clumping platelets Posted January 30, 2007 Author Posted January 30, 2007 There will be a number of updates as the offseason develops.....right now, I'm awaiting clarification on numbers for Lindell and Peters.
Pyrite Gal Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Great to see this and hear from you and thanks.
clumping platelets Posted January 30, 2007 Author Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks If anyone is having difficulties with the layout (I rec'd a PM about the chart overlapping with the ads).........it's being addressed
Bill from NYC Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks yet again C.P.!!! A few comments..... 1) Crowell is well compensated. Did he renegotiate since he was originally signed? 2) Talk about timing and inequity. Fowler's figure is 1 million more than both Evans and JP. 3) For those (if there are any) who thinks Kelsay will come cheap, please note that Triplett has a cap figure of 3.785 million. 4) Villarial is gone under virtually any conditions. 5) People are going to be quite shocked imo at the HUGE contracts that will be given to UFAs in a month or so. Nate took a big chance but it worked, and he is going to be quite rich.

Nate took a big chance but it worked, and he is going to be quite rich. 1) Yes he did. Last year. 2) No, it's $1M less than their combined cap hits (2+2=4 > 3). 3) Probably right. 4) He better be! 5) Taking a look at the number of teams with tons of cap room and yes, there will be some big money deals. The Bills will have to strike fast and hard. Will you be including cap savings, Clump? And I read that Shaud Williams had a $3M LTBE incentive this past season that he didn't earn and thus would be put onto this year's cap (a la the Eagles' trick). Did you hear about/include that?
nero47 Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks If anyone is having difficulties with the layout (I rec'd a PM about the chart overlapping with the ads).........it's being addressed if you have excel on your computer right click over the chart and you should be able to export to excel. You can also download an excel viewer for free from microsoft.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 if you have excel on your computer right click over the chart and you should be able to export to excel. You can also download an excel viewer for free from microsoft. There is also an add-on available for FireFox, although I can't remember the name.
Bill from NYC Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 1) Yes he did. Last year. 2) No, it's $1M less than their combined cap hits (2+2=4 > 3). 1. Well then, another good move by Marv. 2> Yeah, my English was off on that. I was trying to say that he has a higher cap figure than either of them.

Yes, I know about the $3 million LTBE added to Shaud's 2006 deal..................once my 2006 page is updated, it will be reflected on there
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 1. Well then, another good move by Marv. 2> Yeah, my English was off on that. I was trying to say that he has a higher cap figure than either of them. The Crowell re-signing was one of Donahoe's last moves, if I recall correctly.
Haven Moses Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 I would rather see a Pats cap page than a Fins. We won't have to worry about the Fins for a while.
OnTheRocks Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 that dead cap number of $2,463,328 looks fairly decent. if i am not mistaken hasn't that number been much higher in recent years?
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 that dead cap number of $2,463,328 looks fairly decent. if i am not mistaken hasn't that number been much higher in recent years? Bledsoe, Moulds, Mike Williams... you bet it has.
Bill from NYC Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Bledsoe, Moulds, Mike Williams... you bet it has. Jerry Ostroski and John Fina cost HUGE cap space to release, but they were so bad that there was really no choice.
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 I notice some potential cuts and hence savings on this page too. Tutan Reyes clearly didn't work out for us. Cutting him seems to save $750K. That's enough to bring in a vet role player. I could also see Mario Haggan being kicked to the doorstep for a savings of around $600K. This site also tells me that now is the time to renegotiate with Evans and JP. They are being under-compensated given their performance, especially if you take a look at Holcomb's and Nall's salaries. Time to tell these guys we believe in them, but also save ourselves the heartache of dealing with it next year. Offer them good-faith extensions. Edit: see we have JP and Evans locked up till 2008 and 2009, respectively. Didn't know this. Still, not a bad idea to float offers to them.
Beerball Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks Clump, you da man! If my understanding of capology is correct, guys in the last year of their contract are most susceptible to the cut list? If that's the case, I can't see these guys hanging around for the coin they are scheduled to make: Sam Aiken Matt Bowen Mario Haggan Kelly Holcomb Ryan Neufeld Tutan Reyes Chris Villarial I know renegotiations are possible as are special team contributions, but that's my cut list based strictly on $.
RuntheDamnBall Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Also noted that the only 'big decision' player we have on our roster whose contract expires in '07 is: Willis. This is interesting. Again, thanks for the awesome work, CP!
Kelly the Dog Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Thanks, Clump, although I am also getting the ads over the ledger, on both firefox and IE.
