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!
The Packers, who had a league-high 12 draft selections, topped the rookie allocation pool with $6.6 million.
The rookie pool is essentially a cap within a cap. It represents the maximum that a team can spend, in terms of salary cap room, to sign its draft choices and undrafted college free agents.
- The large allocations awarded the Jets, San Francisco ($5.646 million) and Buffalo ($5.366 million) were indicative of the fact those were the three franchises with multiple first-round selections.
That'll take care of about half of our remaining $10.5-11.0 Million in Cap space, if the numbers I've seen are accurate.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
And figure another 1-2 million the team will reserve to fill out the practice squad and sign mid-season injury replacements.
Also the team right now is only counting the top 51 towards the cap. Once all players are counted, another million or so will dissappear. (If I am worng, I am sure Clump will say so. )
