At $578,125 per game, only that amount, plus $750,000 salary, plus $1.311M workout bonus counts on Cap. Cap number of $2.64 million.

 

Smart cap maneuvering by the Boys.

Nick Hayden, Terrell McClain, now Greg Hardy

Next up on Dallas' list: Sione Fua

Don't forget George Selvie and Everette Brown (and Mackenzy Bernadeau on the offensive side).

I don't get it. The $578,125 per game doesn't count?

[O-Ther]

Could this be a problem:

 

Each team is allowed a maximum of four compensatory picks, and selections will only be awarded to organizations that signed fewer players than they lost to free agency. That does not include players cut, players released after signing the year before or players making the league minimum.

 

 

It's not a reputable source but I read the bolded part and thought about how "technically" they are paying him the vet min. Just a thought.

 

Yes, Hardy is making a minimum salary, but his bonuses are included in that consideration, so no worry there.

 

We just have to avoid signing more free agents than we lose, and pay the ones we do sign less money than our former players get. Oh, and hope our formers play at least 10 games, while playing our new ones 5 games or less and cutting them.

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Let us all imagine the uncontrolled rage this board would feel if the Panthers had given him a second one-year $13mil contract.

Only counts as he earns them I believe. So cap # will increase in season as he earns the per-game bonuses.

Jesus. Forget it. I think I'll just operate under the assumption that we won't get any and go from there. If we do then hey awesome sauce.

They aren't technically paying him the league minimum. They only would be if he doesn't play a single game.

Yeah. Cuz we all know our season is riding on that.

Oh ok. So the intial cap hit is only a little over $2M but grows as he plays. That makes much more sense. Thank you.

Where did I imply that? You need a hooked on phonics marathon
