Yes, but all the cap space numbers for 2022 we are discussing are based on that number. Just making sure you do not think when we talk about 12.1 million in 2022 cap space, it is not 12.1 million plus 25 million. It is 12.1 million.

But what you said is exactly what got us in the position. Pissing away draft picks for older, expensive players is what got us here. He was trying to keep the window open but left the pantry bare. Maybe someone reached in the open window and stole everything in the pantry 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Procus Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Bottom line is that the 2022 Eagles won't be spending themselves into a playoff run. Where this hurts most is inhibiting the ability of the team to extend young talent already on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EazyEaglez Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 Russell Wilson’s 2022 Cap number is 37 mil. Does anyone truly realize how much restructuring Howie would have to do just to get him under the cap not to mention the draft capital he would have to give up just to get him? People need to start recognizing this team would be making a mistake going down that path. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was $182.5 in 2021 and $208.2 in 2022. +$25.7 I do hope they sign a veteran WR though. I don’t know if I want to see another Howie WR pick.

NOTW Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 2 hours ago, paco said: And 3 first rounders to sign That's one reason I don't think Howie would actually draft three 1st rounders. I think he'll end up taking 2 picks. He will either package to trade up, or use one to trade back into the 2nd round plus some other picks, or collect a future 1st in 2023. Or, he may even trade for a player. Cap wise I hope they play free agency smart. Get a veteran WR on a team-friendly deal, maybe a 2 year deal. They don't need to overpay for a top WR, but someone capable across from Smith. Maybe some depth players but save money for the 1st round picks and extending their own players as needed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of trading back and picking up an extra first or second for 2023 makes perfect sense for a lot of reasons if Howie can pull it off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be quiet in FA I'm with you - the team isn't that good anyway, they should take the medicine for a year and get set for the future. I wish there are no more voidable years and converting veteran salaries to bonuses which makes them harder to cut in a year or two this year. But you just know Howie wont be able to help himself. Slay and Hargrave are prime candidates to have their salary converted to bonuses. Brooks may well get cut but god that dead cap number on him is just ugly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the world people expect us to somehow fit Wilson's 37 million or Watson's 40 million cap hit in is beyond me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to start recognizing this team would be making a mistake going down that path. It's 37 million for Seattle. But if they trade him, they are on the hook for his prorated bonus (26 million). So in theory, if we traded for him it would be (I think, assuming I am reading this right) 24 million for us. 19 million if his roster bonus kicks in while with Seattle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brkmsn Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I understand we are currently discussing the dead cap situation instead of available cap space. So I'm curious ... What exactly is the average dead cap amount for teams by year for the last few years? I'd just like to compare our amount to NFL averages. I would imagine that we exceed the average this year (and probably last year), but I'd like to know by how much because every team has some dead cap.
