- Sometimes low round picks can have a cap number higher than the lowest-paid vet on the team who would get booted. But it's extremely rare. And the difference in $ terms would be minimal. A 3 year vet's minimum salary is about $100 or $200K higher than a rookie's minimum salary.

So when you add it all up, it's a negligible impact. I'd even go so far as to say you're splitting hairs. We may have to clear $500K of cap space in order to accommodate signing the rookie class. But it's definitely not a few million.

Someone saying the top 51 count against the cap and me correcting that is not splitting hairs. I have never accounted for any figures in my responses, so Im not sure why you are adding the its definitely not a few million as that has nothing to do with what I said. I have never said it would be a massive amount of a difference. I have only taken generic statements that werent true and corrected them. If me being technical/analytical makes me a bad person, so be it. Im willing to accept that. Although me being that way, I read your first line "Technically you're right:" and thats all I needed, because to me, thats all that matters.
