Clayton's salary cap update for all teams

[Guest]

$2.48 million

This number goes down $21,750 each week for a full practice squad. There plenty of cap space to add a player like TE Chamberlain, who the Bills are rumored to be interested in. There is also enough cap space to sign Winfield to an extension.

Winfield already counts $1.729 million vs 2003 cap. Any extension will only amortized bonus. TD could easily work out a deal that only increases his cap number by $500,000 or $1 million and still have the cap space for injury protection.

I wonder if Sam Adams' incentive contract is affecting our cap. Other than the first game, he really isn't performing like a probowler.

I wonder if getting TDs is an incentive in Sam's contract.

If he does, it's NLTBE and would count on the 2004 cap

How late can we use this year's cap space to sign people to an extension?

Specifically, can we wait until the end of the season, extend someone, and then have this year count as one of the year's the SB is ammortized over?

The deadline is early November.

If his performance affects our cap then we should have enough capspace to sign 4 ProBowlers by the end of the year.

Since they beat us they have a newfound swagger in their step and are releasing a lot of pentup emotions and anger over having to eat crow for the last year.

What are they bustin' your balls about? That they are so precariously close to the cap? I'd love to go over there and see for myself...but I'm banned from there, ya know?
