2025 Salary Cap space and dead money for all 32 teams

Check out the Eagles and 49ers



Under this heading is as good a place to rant.

There is no point looking at one years CAP in isolation, especially when the contracts Jerry prefers are based on high Signing Bonus and Prorated. You need to look at the following years: Year 1 isnt the problem, its Years 2 and 3 that the CAP hits get pushed into.

Yes 2025, in isolation looks extremely healthy.....but look at 2026 ($42m - Ranked 25th in availability) and 2027 ($80m - Ranked 28th in availability).....and that's only accounting for 13 Players (and the rest JAG's).

Jerry, is right in a way, we need some advancement and improvement from what we've got: Especially the recent draft picks, which really have hit (albeit, some of it down to injury). He's also right to be cautious of the: Bland, Smith and Parsons contracts (and that they ALL need to to commence in different years to spread the 1st year benefit).

I'm not saying dont spend anything, but its a lot more nuanced than have money, spend money.
