Don't expect a RB signing this week.

I don't think thats accurate.

It is according to Sport Trac and Over the Cap. They are usually pretty reliable resources.

Year	Total Liabilities	Salary Cap (Projected)	Cap Room
2018	$176,127,153	$183,499,866	$7,372,713

Sport trac has our rookie draft pool at 6,467,574. And the top 51 leaves us with 2,927,867 in cap space before any additional cuts.

2.9 million in cap space right now. Can add another 2.85 million by cutting Sheppard as a post June 1 cut. Can you stop bitching now?

 

Actually 6.9 million right now.   And I hope everyone understands that after the 3 rd or 4th round the rookies won't count toward the top 51 because their salary cap hit will not be high enough to hit the lowest number in the top 51.

There will be many more RBs later in the process so totally agree.  Wait a while and see who comes available.

Need to wait until at least May 10 as to not have any comp pick implications. 

 

So I would probably expect something between the 10th and when OTAs start, then possibly another later on. 

I believe Voth said it was the 8th.  But either way, I wouldn't be surprised if we haven't already been in contact with some guys we like and trying to set something up to be signed then.

yay comp picks to trade away for more non starters. or we sign a fuging starter with our 1-2 million in cap space with holes that need to be filled. #hurneymagic

I didnt know marty signed most of those garbage contracts?  Like the Matt Kalil deal?  I wish people would get off Gettlemans’s junk and to have been a “talent evaluator” and a “cap guy” realize his drafts sucked and his cap management only got by because he signed guys that were bagging groceries the day before

The Shepard deal and Matt Kalil deals were Gettleman not Hurney. Hurney hasn't signed any garbage deals this time around.
