I was just taking a look at the salary cap status for each team...
http://espn.go.com/nfl/columns/clayton_john/1510617.html
..., and it's as of Friday. Here are the teams that even qualify w/ enough cap space to sign Price:
Team Cap status
Atlanta Falcons $10 million under
Baltimore Ravens $9.2 million under
Chicago Bears $10.5 million under
Cincinnati Bengals $8.6 million under
Dallas Cowboys $14.8 million under
Detroit Lions $7.1 million under
Houston Texans $18.2 million under
Jacksonville Jaguars $7 million under
Kansas City Chiefs $7.5 million over
Minnesota Vikings $26.2 million under
New Orleans Saints $15.4 million under
New York Jets $5.4 million under
Oakland Raiders $6 million under
Philadelphia Eagles $15.2 million under
Seattle Seahawks $12 million under
Obviously some changes have occurred since then, most notably to the N.O. and K.C.
But of those teams, those that "need a Price" are: Atlanta and Philly. Who knows if Philly is seriously considering Price or not.
Thus the risk here. If Atlanta balks, this may reach another level risk wise.
