Look, we do have some guys here that are very knowledgeable regarding the cap. But it's not that difficult folks. We have a great resource here with CC's cap sheets. They are very easy to figure out.

The answers are right here:

Alright, get the point...do some investigation.

Sorry I'm not trying to be rude, I'm really not.

It's just that a lot of these common cap questions can be easily figured out just by looking at the cap sheets.

I think maybe we need a Cap 101 page where the mechanics of the cap are explained as simply as possible.

Yeah we have floated that idea around here in the past, we certainly have our share of capologists here that could put that together. I'll get cracking on that idea again.

I've reviewed the cap sheet before...a year or so ago. It's Friday afternoon, and i can't begin to think about breaking down cap ramifications of certain moves. I'll leave that for a rainy day.

It really isn't difficult at all. CC has even included the release fees to make it easier. To estimate delayed release fees just look at the cap number and remove salary. That is their reuced number for this year. Then look at thier relase fee for next year and that is their dead space next season. Easy peasy.

I'm gonna do another update this weekend and I'll draw up a Cap 101 thread as well. I'll describe the "cap basics" and maybe we can stick the thread.

I would do it now but I just got back from a 7-hour poker session at the casino.

Ask The Commish.com - Salary Cap FAQ

Here is a pretty good site where I learned as much as I know about the cap. Not the easiest thing in the world to read and rather boring. The Cap has almost become like the tax code. You need a half a dozen lawyers to understand it and another half dozen to figure out how to cheat it.

I disagree. There's nothing to know about economic policy or accounting in there. It's simple common sense.

The problem with breaking down the cap is that the information is always so hard to find. Canuck basically does all the hard work for us. Using the cap sheets, it really becomes basic addition and subtraction.

For the life of me I can not understand where Jansen is all of the sudden labled as a "history" of injuries. the guy is a rock on the right side of the line. He has played with some injuries most guys wouldn't even dress for. Broken thumbs, twisted knees, torn calf, come on, you have to pay closer attention to stuff like this.

It's not as much how many injuries he has had. It is more about how many injuries he has had over the last 4 seasons, he only could play after the first game in 2 of them. In our first year with gibbs back, he tore his achillies on one of the first plays of the game and we proceeded to go a resounding 6-10. Without Thomas or Jansen, we won 4 straight games including a sunday night massacre of the superbowl champioins.
