seoulman said:Actually that's not true. The Commanders have traditionally been extremely creative in their ability to manipulate the cap and sign big name free agents. Snyder definitely gambled the last few years and counted on a new CBA...a gamble he won. The fact of the matter remains that he will be able to continue to structure contracts in the same way he has been since he became owner. We will be probably a few mil under the cap once we trade Ramsey and if we get a few of our vets to restructure (which we will do), we will have enough money to go after some free agents. We don't need 10-11 mil to go after a big name by the way, especially if we can spread the bonus over multiple years the way we have in the past.
Well after all is said and done,, and you guys end up say 11 under,, about 3-4 goes for draft class.. that leaves 7-8.. then a practise squad and you cant spend all of it now,, you mihgt have an injury and need to bring somoene else on board.. so lets say you end up with 6 million to spend in Fa.. that's not a lot to ge ta lot done. From what i have heard.. you guys are talking about signing Randal el.. peterson, carter and venitari.. no way that gets done with 6 million is my point.. realistically, you get one.. then some mid level backups.
