Decent article by Rich Tandler that sums up why the rookies will need less then $500k of cap space to sign.

How much cap space do the Redskins needs to sign their draft picks? | Rich Tandler's Real Redskins

very strange, the day before Tandler said " they need to make a cut or 2 to make a semi-major signing "

I think the earlier statement was calculating for the # of FA's we need to sign, given the many holes we have. Since the draft picks only have a hit of 500K this yr, their # is basically insignificant to the overall cap picture. Some of the FA signings will be 1 yr deals probably close to 1M. If we want to compete for a "semi-major" signing on top of those, we probably need to free up some space with cuts. I'm probably Jerry Jones when it comes to cap space (I think I understand what I'm doing, but I really don't and I want to make all the decisions) but I think that's what Tandler was trying to say with the two posts.
