    Bills: Below Salary cap floor




    Looks like there are a few teams taking advantage of the fact that there is no salary cap floor in an uncapped year.

    Bills are one of them.

      That is exactly what the NFL wanted to do, the floor was too high.

          After the draft we would probably be over or near the cap floor.

            Cap figures mean nothing right now rosters aren't close to being finished. Draft, trades still to come to bump those numbers up.

                historically the thriftiest of the group are below the floor.

                who can blame them. only the cardinals are close to being any good and they just jettisoned half their team to other teams.

                before we all cry that the bills are cheap, they are in uncertain times. why lock a guy in when you have no core and no idea where the new cba is going?

                      $98 million isn't too bad. that's higher than what i expected.

                        Cards are at $91 million. I do not see any relevance

                          Bill Bidwell is a cheap old bastard, and the Cardinals won't win anything until he's dead.

                            Not exactly that surprising tbh. TO's $6.5 million disappearing makes a large part of the difference, and Butler retiring surprisingly.
                            There's an awfully long way to go with this years FA imho, with quite possibly a flurry of additional activity after the draft, when teams know what needs haven't been met.

                              You don't?

                              the Chiefs ($79 million), the Buccaneers ($79 million), the Jaguars ($81 million), the Bengals ($85 million), the Cardinals ($91 million), the Rams ($92 million), the Bills ($98 million).
                              Rams, Bills, Jaguars, Chiefs, Bucs- 5 of the 7 finished last in their respective divisions.

                              Of that list, only the Cardinals and Bengals did well last year, and the Cardinals benefited from being in an incredibly weak division. And historically, both franchises have been just as inept as the other 5 on the list.

                              It's not a coincidence that this list is made up of traditionally bottom-feeding organizations.
