    Rolltide, I'm not questioning the cap-hit. I just suspect that we currently are around or below 25M. With rookies to sign and perhaps a FA or 2, it's gonna be close.

    Rookies won't hardly dent the CAP room we currently have and even if we bring in some FAs after cuts I doubt they would be paid much (we probably won't want high priced guys anyway). We can afford another 6-7 mil if we really wanted to. IMO a guy like Sheppard just takes Pacboy's place.

    Most deals are light on the cap the first year. The SB is pro rated and the first year salary is usually very low. Roos is getting a $4M roster bonus to take advantage of our cap space this year but we should be able to make those signings and easily fit within the cap.

    Rookies will average maybe a million each. Any Fa signings will be of the million dollar variety.

    yeah really. i'd like to see us flex some money and pick up lito. he's young, he's talented, and he could bring some knowledge and leadership to the secondary.

    by the way, what kind of player does everyone see griffin developing into?

    I just don't think he'd go for it is all. Yeah, he had a down year, but he's also young, a two time pro bowler and all pro.

    Also, I think his agent is just stirring things up about trade talks, because both, the Eagles and Jags have reported that no talks have taken place.
