    We still have cap money to spend?

    A current summary of Buffalo Bills 2024 player cap & cash figures.


    This has all the signings except Chandler, Spikes, and Dixon.

    It has us still having 18 mill in cap room.

    I'll update this thread over the next few days as the rest of the info comes in.

    I find that hard to believe. If it is true I'd still go after Strief.

      They really need to bring in a veteran QB. I haven't looked at the list lately. I remember pickings are as slim as always. But, they need some experience even if it's a back-up.

          After factoring in Spikes, Chandler, Dixon and rookies.. leaves about $4 or 5 M only.

              That would be a great add and I bet he could be had for $16.5M for 3 years.

                You have to reserve some cap $ for camp and season injuries.

                  Just convert some base salary into bonus. Mario has plenty.

                    I'd be surprised if we signed more than 1 more guy...if any until the draft. We got far more additions than I imagined and this draft is deep. I heard it's like 4 Mil + left but I do hope I'm wrong and it's more.

                      Might extend some of our own now. At least that is what I would do if I was gm

                        Mario's base salary is only $1.9M... He has another $10.6M roster bonus, $.5M workout bonus and I think another $3M in likely to b earned bonuses. I imagine the roster bonus can be amortized throughout the remainder of his contract to give us another $7.7M cap room in 2014.

                          BTW... Look for a restructure for Mario next season...

The deal contains $50 million guaranteed, including a $19 million signing bonus and all of Williams' 2012 and 2013 base salaries. Another $4 million is available through incentives. Williams is eligible for an annual $500,000 workout bonus in years two through six. 2014: $1.9 million (+ $10.6 million roster bonus), 2015: $12.1 million (+ $1 million roster bonus), 2016: $11.5 million (+ $2.5 million roster bonus), 2017: $11.4 million (+ $3.5 million roster bonus), 2018: Free Agent

                            Pears can still be cut also.
