Question about the Uncapped season...

How does this change teams after this uncapped year?

If a team goes out and spends 40 million over what the current cap is set at (and it wont matter because the year is uncapped)

How does that effect a team in 2011 if a new CBA is reached and teams are over the new cap limit?

i WOULD guess that teams would have to cut those players? But even then they would take a cap hit anyways...

I guess this whole uncertainty will make teams conservative when spending this offseason????

Can big spending this offseason KILL teams in the future- its hard to say considering no one knows what the new CBA will say...

Food for thought I guess...

Any answers?

I would imagine a new CBA instituting a new salary cap would include some sort of buffer period to allow team's to get back under the cap. No way the NFLPA would agree to a new CBA that would potentially lead to many, many players being cut due to the new cap. That would also create a situation where many teams could not sign those cut players due to being very near the new cap as well.

Since it looks like a new CBA won't be worked out (I think the owners are set on a lockout) it really won't matter in 2011. And because of this, I think most owners will not be breaking the bank to sign players, just the opposite, saving their money. But if someone like J Jones or Snyder does, I would assume they would have to make some cuts to get under the cap (if one exists) once a new CBA is worked out.

      Has Cade Mays proved to be our starting center, or do we look for another?

      Corbett knows he needs to take a prove it deal and I think he will.  I watched an interview and he was convincingly adamant he wants to stay.  Two different injuries in two years was bad luck.  It's not like it was the same thing.  He knows the game and figures to end his career in a place where he is happy.  You can't really compare how Bryce did with Mays compared to AC.  AC was hurt week 5.  Bryce was on the bench after week 2 and didn't return until week 8. Mays is basically under team control next year as a RFA.  We could offer the right of first refusal for 3m.  I'd offer a 2 year deal which averages a little higher so you can manipulate the cap on his deal.  Additionally, I'd resign Corbett to a team friendly deal.  Many forget he has positional versatility like BC.  Corbett is only one year older, is two inches shorter, about 10 pounds heavier, and has arms that are one inch longer.  Corbett has played LT in college and guard/center in the NFL.  Ideally, bring back all three, but if BC gets big time $$$ AC and CM can battle for center and the other becomes a swing lineman. If we cut bait on Yosh Nijman we may be able to keep all three.  I'd sign up for that in a heartbeat.

      As fans, we often exaggerate how bad our team owner is because we are so invested and focused on our team. We don't really see how bad other team owners, like Woody Johnson or Robert Kraft, because we are focused on the Panthers.
