JDG Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I have Bennie Anderson in the neighborhood of $1.5mil in cap space, with only about $500,000 in savings if he is released. JDG
clumping platelets Posted March 2, 2006 Author Posted March 2, 2006 Question are you aking into conideration NTBE under this years cap since there is no extension in place all will count this year instead of the beginning of next Season?This would lower our cap space a great deal. 616286[/snapback] I knwo all about NLTBEs/LTBEs..... I disagree with media reports that teams need to keep open NLTBE space NOW......maybe once the final 53 roster is set, you add up all the NLTBEs, but for now, unless a NLTBE can be earned before training camp, Bills only need to plan for the future impact of a players NLTBEs In fact, it's possible a number of players released league wide have sizable NLTBEs that teams do not want to deal with
clumping platelets Posted March 2, 2006 Author Posted March 2, 2006 Take a nap....wake up.....add tendered players....I do not know what the EFA tender is...I've estimated $400,000 RFA tender is $712,000 Subtract about $2 million from available cap space in first post
Orton's Arm Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 12 million bucks of cap space looks good...although I'd rather see it closer to 18 million by releasing Moulds, Posey and Anderson. 616247[/snapback] Agreed. Moulds could probably make $3.5 million on the open market. But if we keep him, we're paying him $7 million in new money next year, and an additional $7+ million in 2007. Paying an aging player double what he's worth on the open market is a John Butler move.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Just saw that Moulds rejected a 2nd attempt by the Bills to restructure his contract. So yeah...I still think he'll be cut.
Nanker Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Anderson and Posey I agree with, but I really like the attempt to keep Moulds on the football team by Levy, and co. 616563[/snapback] Agreed. The serious attempt to keep Moulds is more than a previous GM would probably have done in his mad slash and burn to get under the cap. Moulds very likely is a gonner, but on a number of levels, it's worth it to make an attempt to keep him. JMHO
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 I now have the Bills $10,063,908 under an "unadjusted" salary cap of $94.513 million with $8,622,892 "dead cap" 615953[/snapback] What exactly does this mean? That the Bills would be 18 million+ under the cap if not for dead cap, or does it mean that they're only $2 mill under WITH the dead cap included?
MadBuffaloDisease Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 What exactly does this mean? That the Bills would be 18 million+ under the cap if not for dead cap...? Yes.
