Salary Cap space - Updated

[Nightman]

Cut Lee, Crawford. and Hurns now !!!!! Don't extend Dak-let him play for 2 million and if need be Franchise him next year or if he sucks just don't sign him.

right on

that is another 19m...... but I still like TCrawford

 

[Fletch]

Probably not, but we can HOPE.

Just wrong.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Witten is safer than jg has been the last 10 years put together

 

[unionjack8]

NFL Salary Cap- 188.2m
Rollover from 2018- 11.7m
Total Cap Space- 199.9m

Current Cap Space- 25.9m ........3/7
includes:
DLaw- 20.5m FT
RGregory- (955k) rebate for suspension
DThompson- 720k
JMLillard- 720k
DRoss- 645k ERFA

Need info for
Witten- 2m plus incentives

I keep reading we would have 50 plus million in cap space

 

[JeffInDC]

Could cost nearly 60 million to keep those 3 around.

Their CAP HIT won’t be $60M.....nowhere near that.

Man Hurns at 5 mil?

I would much rather he goes and put that 5 mil towards Beasley or another slot receiver

If hurns recovers and everything is good, he’s very productive from the slot and more interchangeable in any area of the offense than Cole, at a lower price.

His four years in Jax/ his time here he matched coles 7 years in Dallas in TD numbers and much of that came from the slot.

As a jag...
He had 130 fewer catches than Cole.
For 300 fewer yards.
And 2 fewer TDS.

I hear ya and you’re right. A healthy Hurns is a legit slot receiver and can also play outside. Him and Amari could be good and interchanging between playing outside and the slot together.

However, that’s a healthy Hurns. Will he be physically and mentally ready by week 1? That’s the big question.

Without the injury to worry about I would have a lot of
Confidence with him being #3

Last I knew he had the surgery pretty immediately after the injury and barring any Alex
Smith type complications he is expected to be ready for football by August.

Dak will be getting nearly 30 million a year. Both Zeke and Cooper could get 15 mil a year. You're very optimistic about the Dak deal, I am not.

 

[charron]

These are potential cap savings, not suggestions

I would cut SLee and AHurns yesterday..... that is 12.5m in cap space
I would restructure TSmith and ZMartin as soon as possible .... that is 15m in cap space

Agree with everything except cutting Lee. Unless we actually will use the cap $ it creates. I'd rather trade him or keep him 1 year as injury insurance and make a strong playoff push.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Dak will be getting nearly 30 million a year. Both Zeke and Cooper could get 15 mil a year. You're very optimistic about the Dak deal, I am not.

Cap hit would be around 30 mil for them. then go a bit higher as the years go by.

A healthy hurns here was terrible. A wr coming off a bad leg injury after a terrible season doesn't inspire confidence.

 

[Nightman]

I keep reading we would have 50 plus million in cap space

We did.....we still have 25.9m

DLaw took 20.5
LCollins got a 2.5 incentive raise
Dak, ABrown and MCollins got a 1m each raise

The cap came in officially at 188.2m...... most estimates had it at 190m

This.

Cap hit and avg annual aren't the same thing. Copper is a good example. If we extend him this year and give him 15m avg annual, his cap hit will actually drop and we save cap space this year.

 

[conner01]

Probably not, but we can HOPE.

Bringing Witten back doesn’t concern me as much as how we use him. I’d like about a third of snaps. Mostly red zone where he can actually help. Between the 20’s I like what the young guys showed and hope to see more down the field threat they can bring

 

[ksg811]

$4.25M cap hit for Witten. $2M in base salary and $2.25M in game day bonuses. Incentives will count against next year’s cap if reached.

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Sean Lee costs you just as much as Martin and Smith. Still want him hanging around?

...no Sean Lee does not as much as Martin and Smith

 

[QuincyCarterEra]

Could cost nearly 60 million to keep those 3 around.

If you could actually keep up that's four players not three and two already have high cap hits. Cooper would actually save cap, possibly byron too depending on structure. Of course you didn't know that though.

Depends on if the incentives are consider likely to be earned or not likely to be earned.
