2005 Cap Increase

SBK · 12-16-2004, 07:30 AM

Looks like 2005 cap is headed to be about 85.5 million.

CROP REPORT SHOWS $5 MILLION INCREASE

On Wednesday afternoon, Clarence Beeks told the various Randolph and Mortimer Dukes that the NFL crop report will increase by roughly $5 million, from $80.5 million per team to $85.5 million.

The increase was first reported by the Dallas Morning News.

A league source told us that the teams also were told at the labor meetings in Dallas not to expect the cap to increase by much in 2006. We recently reported that some teams expect the cap to break $100 million in 2006, when the new TV deals kick in. But as Vito Stellino of the Florida Times-Union explained to us (correctly, it appears), there won't be a significant jump from '05 to '06.

Im not too excited about the jump, since KC will just sit on the money anyway.
