thank you
does anyone now what kind of cap shape we will be in if we cut seau,bowens,thompson,feidler,and trade surtain?
rickysux said:what is dead cap? does this mean trading surtain will cost us to much?
Mindwarp said:what if bowens retiers?
phinfan2003 said:Would we get any good cap relief if we release Mare and Knight too? I'm hoping we have money to spend this offseason!
Clumpy said:Mare's cap number in 05 is $2,117,499. His remaining bonus amortization is $3,135,997. Thus, if released before June 1st , 2005, it would result in an additional cap charge of $3,135,997 - $2,117,499 = $1,018,498. If released after June 1st, His cap savings would be $1.05 million (his salary for 05).
I believe Miami will bring in real competition and make a determination during training camp.
PHINATIC13 said:Hey Clumpy do you think it's possible or wise for us to sign a top 5 pick(QB) in the 05' draft with our cap issues. I see your the man to talk numbers with. If you got time thanks.BTW Buffalo still sucks! Yes I do relize I just lowered my chances of getting an answer.:D
Clumpy said:Miami cap issues are not as bad as in recent yrs IMO.
From a purely cap perspective, YES...Miami can sign a high draft choice that is a QB. From a talent perspective, Miami may want to go in a different direction. IMHO: Miami should trade down and add a few extra picks and begin the rebuilding process.
