So, forgive me because I made a thread a couple weeks ago asking how we only have 9 million in cap space, well I am embarrassed to admit that I was wrong. Going back to "over the cap" website, the 9 million figure came from the dead money column and by mistake I read that as though it was our cap space.

I went and looked today and going into next season we will have 20 plus million in cap space and that's after our two franchise players are locked up. 

Will next year be the year we can finally be the kids that get the Xbox one/PS4 for Christmas when it comes to Free Agency as opposed to the bundled PS3 with a copy of Madden that is three years old?! Let's hope we can finally be players in FA now with both the money and the piece of mind knowing our two franchise players are locked up for the future.

Gettleman won't overpay (market value of players always to be debated) for anyone, but the odds of a higher-profile signing definitely go way up.  Depending on how the team performs this year (e.g. the WRs really stepping up, CBs regressing, etc), I think we could definitely see a bigger name acquired at a position of need.

Exactly. I don't expect Gman to go full Suh and sign a guy to 100 mill plus but a Torrey Smith type signing is reasonable

Would be lovely if Alshon didn't want to stay in Chicago and Getts wanted to throw a little money at someone. But a more likely candidate would be a Brian Quick or someone similar. Could also be a few decent OTs out there should Oher not work out. 

 

I don't expect to go sign AJ Green...but I do think we see our first "significant" signing.
