Texans | Not as Much Cap Space as Appears - posted at KFFL (http://nfl.kffl.com)
13:06 PT: Carter Toole for HoustonTexans.com reports Houston Texans GM Charlie Casserly notes that reports the club is $15 million under the cap are somewhat misleading, as the club doesn't really have that much money at its disposal. Houston has to pay QB David Carr a $5 million acceleration of his signing bonus and has to pay OT Tony Boselli $4 million if he plays this season, something the club is "optimistic" will happen, Casserly said. The team's first-round and second-round picks are expected to count $3 million against the cap. None of these items appear in current cap calculations, he said.
