NFL Cap Projected at $166-169 million
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...6-169-million/
Up at least $11 million from last year. Good padding for us here |

It's huge for cap strapped teams. Especially teams like us who are trying to retain their players and are facing uncomfortable tag situations. A little extra breathing room goes a long way for teams with smart, resourceful GMs to do their jobs. |

If you're waiting for Brady to retire assuming that will make the Pats beatable again, you're going to be waiting a while. |

Thinking any team will be even remotely as formidable after losing Tom Brady is laughable at best. Will be they still be an excellent franchise? Yeah. But not what they've been. |

Of course not. That may never happen again. But they'll still likely be the team to beat in the AFC for as long as Belichick is running the show - Brady or no Brady. |

Tom Brady has had an elite defense every time he won a SB. Belichick has made Cassel, Garrapolo and Brissett look good without Brady on the field.
They still play in a shitty division and would still be a 1 or 2 seed every season. Look at us. Andy outcoaches most teams and has won 11 or more games with Alex. Do you really think Bill wouldn't do better?

Unless we tag Berry, every team will have 11 million more to offer him. That goes for every free agent AND every potential free agent. A big salary cap jump means every team will have more to keep their potential FAs. Which means less talent on the market to go after, reducing the talent pool available. It's all relative Now it does help if you want to tag someone immediately. We won't have to cut someone because of the tag. Means Dorsey won't have to restructure stuff or make as many early cuts. But in the big picture, it doesn't change much. Just means that NFL players will make more money this year en masse. In the end, it's still going to come down to which team wants to spend and how smart they are about spending what they have.

These salary cap increases are driving up inflation for the rest of us.

which is why if you let a guy like Poe walk you are going to get a 3rd round comp pick next year.

It was a huge mistake not to sign Berry if this is the case.

I would love to see the bullshit behind the scenes deals Kraft has set Brady up with in order to save the team cap space. Knowmo's boy Brock Osweiller is making more money than Brady is now, for crying out loud.
