After the Greenies were cut, I heard a lot of fans trying to do their own cap calculations in their head... taking the "savings" reported in the media and adding it to a figure seen here or elsewhere. I discussed the misleading differences in the other Green-cutting thread.

I think the biggest gray area I have right now on the cap page is the per game bonuses for Green last year... I need to figure out how those were accounted for in the cap. I think I might get my answer in another week or two when the cap adjustments come out, but if anyone out there has info, let me know.

Thanks for your time, Keith.

Before the cuts, we were $29.5 million under the cap. Every calculation I've seen adds at least $7 million in savings for the combination on Green and Greenwood. That's where I'm lost.
