original contract and the one from his recent restructure/extension.

Clinton Portis - $7.0 here, $6.2 there.

Jon Jansen - The figure here does not factor his recent extension.

The Portis and Samuels contracts should be reviewed to determine the correct figures. LaCanfora gets his salary cap information from Skinsfan.com, and he's quoting the $6.0 million in space that they are reporting.

If CC's figures are right for Samuels and Portis, then the Skinsfan.com figures should be revised from $6.0 million of space down to $2.4 million in space.

As you may notice that schedule doesn't have Vincent on it, but it does have Brunell from before and still has Fauria. That schedule is what Clayton was reporting plus the changes from Thrash and Vincent moves.

I thought the rule of 51 was how old I'd be when this was finally figured out. I say we go in the middle like around 8,786,561.31.

Sorry, been busy these days.

I just did a cap sheets update (Mar.1). Should be on the site soon. I have us at $4.891M in cap room. This includes everything (Betts, Jansen, Brunell, Vincent, Fauria, etc.).

Here's the breakdown:

Total Cap Hits - $106,672
Less: Rule of 51 - $(3,495)
Deadcap - $932
===========================
Grand Total - $104,109

2007 Salary Cap - $109,000

Current Cap Room - $4,891

How will possible anticipated cuts (Wynn, Daniels, Hall, Patten) affect the numbers Nuck

Re: Current cap room?
 

I hate how every time free agency starts at 12:01 on March 2nd every year ESPN and NFL.com get overloaded and their sites won't load. It's happened to me for three straight years lol. I can't even get Redskins.com to work lol.

Player...............Cap Hit...Rel Fee..Savings
Renaldo Wynn.....$4,028...$1,528...$2,500
Phillip Daniels......$3,100...$1,200...$1,900
John Hall............$1,965...$465.....$1,500

Total.................$9,093...$3,193...$5,900


I calculate we can save $1.25M by cutting Patten, but it would be after June 1.

The funny thing is deals aren't going to be announced all through the night so I don't understand why people are hitting those sites.

Re: Current cap room?
 

Although I trust CC the most, it seems we have two different numbers. CC says 4.9 about 5 and JLC says 6. And this other guy is saying 9 or something? How could everyone be coming up with different results?

There isn't an official number so sources will vary.

Differences between CC and the $6.0 that JLC is reporting include differences of opinion on the cap figures of Chris Samuels and Clinton Portis. CC has Samuels and Portis taking up more 2007 space than the figures JLC is drawing from.

Based on my understandings of the cap, I think CC is right on those two contracts. As usual!

I'd figure on $4.9 being the right number. Though that has changed now that Randy Thomas, Mike Sellers, and Vernon Fox all have deals.

Actually I think my Brunell number is off by $1M, so that would bring the cap room to $5.9M on my sheets.
