Appologize if this was already talked about.
An article on Pro Football Talk claims there are 7 teams that are over the salary cap.
Raiders ($17.3 million), Steelers ($11.5 million), Texans ($8.5 million), Vikings ($5.6 million), Lions ($5 million), Cowboys ($3.7 million), and Panthers ($939,000).
...there still could be some good picks out there.
Good post.
On thursday contracts become official, some decent players will get cut.
WE HAVE A PLAN!
But honestly... what if, and its a big IF... but what IF Baalke & Co. planned on teams overspending in this unsure CBA climate and then having to make panic cuts when contracts become official thursday.
Obviously its speculation and we have already filled some holes with Rogers, Goodwin, potentially Edwards... but it would be nice to see us pounce on some players cut due to getting under the salary cap. IMO it would give niner fans some confidence that we may actually have one of the better FO's in the league now.
Please remember the words IF and "speculation" were the basis of that last sentance, in no way was it a statement of fact so save the negative responses for a different post.
