Also, Skins have $2.1 million left under the rookie cap, which, given the low base salaries these guys make, is plenty of space for LaRon Landry. Those talks are ongoing......

The rookie cap is under the main cap. So if they have $7million under the cap and that includes the $2.1 for the rookies. So that would actually make them only $4.9 million under the cap because they have to spend the $2.1 on the rookies. The rookie cap is not separate.
