People didn't care about the money because we had a ton of it available to spend. Now we don't - we don't even have the money available to sign our rookie class.

Dorsey is going to have to get very creative and probably make some tough decisions.
The point that seems to be flying over everyone's head is, you never ever say "who gives a shit about the $, pay the guy". Which was a very popular sentiment here not long ago.

It matters, even if at that time you are $30MM under the cap. Now look at the crossroads we are at.

As I stated I was never part of the just pay the man crowd and I am not part of it now. The contract needs to be very reasonable.
