Other teams get a piece too. This has been one offseason.

Adam Schefter ‏ <s>@</s>AdamSchefter (https://twitter.com/#%21/AdamSchefter)All that money goes to 28 other teams -- $1.6 million each -- except for Saints and Raiders, who don't get any but don't lose any.

<small class="time"> </small>Cowboys lose $10 million in cap space, Redskins lose $36 million in space. Can split it over 2012 and 2013 any way they want. More at ESPN.

NFL is taking away millions of dolllar of salary-cap space from Cowboys and Redskins for how they front-loaded deals during uncapped year.

What a great idea. Penalize teams for skirting the salary cap.

So the Bills are about 22.4 under the salary cap then?

just read the comment above that says they can spread it out over 2 years.

Redskins just gave up major draft clout and now have to give up major FA clout

If I'm RG3 I'm loathing life, and might think of telling Washington to not draft me

The teams can divide the cap losses between 2012 and 2013 in any portion they want. As of Sunday, the Redskins more than $30 million in cap space in 2012 / The Cowboys had less than $5 million.

How can you skirt the cap in an uncapped year?

Teams were told not to front load contracts to take advantage of the uncapped year in attempts to fix salary cap problems in the subsequent years or there would be penalties.

Dallas and Washington did that. I admit I was confused on how Wash ended up with so much cap space this year

I'm starting to warm up to Goodall. Just maybe, a lot of dodgy stuff that has gone on over the years, will get cleared up.
Gotta think that Jones and Snyder are going to be well pissed at this. ;)

They were warned not to go there 6 times, who is there to blame but themselves?

Stevie and Merriman are both tweeting V-Jax, Skins and their ridic money are out... I think we have a legit shot.

Technical question. If Nix told a Bills player that he wanted V-Jax and the player then took it upon himself to start a convo with Jax... tampering? I wouldn't think so.

May as well spend the greenbacks now, what with the printing presses pumping out worthless promises to pay at full speed the past few years. :pimped:
