Redskins 2011 Salary Cap Status

[CrazyCanuck]

I did a preliminary update to my cap sheets (8/3), should be up in the near future.

Right now I have 20 players with existing contracts prior to the lockout. For the rest I have assumed the minimum salary based on years of service.

I have our deadcap at $8.2M which includes only Haynesworth, Rabach, and Kemoeatu. According to this article, any deadcap for guys cut prior to March 2011 is wiped off the books. That means no deadcap for Portis, Carter, and Dockery. According to my numbers this saved us $20M in deadcap, but the article implies that the Jets were the big winners with $8M in savings, so I could be off.

I have factored in the Rule of 51. I have not allocated a rookie pool besides the min salaries mentioned above.

I have us at $54M in cap room, but considering we've made a bunch of signings since the lockout, the $34M number mentioned here seems to make sense:

I'll add more updates in the coming days.
