Don't count on it. Carl said the Chiefs won't be very active in FA this year. They just will decline to execute the renegotiated contracts they prepared "just in case". We'll be right near the new higher salary cap.

Understandable. C-Mac has the link, but I'd be honored to post it.

NFL owners approve six-year CBA extension ESPN.com news services

NFL owners have approved a six-year extension of the collective bargaining agreement by a vote of 30-2 Wednesday night.

Buffalo and Cincinnati were the two teams to vote against the proposal, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.

ESPNEWS reports that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones briefly left the owners' meeting shortly before the 8 p.m. deadline the owners set to decide on the extension and told the waiting throng of reporters that owners were "getting close, getting close," but that it would take about "30 minutes" before anything was known. Jones did not offer any other details.

Earlier Wednesday, the NFL moved back the waiver deadline for teams to get below the salary cap from 9 p.m. ET Wednesday to 11 p.m. ET.

Free agency is set to begin at 12:01 a.m. ET Thursday.

I bet Shields is very happy that this got done. He can retire as a Chief.

Sweet. Bring on the Ty Law threads.

This is assuming that the restructures weren't conditional, though. As in, "hey Tony, we need you to restructure, but only if the CBA doesn't get extended". Some of the contract stuff they did won't be needed now, meaning there could be less cap space than we think.

I heard it reported on teh radio that CP said we were under the 94 million cap due to several players restructuring...assuming that report was true we should have about $10 mill to play with under the new CBA...this also assumes that Gonzo's deal was reworked, I haven't heard if he has a new deal yet.

I personally think CP has been down playing our cap situation...we won't spend like last year, but we can - if we want - make a run at TO or Law..or at least a couple of solid starting vets...should be interesting.

Ding!

Carl Peterson: “So probably even if there is an extension, we’re not going to go out and spend a lot of money on our free agents in 2006.”

Wed, 8 Mar 2006 17:52:33 -0800

Updating previous reports, ESPNews reports the salary cap for the 2006 season will be set at $104 million. The free agency period will start at 12:01 a.m. on Friday, March 10.

Sweet ... Denver should be about $10M under if it's $104M now, maybe more based on what Warren and Dayne do.

$15M under now. Warren saves another $7.6M if his deal voids, even re-signing him will save a few million. Plummer, Smith, Bailey, and Wilson haven't had their deals touched yet.
