I have submitted another cap page update to Dozer. I do not know when he will be able to make the changes, so here's a capsule:
As of 8/2, I have the Bills $3,2234,124 under an adjusted salary cap of $85,721,000 with $5,482,941 "dead cap"
Missing info: Bonuses for RB Burns, TE Neufeld, and many of the UDFAs. Maybe a Deion charge or two, and since he's not signed, Kevin Everett.
I estimated signing bonuses for CB King and OL Geisinger. They will not likely be off by much.
Points to make:
Nate Clements can be re-signed without creating new cap space. Why? His salary is $2.5 million. His extension could lower the salary to as low as $540,000 (vet min for Nate). That's $1.96 million of cap space to utilize on signing bonus proration, roster bonus, etc
Terrence McGee can be re-signed but his extension will add to his 2005 cap number.
It's possible that both could be extended without creating additional salary cap space. Ho0w? Well, Bills will get some cap space back once players are cut to the final 53 man roster. I do not consider this "creating" because it's required of all teams before the season starts
