Just saw on espn.com this morning via Clayton. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/67...cap-casualties Cap situations* Team Status Arizona $37.3 million under Atlanta $13.9 million under Baltimore $5.33 million under Buffalo $35.9 million under Carolina $30.6 million under Chicago $37. million under Cincinnati $35.9 million under Cleveland $33.3 million under Dallas $18.9 million over Denver $1 million under Detroit $16.6 million under Green Bay $62,600 under Houston $7.6 million under Indianapolis $2.7 million over Jacksonville $31.4 million under Kansas City $34.3 million under Miami $13.6 million under Minnesota $5.1 million over New England $7.57 million under New Orleans $11.7 million under N.Y. Giants $11.3 million over N.Y. Jets $1.2 million over Oakland $10 million over Philadelphia $13 million under Pittsburgh $10 million over San Diego $19.4 million under San Francisco $18.9 million under Seattle $39 million under St. Louis $35.6 million under Tampa Bay $59.2 million under Tennessee $10.3 million under Washington $10.6 million under *Does not include restricted free-agent tenders. Its going to be a wild two weeks coming, so who knows what is going to happen with cuts, restructures, and such. Also, I believe they have a certain date that they have to be at or under the cap figure, so they will continue to monkey around with it for the next couple of months.

Also interesting is the Colts, they are over and they have not signed Peyton yet. This might get interesting.

Saw this from a CBA excerpt from PFT.com
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...l/#more-141226 "2011 salary cap flexibility: Even though the salary cap was ostensibly scaled back, teams were given two avenues to make it easier to retain high priced veterans this year. Teams can “borrow” $3 million against future salary caps to pay for veterans. They can also use another $3.5 million in what would otherwise be performance-based pay to use for veterans. So the cap really isn’t $120.375 million. It’s basically $126.88 if teams want it to be. An extra $6.5 million won’t save guys that truly deserve to get cut, but it will make life easier for teams near the cap limit."

Just remember this is not congress, when you borrow the $3MM you will have to pay it back, meaning in a latter year you will have to lower your cap by $3MM. So borrowing from the cap for a team like the Ravens who are getting older might make sense, but for a team that appears to be on the rise that would not appear to be the smart move.

......And Peyton is not recovered from the disc problem operation he had May 23rd. Word is he will not be able to practive, or play in pre-season, much less the first game of the real season. Too bad!!

they franchised him before the lockout (23+ million cap number), so that may already be added in, but i am just guessing on that one.

Quote from Alan's comment section: "teams will have to be under the cap on August 4 but the new CBA provides a $3.5 million cap credit this season plus the ability to borrow $3 million from future salary caps this year and $1.5 next year. That's significant because caps are projected to increase with revenue over the next several years, enabling teams to repay the 'cap loan'" Interesting stuff...note - he says "caps" - plural, a mill here a mill there could wash away pretty quickly with the rise each year in this new arrangement.
