I guess we're just arguing to which the degree this supposed cap hell is.

I'm saying we're never going to see the Redskins have a firesale like the Titans did last offseason, where their hands are tied and they are forced to part ways with key players.

The Skins have managed to avoid major problems by re-working deals and getting rid of excess baggage along the way (Trotter, Coles, etc.)

I'm well aware the potential is there with this method of cap mgmt., but again, I doubt we'll ever see "cap hell" to the degree that some other teams have faced.

Snyder always has a 3-year revolving cap plan in place, and therefore they are able to avoid many common mistakes other teams make. They take into account the dead cap space available and use it almost as a tool when calculating their cap space.
