Default Where is Adam, our cap guru?

He's usually provided his updare(s) by now. I always appreciated his information.

There was really no point in knowing the exact salary cap numbers prior to all of these restructures.

He has been getting shout outs from amongst other things, ESPN writers. I would not be shocked if he got a job that now presents a conflict of interest.

He spent a lot of time and quite a few posts earlier this off-season trying to show that the running game has near-zero value to an NFL team.

You can see many of his posts in this 28 page thread from January.

He's a guy that doesn't guess. With things in flux right now, he wouldn't say anything unless its absolutely certain. Once the dust settles, I'm sure he'll have an update on where things stand.

There is not one reason for him to comment on this... at this point.

Give him a few hours.

He is busy restructuring contracts and trying to get Romo extended.

Failing to get Romo restructured will be one of the biggest failures going into this year.
In the final two months of 2011, Romo’s passer rating was 115.9.

They'll get a deal done, they have to. Placing the exclusive franchise tag on him next year will be an astronomical cost.

Not only that, but the forgone benefits of restructuring him this year and spreading that cap space to other players who could help us this year or absorb cap space this year rather than in future years?

It just doesn't make sense for a team that wants to win now to pay your franchise quarterback 17 million dollars this year. When you could probably parlay that down to 9 or so, and as a result sign 2 legit players (preferably on the oline).

We basically keep running deficits, because we never get value out of our players. Why? Because we don't win, and thus our players are lesser valued.
