So here's what Buffalo is up against next year. Not hard to see what they're doing. They went all in on winning next year knowing that next year their cap is going to blow the hell up. The below players alone will jack up the cap by ~$75M in new cap next year with the majority of these guys VERY difficult to restructure because of all the dead cap. Seems like most major players' salary is going to WAY more than double next season. The salary cap will likely rise in 2023 which does Buffalo a huge favor. But these hikes are nothing to sneeze at.
Josh Allen - $16M --> $39M ($94M dead cap)
Stephon Diggs - $11M cap hit --> $20M ($45M dead cap)
Von Miller - $5M --> $18M ($40M dead cap)
Matt Milano - $5M --> $13M
Dion Dawkins - $7M --> $15M
Daquon Jones - $3.5M --> $8.5M
Taron Johnson - $4.5M --> $9M
Dawson Knock - $2.6M --> $6.4M
Micah Hyde - $5.6M --> $10.8M
Devin Singletary - Free agent after 2022
Jordan Poyer - Free agent after 2022
Gabriel Davis - Free agent after 2023 (we really think he's going to play for $2M next year?)
Ed Oliver - Free agent after 2023
