As it stands the cap excess is estimate at around $15 mil give or take 10%.Quote:

They want guys focusing on football right now and not finance.
Well sooner or later we'll have to address both since both are in their contract years. I doubt signing either first will have any affect on the other. We need to extend both of them.Quote:

Yeah, but I think he's mostly incentives. He's not meeting them. When's Cutler's contract up? He's the guy we'll need cap space for.Quote:

The honest answer is, I'm not sure anyone really knows an accurate figure right now. Usually, I tend to find that information out in the media when they report it (how else will we know), and no one has reported anything for next year that I know of. Besides, the whole contract issues for over 50 players is a dynamic matrix that takes some real time to dissect, so I don't know of anyone that can tell you where we stand right now.Quote:
