Redskins 2012 Salary Cap Status

[GTripp0012]

The numbers aren't changing all that much from the last update, but the main changes:

-adjusted salary cap estimate down
-raised the total of committed money from $86.3 million to $93.5 million (most of the difference is deadcap from Haynesworth, McNabb et al)
-added the cap numbers for Montgomery and Scott
-put allowances for outstanding or impending contract tenders with Gano, Westbrook, Lichtenstiger, as well as showed the cap room with and without the Fred Davis franchise tender.

The Redskins are working with an estimated $14 million to improve the team if they resign all five of the their top UFAs (Fletcher, Landry, Davis, Carriker, Hightower). If they let all these guys walk, it's $34 million. If they franchise Davis, and let the rest walk, it's $28.5 million.

As always, they can recoup some salary cap space by working restructures and releases, namely with Hall. They sit on about $10 million of available cap room with existing players.
