Redskins 2012 Salary Cap Status

SBXVII

AAAAAAAAAAA. No they didn't lose their case, they didn't even lose their appeal. The Arbitrator ruled that he was not the proper venue to have heard the case. Basically the NFL got the case dropped based off their arguement that he couldn't hear the case.

The question is will DS take it further. If I were him I would. I'd file through the courts and force the NFL's hand. They don't want to lose their exemption and they don't want to lose this case. I think if filed they will come to some agreement in order to keep it out of court which then the Skins can drop their case.

SBXVII

Actually who knows what the actual ruling is cause I'm seeing two different ways its being presented
1- That Burbank dropped the appeal
2- That Burbank ruled against our appeal.

So WTF?

Dismissed to me is construde to mean he could not hear the case.

then there is Adam Schefter saying the case was dismissed.

So where do we stand now on the cap?

BigHairedAristocrat

The cap is expected to decline next year and, with the penalty, well have less tha 100m in cap space. We're screwed

After accounting the rookie pool ($7.484 million), we'll be about $0.5-1.5 million under. There's a lot of vet min deals that aren't counted for in the analysis in this thread yet, as well as the John Beck release (about $1 million freed up in cap). Plus, we don't know if the Redskins designated anyone a post June 1 cut (I suspect they did not, but unless it gets reported, it's private info).

The Redskins can still free up money under the cap by extending Fred Davis before the season, but the more interesting issue is the 2013 cap info, which I might throw something together tomorrow on for interested parties. Unless they want to acquire a veteran salary in a trade though, this is a non-issue. They can pretty much set their roster as they choose from the existing pieces.

In a week, PFT or some other source will likely do a post June 1 cap update using the NFL's numbers. Then we'll be up to date.

My very best bet for our current cap room is $2.065 million. That's not an official number by any means, but it's not pulled out of my ass either, and should be fairly close to the real number.

That number will be accurate as to after the Redskins sign their rookies.

Count me in as an interested party. 2013 is not looking good.

I'm struggling to understand why this is thought to be the case.

You say goodbye to Hall, Brown, Grossman, maybe Moss and Cooley too.

Well its mos def Moss and D Hall's last year with their contracts. Cooley and Brown kinda depends on their healthy, but Browns is kinda friendly if he somehow plays well this year. Rex only has a one year deal.

with the cap penalty, our salary cap is expected to be around 98MM (as the nfl salary cap is expected to go down next year). We currently have 96MM committed to 2013 according to your figures on the site. Granted, we can get rid of a good portion by cutting:

however, if we get rid of those players, and taking into account our projected needs, we'd still need to sign 2 starting caliber cornerbacks (Hall is the only one currently on our roster), 2 starting caliber safeties, 1-2 starting caliber OTs (i am not optomistic about williams future) and a starting interior lineman, depending on how our players shake out this year. if we dont resign/extend davis between now and 2013 and/or he cant stay away from the weed, you can add starting TE to that list too.

Those are alot of needs to fill with limited cap space. And considering we wont have first round draft picks the next two years, ALL of our starting needs are going to have to be filled through free agency in 2013 and 2014. sure, we could get lucky with a 2nd or 3rd rounder, but you cant count on it.
