So with the trickle of yesterdays UFA period. Here is where the bottom 10 of cap space stand. I chose bottom 10 because they will have moved to make to get compliant and sign more players. Some will be easier than others based on their contracts they still have that can be moved around.

22. - Bills 3.8M in space 56 on contract
23. - Cardinals 2.5M in space 59 on contract (does not account for Nukes restructure that was just announced)
24. - Vikings 2.4M in space 59 on contract
25 - Titans -1.6M in space 60 on contract
26. - Chiefs -6.2M in space 60 on contract
27. - Giants -6.4M in space 58 on contract
28. - 49ers -8.9M in space 51 on contact (not a good ratio there)
29. - Saints - 9.8M in space 62 on contract
30. - Bucs -14.7M in space 53 on contract (yes Tawmy is accounted for in this)
31. - Packers -20.9M in space 52 on contract (Adams Tag and Rodgers new contract accounted for)
32. - Rams -22.8M in space 63 on contract

Not sure if you realize it but in all cases only 51 contracts count. So anything over 51 is irrelevant. All teams you listed have those numbers counting 51 players.

The Giants are baffling. To have such a horrendous team and be that negative in the cap.

I do realize that, and those player counts are NOT irrelevant.  they need 90 for camp.  So those players on contract will go down as they clear space if cuts are needed, meaning for the UFA purposes more players will b hitting the market within 24 hours.

 

Figure teams have 7 draft choices and sign roughly 13 UDFAs.  So going into draft you would want roughly 65-70 on contract to get to your 90

Not necessarily. The Browns could pawn him off somewhere else like Seattle, Indy, New Orleans, or Carolina. 

That means Ward and now Mathieu are now gone from that defense. The effects of how they've navigated the Cap will begin to catch up with them. Not to mention how tough that division has gotten over the last week. 

The cap eventually catches up with every good team with an expensive QB.  There will always be cap casualties.  That’s a good thing for the nfl

Now Packers have 24 hours to clear 20M in cap space to be compliant.  This is rally Devante Adams tag number that would have to be cleared.

Ok, to me the way you wrote it is sounded like those contracts are counted. What I meant they are not relevant to the remaining cap. Not a big deal either way :)

I would have cut/traded Beasley to give Chark that deal. May have been been able to even give him a little less to come to a contender over the Lions.

We might be saving the Cole release for a bigger name.

Exactly why I don’t comprehend how some posters dwell on the Bills lack of current cap space. With a qb making over $40 million you are going to have challenges. I’d take those challenges any day over the alternative.

And as of 5 minutes ago with Rodgers new cap hit this is where packers stand roughly

 

Packers -2.7M in space 52 on contract (Adams Tag)  ***UPDATE*** Rodgers new cap hit is 28.5M that saved 18.2M so they are closer to being compliant

Love that CBs are already in the 1 year deal range.  Opens Levi Wallace up for a return guessing his market was soft again....   Maybe GMs realize how CB friendly McDs Defense is and do not want to fall in the Josh Norman trap again.

I would make this call.  I loved Shenault in the Draft.  

 

Depends on the cost (cap & capital) but I would explore it.

1.3M cap hit post trade..  still has another year on rookie deal after.

 

3rd will get it done most likely

Would love to have this guy on the team, I wonder what they'd be asking for, he was a second rounder in 2020. Bills did a lot of WR scouting in the 2020 draft so they'd be familiar with him.

That Leonard Williams trade and subsequent signing was just really short sighted. And the Kenny Golladay thing was really bad. Bradberry has been good, but still kind of overpaid. At the end of the day the biggest mistake they made was passing on Josh.

I think he’d make some sense for teams like GB and Cleveland that need receivers and preferably cheap ones. I don’t think he’s very good though and don’t think he’s a fit here with McKenzie on board; they essentially do the same gadget stuff and not much else.
