Interesting

Wonder if they can still afford Champ?

 

[magnus]

They can afford him more easily now. It wasn't that Arrington was a free agent, he just had a high cap number.

 

[Reznor]

Yeah, this was a pretty good deal for both sides, spread the bonus over 8 years to give cap relief to the skins, and LaVar gets quite a bit of "guaranteed" money up front.

But, is this going to keep them in cap Hell? I still wonder if Danny-Boy thinks that all salaries are paid out of his pockets instead of under a cap situation.

BTW, I like the "new" board!

from what i've read, it's fairly cap-friendly considering the huge total amount. I'd be curious to see the cap figures for years 5-8 though.

Don't we have enough money spent on Defensive stars already?

D-line yes, but we need to spend some cash on a couple of CBs quick.
