So we are through the first “week” of free agency and after all of the contracts hit, we are showing about 20 million dollars under the cap… but that isn’t really the case… ogunjobi signed a 9 million AAV contract that hasn’t shown up yet on cap sites, moreover 9 million more must be slotted for our draft picks…
add to that filling out the roster with low cost players that might make a little more than the scrubs currently counted in our 51 (basically right now anyone signed for over 840k, the difference comes off of the cap)
And really to make any more significant roster additions we probably need more restructuring of contracts…
So do you all think we should stop making big adds or try to add more big money players
I personally think that they should pretty much stop on larger money free agents… a million or two guy here or there, fine… but no more four and up adds… we have expensive reups coming down the pike and don’t need to be pushing too much money out for a year we aren’t likely to be favorites yet…
