2:34 begins to explain it.

Teams with a lot of cash flow can do it.

Jerry's is not well liquidated apparently.

 

[nyc-cowboy]

Maybe Jerry should hire away their capologist

 

[slick325]

Being able to re-sign their own (Stafford, Donald and Kupp) plus supplement the team's talent with a big name/big money free agent (Wagner) is very commendable. Les Snead has a had a great offseason...again.

The fact that the Rams are also willing to make trades in-season to bolster their roster is also commendable.

Very interesting, thanks for the video. I still don't fully understand the cap but it makes more sense.

 

[Bullflop]

Here's Stephen saying the cap is "real," while this guy is saying it's not cash money but rather, an accounting loophole, instead.
Perhaps Stephen Jones needs to take lessons from the Rams' financial wizards?! If legit, it sounds pretty astounding . . .

Actually, I can't help but to wonder if it's possible that the NFL hierarchy might ever see fit to render such practices as forbidden.

And we can't afford to keep Cedric....pfffffttttt!!!!! Chuckles is a Failoligist.

McVay is rumored to want to move to the booth soon....he's selling the future for another SB win that will make him elite and then ask for Romo or Aikman type money. JMO

But, but, but, this is gonna catch up to them in 2026....don't you idiots realize this!!!

Why hire someone well qualified, when you can just give the job to your son instead?

 

[Ken]

Kupp is in his last year coming off of one of the most productive seasons ever by a WR.

This will lower his cap charge of 18 mill this year...not worth all of the hand wringing i see in this thread.

Rams found more funny money, what gives Jerry when are you going to bust open the wallet??????? OR are you turning into one of those owner's like the Pittsburg Pirates have???????????? This isn't America's team anymore, it belongs to DOLLAR TREE!

 

[Cwby41]

LOL what can you say. Unreal job of keeping their team together and adding pieces. Before anyone says cap hell just watch how they avoid it with the extra money coming in and some escape clauses in a few contracts. They are gonna be heavy favorites the next few years if healthy. Hats off to them.

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

The Rams are the cap geniuses that Jerry and Stephen like to believe they are.

Worked like a charm for a quarter century. No sense messing with success.

The same way the Cowboys did it when they extended their players in the past. They kick the can down the road.

Lol you complain when they give extensions and you complain when they don't.

They have a cap expert whose job depends on results.

We've got Jerry's son, no matter the results.

When the Cowboys sign their guys, it is the we like our guys complaint.
