Anyone have an idea of how Mack affects the cap if he leaves? Does that free up the entire $10mil?

I believe so.

It went up like 10mil this year. Granted, can't really plan for that to happen, but in all likelihood it will. It may not go up a lot, but enough to give us some room. There's also restructuring that can take place, etc.

I have to disagree with you on Gordon. If he puts up numbers like last year bolstered by an additional two games he will get 1st tier money either here or elsewhere.

Don't forget the suspension possibility against him. But yes, you're probably right that some team will pay him the big bucks if not us.

Don't forget that every team needs space on their cap to sign their draftees. Not sure how much they must reserve. At least 10-15 mill. no?

$5.4m cap space required, apparently.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Taylor go. At least, he's probably 3rd or 4th on that list.

Haden, you're probably looking something like a 5 year, $50m contract - based roughly on what Talib got, he's that ball park of ability. SO put another $10m on the cap space.

Gordon - I doubt he'd get Johnson/Fitzgerald money, $16m per year. But another season like the one just gone and he's in to that second tier easily - around $12m per year.

Taylor and Cameron would both probably be in the $5m ball park. But neither are really *elite* players.

This says we still have 40 million in cap space, I hope thats true!

Next year, for example (in the link), we're currently sitting at a little over $70m in cap taken up. So about another $70m to spend, minus this and next year's rookies.

I wouldn't worry about cap right now. We can compete with anybody cap-wise.

On the proviso Mack signs on, make it $40m. I think Whitner and Dansby contributer about $9.5m against the cap this year total, so down to about $30m. Add on Trufant's $1.5m, 2 year deal and $28m sounds about close enough.

Gotta get deals done with Haden, Taylor, Cameron and Gordon. And work things out with Mack one way or the other.
