Not 100% on this but fairly sure he means their cap hit is $2.7 when u factor in the rule of 51. Assuming the average salary for for players 45 to 51 is $425,00 that would be deducted from each of the draft pick salaries when calculating the cap...

Mo Claiborne........$2,957,182 -$425,000 = $2,532,182 cap hit
Tyrone Crawford... $533,813 - $425,000 = $108,813 cap hit
Kyle Wilber........... $499,805 - $425,000 = $74,805 cap hit
Matt Johnson....... $465,146 - $425,000 = $40,146 cap hit
Danny Coale........ $437,513 - $425,000 = $12,513 cap hit
James Hanna....... $416,213 = no change to cap
Caleb McSurdy..... $404,850 = no chage to cap

Not exact numbers since I obviously am not using actual salaries for players 45 to 51, but look at that its pretty close to the figure Adam gave,
