Re: Ravens Cap Update
Just to confirm my numbers of last week, when I said the NFLPA's records were wrong, they have now updated/corrected their numbers and agree with my $4,140,252 under:

On point as always. Thanks, Ravor.

Brian McFarland@RavensSalaryCap8m
If reports of McClain's deal @ $700K are correct, impact on Cap is only $220K once Ruleof51 is applied. Player he replaces was making $480K
Brian McFarland@RavensSalaryCap5m
McClain's deal at $700K would leave Ravens at $3,920,252 under the Salary Cap. Will receive an additional $2.5M in 6/2 for Pollard.

Re: Ravens Cap Update
Yep, but there still is a day of reconing coming.
His cap number is 29 million in 2016, but he gets 62 mil average over the first 3 years. The deal is backloaded high base salary meeting prorated bonus, so there is a delayed re-negotiation coming.
We won't be like Oakland (I've heard 49million dead money for players not on the team currently) but we will have to be careful with others' deals.
Nice to see Oakland's cap disaster benefitting us (Huff and maybe.....)
The cap hell scenario hasn't gone away, just shifted to the future for now, and no present worries for us for 2 1/2 years.... then the discussions will start here about can we afford to keep Joe... I for one am settling down to see if we can defend the hardware :)at one point of my life I was exactly Pi years old

Re: Ravens Cap Update
Cap issues are vastly overrated. Smart teams have ways to get creative with their accounting to create cap space. You look at Oakland now who have a ton of dead money this year, but they will have 69 mil in cap space next year. They were just reckless giving out ridiculous contracts with Al Davis running things, and they are taking the hit now in order to clear their books.
When Flacco's cap hit goes up in 3 years, they'll restructure his deal to give him his money up front in a bonus and spread the hit out over several years to get his cap number lower much like the Pats did with Brady.

Re: Ravens Cap Update
Speaking of the Raiders, my wife's uncle is a fan and is gloating about how Reggie McKenzie has put them in the best position to spend on free agents next year with 49 mil in cap space open next year and look out, because here come the Raiders.
I started to reply, but thought "nah, better not. Let him enjoy this brief moment of false hope...".

Re: Ravens Cap Update
The problem is that you can't build a team through free agency in the NFL. The Redskins are a prime example, and the Dolphins will soon prove this theory true once again. You build your team through the draft and add pieces through FA. That is the way the best teams do it and it shows.
