Even if the new CBA get sign and even with all the restructure contracts and LA cut you would still have to drop some players to get under the cap and your best scenario is being 3 or 4 under the cap that won't get you any High Price veteran.

No Abraham trade, No Archuleta, No Vinatieri, No Glover.... no player that's goign to ask for a more than a 1 mill signing bonus, Sorry not this year.

It's time to face the music if not CBA get sign and all looks like everyone is trying to sign 1 because of the second extention but with no real scenario you would be in deap poop, you might have to trade some of your 2006 draft pics for future 2007 because you won't have enough Cap space for your rookie pool.

So again sorry no high price FA this year damn that kind of FA pick up is the thing that got you in this trouble i nthe first place sorry.

Wrong.

With a new CBA the cap goes up for this year AND the 30% rule is gone AND the length of prorating bonuses goes back to a more manageable amount of time. Our cap numbers go down significantly in each of those cases.

The estimated cap would be between 105-108(I even saw a figure of 115 but that seems unrealistic to me). Our estimated cap number drops immediately to under 105 not counting the restructures. The restructures may be contingent upon having no new CBA but we dont yet whether that is the case or not. I would venture a guess that at least some of the restructures are binding in either case.

With all that we're talking about cutting guys who are going to be cut anyways to get room for FAs. Not worrying about keeping starters.
