[quote=mbedner3420;986041]Can you imagine a healthy, motivated Meriweather and Jarius Byrd roaming the backfield? That'd be amazing.[/quote]

As amazing as Deion Sanders and Mark Carrier?

So can someone answer this for me:

Did we stay under the cap by 18mil this year?

I had heard conflicting things to say we didn't.

Only re-hiring Vinny Cerrrato would be going back to our old ways. Allen knows how to spend wisely.

Speaking of Vinny, I was flipping through radio stations in the car a few days ago and discovered Vinny HAS HIS OWN SHOW on CBS Sports Radio. Wow.

Maybe this is not news, but I was shocked.

CBS Sports Radio just replaced my local ESPN Radio affiliate...so now I have a choice between Yahoo Sports Radio or CBS in the car...no more ESPN. Not a fan of the CBS yet...Tiki Barber in the morning, Vinny in the mid-day, then Doug "Do you know I played at OSU" Gottlieb...yikes.

Yeah we were under, you have to be.

Not by $18M though

probably semantics...
Our cap was reduced by 18,000,000 so therefore we stayed under our cap but we were not 18,000,000 under our team cap number. We were 18 million under the general cap number.

A brief blip or two on here during the season. Nothing that I even really paid much attention to, but now I am curious if they were eronious or true.

So to clarify the question: Did we spend 102 mil this year or more?

See that's what I was asking, so if we didn't get the penalty with drawn what ever money we had left over above that 18mil penalty will have to be parlayed to this season. Meaning we would have to be 18mil plus what ever overage we had this year to stay within the limitations put on us by the league.

Looking at the cap spread sheet, we will have to be some where in the neighborhood of 29 mil under the cap this coming up year. We are currently only about 7 mil under the cap and the punishment set out by the league was for us to be 36 mil under the cap between two years, 2012 and 2013. The way it looks now if the penalty stays in place is we will have a cap of around 91mil this year when you take into the account for the penalty that is left over.

we should also keep in mind that if RGIII gets and stays healthy we will have to give him a HUGE contract in a couple of years . . . Afred Morris will be earning a substantial one as well . . . we should be careful with how much we spend over the next couple of years even if we get some of the money back . . . maybe not having it is a blessing in disguise . . .
