Personally, I don't think we'll have any trouble getting our rooks in under the cap.

We did not get in this salary cap mess from just signing guys this year. It goes back several years. but the whole $7m Coles trade and the signing of Moss to a big contract is a start. Those two players alone cost us about $8m in cap space this year. One is not even going to play for us. Not a very smart move.

Getting our rooks signed will be additon by subtraction, because we wil have to cut 2-3 players.
