Re: NFL taking away Redskins cap space

Hate to break the bad news to Fletcher, but he isn't getting that 8-9mil/year contract now. Also probably can say goodbye to D-hall and his figure.



Now, those cheap draft picks are coming back to bite us in the ass.

If we can I'm sure we will appeal.

Re: NFL taking away Redskins cap space

This will screw the Cowboys worse than us if it stands. They were already right on the salary cap, we had a ton of room to spare, but maybe not now.

Hopefully we can still get a WR and spread some of the damage to next season.


Are we and Dallas really the only offenders? Tough to believe, if we really violated anything.

Word is that the Saints and Raiders are also violators but their punishment is that they wont get any of the cap space from us and the Cowboys.

Re: NFL taking away Redskins cap space

I understand the NFL thinking and still think smart thing to do, but is there any appeal process?

Probably not unless the Cowboys cut a bunch of folks. They're in worse shape than we are.

well yeah thats what I meant in an ironic way, but that is good news cowpricks not being to get shit tomorrow.

You know ole Jerah and Danny Boy right now are on the phone together pissed off, yapping it up like two school gurls. They probably thought they were real slick couple years ago when they were taking advantage of the system.

Re: NFL taking away Redskins cap space

So how are they going to improve the team the next couple of years? ....with no cap space or high draft picks?? They better be dead on with the mid rounders. Sorry but this is piss poor management. How did they not know this was going to happen??

I think this is piss poor management by the NFL. They could have at least warned the teams in advance. A lot of people were praising the Cowboys and Redskins for using the uncapped year. Although, as bad as this looks, the Cowboys are in worst shape...they have to make cuts to absorb even half of this money.
