Cowboys add nearly 11 million of cap space on Friday

[DandyDon52]

Yes they can.

"NFL teams are allowed to roll over any unused cap space from one season to the next. Clubs must tell the league they plan to roll over cap space by 4 p.m. ET on the day after their regular-season finale.

While the NFL has a salary cap, it also has a salary floor, so teams cannot hold onto money in perpetuity. Teams must spend at least 89% of the cap over a four-year period, while the NFL as a whole must spend at least 95% of the cap."

At minimum 11% of a NFL team's cap is free money. Now, go look up depreciation of assets. Then put 1+2 together. https://www.greenberglawoffice.com/roster-depreciation-allowance/

No you can not depreciate your children. You are not rich and can prove your children are assets.

that law is for any sports team. has nothing to do with cap $

if the cowboys have 5 mil in cap space at end of season , jerry cant just take that and put it in his pocket.
sure he can roll it over to 2024.

I think a vet LB and probably a RB, at some point, will be brought in.

Dumb if we don't bring in a veteran RB to compete with Jones as the primary backup to Pollard.

So much money saved. We going to Sizzler tonight.

 

[diamonddelts]

Use part of it to bring back Zeke. Once they see how poor the RB group is, they will need to.

One yard and a cloud of dust. We should place a phone call to Endor soon for his services.

 

[diamonddelts]

DeAndre Hopkins or Leonard Fournette. I'm not arguing for (or against) either, just saying they would make a splash

Leonard Fournette is cooked. No. Hopkins......maybe.

 

[diamonddelts]

I'm not so sure. Fournette is just one season removed from a strong season sharing time with Ronald Jones (a reunion!) and might be a pretty strong change of pace back complimenting Pollard. We certainly don't have a larger RB like Fournette on the roster unless the undrafted FA makes the team.

But regardless if what he would end up showing, the name alone would make a splash. My guess is the fan base would be divided among those that love the move or hate it. Possibly not much in between

Used to love Sizzler when going to UCLA. My fraternity brother would wax eloquent about
SIZZLER TOAST

"The golden peaks so crispy, the gentle valleys. The soft white under belly. LOL!"

That play went away when Moore was told to pack his bags.
Get the facts correct.

Moore got Dak paid . . . Convinced Jerry that Dak could fake it as a Pocket QB

I don't think Jones is the backup, I think he's just insurance in case Davis is bad.

I got two facts in one sentence. Not a bad haul.

 

[jazzcat22]

Get over yourself.

wow...what is to get over when one is correct....

 

[diamonddelts]

We know you love Zeke. With enough due diligence and sheer luck, we will find someone else who can run one yard and fall forward.

It's going to be alright.

That would be Pollard with his hobbled leg. You will soon tear down your posters and whine about him.

Not until he gets paid. But once a player gets paid, all bets are off and criticism can be warranted.

Well he is getting $10 million this year for a part time player. Unless they really think he can carry the load.
But yeah he has an incentive for a bigger contract. Then he can take his Cabo trip. But at least he will do it after the contract and not before.

That's not fact or true. But believe in what you want. Then explain to yourself why the Cowboys have had a consistently low player salary expense for +10 years. But Jerry tells you to drink the Kool Aid, that the Cowboys make moves to go to win the Super Bowl every year.

 

[CowboyFrog]

Stephen will hem and haw about that cap room being reserved for Diggs and Lamb, only to talk about how greedy they are when they won't sign for a discount.

I've seen this movie before.

I know your probably kidding so no offense but this always makes me laugh, "why are Jerry and Stephen so cheap with the cap money, they dont need it" yeah they cant pocket it thats true and for some reason when i see Jerry and Stephen having a real talk about money the figure of 20 mill seems really low to me on their spectrum..lol "Stepehen we are going to have to delay some of your kids school money to pay Diggs" ..more like "Hey Stephen i just bought the rest of the land from Frisco to Ok, the bank account has a few less Billions but I think we will be ok".

What color is the Kool Aid YOU drink? You know, the one that tells you Jerry is only a total moron that only cares about money, and that we’re guaranteed to fail? Where’s the middle ground?

 

[conner01]

I can only imagine the talent shopping spree on the horizon.

The talent will be guys already on the roster lol
Just extending them
But we always add a couple guys during cut downs and even into the season
Those don’t generally cost much but the big spend will be our guys
