All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Sportrac has the Bills with ~27 mill in cap room for 2015
The Buffalo Bills 2015 salary cap table, including team cap space, dead cap figures, and complete breakdowns of player cap hits, salaries, and bonuses.
Orton saved us money with his retirement
Mario has a cap figure of 19.4 mill... that needs to be re-done
In a deal turned into the NFL office Monday, quarterback Tom Brady restructured his contract to give the New England Patriots $24 million more in cash to spend this offseason, according to league sources.
Brady's move freed up cash, not cap space. Under Brady's old deal, the Pats would have been forced to escrow all $24 million of Brady's guarantees immediately. Under the new deal, they don't have to pay them right away, so they have the money on hand to pay for new deals for Revis and such. The only way this affects their cap is if Brady leaves.
Re: Sportrac has the Bills with ~27 mill in cap room for 2015
I think it's important to note that those cap numbers include a $4.3 mil cap hit for Spiller, but that's only if he takes his 6th year player option. If he opts for free agency or the Bills don't re-sign him that comes off the books I believe.
There's also quite a few players that could/should be cut that would add more cap space:
Player/Cap Savings:
Kraig Urbik 2.3 mil
Manny Lawson 1.6 mil
Keith Rivers 1.7 mil
Scott Chandler 2.3 mil
I only included Chandler since he represents significant savings. I don't think he should or will be cut.
Either way, the Bills should have plenty of money to work with. No excuses not to be aggressive and with no first round pick, I would expect them to sign at least a couple significant free agents.

I just read that Brady gets an extra $1 Mill per year for the restructure.
