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!
Tre's post June 1st creates approx 10 million in space, so as long as they are within that reasonably, they should be fine.
I would really like someone to explain why there's a june cutoff for cap savings. Why does it make a difference? Anyone have an explanation? I get pre and post draft, but other than that I don't see why it has to be June
Is it some sort of control on manipulating cap numbers, so if too much manipulation is done, the money doesn't become available until after all the big name FA's will likely have signed? I don't know either- it's just the only reasonable explanation I could come up with.

It makes as much sense as anything I can think of.
It' actually pretty stupid when you think about it. You cut a guy (Tre) in March, but designate him to be cut in June. He's free to sign wherever he wants now, but the money doesn't become "available" to the Bills until June.

Post-June 1st allows the team to carry part of the dead money hit over into the following league year.

OTC has the Bills currently with 10 million in cap space, which appears to include Tre's release, but they have it marked as a pre-June 1st cut.
Sportrac has them at 6.3 million in space, with Tre still on the roster
Daquan's cap hit for this year is 4.5 million
Dawkins is 11.5, which I'm almost certain is 4-5 million less than it was before he signed his extension
Knox's Cap hit is now 7.7, which I also believe is 4-5 million less than it was before he took a pay cut
We really needed the relief on the Knox contract so if your numbers are correct and they do sound right .... it's a very good day in Buffalo.

If they are at 6.3 with Trey still on the roster they're in good shape. With Johnsons new deal they will probably be 20 million under once Tre is released.
