I just went searching and found a source saying the same thing. If the Giants didnt do anything yesterday to lower their cap, then they should get hit with a loss of draft picks.

They must have done something. Andrew Brandt wasn't sure what the penalty was, but he kept saying repeatedly that he's never seen anyone be over the cap. I would assume it's pretty severe whatever the penalty is.

There have been teams penalized in the past for being over the cap. The 49ers got hit one year and lost a 5th in what was the current year and a 3rd the next year. But that was around 10 years ago. They were also fined but it wasnt some huge amount.

Giants restructured contracts of Chris Snee and Steve Weatherford to get under cap yesterday.
