Woodson signed his one-year, $10.5 million franchise tender, which creates major cap problems for the Raiders. The Raiders are $15.7 million over the $85.5 million salary cap, not counting the Jerry Porter contract and the future acquisition of wide receiver Randy Moss, who has a $7.25 million salary.



Where did they free up 15.7 mil?

Free up? It says they are that far over. Sounds like cut city to me....

[Joe Seahawk]

They certainly didn't expect him to sign it..

Crafty move by the Poston's.

It really messes up the Raiders cap..

To further emphasize: They have since released:
1. John Parella
2. Tyrone Wheatley
3. DeLawrence Grant
4. Ron Stone

They have also since signed:
Moss
Porter
Jordan
Ivan Douglas

WTF?!

So...
