This is all assuming the salary cap comes back with a new CBA...

There are already some highly paid players on the team and we are going to go into the off season with a bunch of holes to fill. Dansby, and Marshall both make a lot, Bell and Crowder aren't cheap, Jake Long is a top paid OT, they're going to have to fork out some serious cash to retain Paul Solai(which they better do), Cam Wake is going to need a new contract because I don't care how much the guy just loves football he wont play without a new fat contract you can bank on that.... Elite pass rushers don't play for 1 or 2 mil a year and Wake isn't a spring chicken either so he needs to cash in now. So if I'm right about Wake we are going to have a top paid LT, WR, MLB, and pass rushing OLB. Now at the very least the team IMO is going to need a QB, a couple of interior O-linemen, a RB, and a TE. A lot of people mention Vince Young, well even with all his problems VY will not come cheap, neither will any good interior OL such as Nicks, Mankins etc. Anyway I was just wondering if anyone knew what kind of shape we'd be in cap wise should the new CBA deal get done and the salary cap returns, Would the Phins be able to afford to bring in some good FA's and/or would they have to cut some higher paid players to do it such as Bell and Crowder.

Some of these guys are going to have to dump players to get under the cap unless it goes up alot.

Funny how in the top 5, only 2 team made the playoffs, and one of them didnt even deserve to be in there...

How do you figure they didn't deserve to be in the playoffs? They won their division and the best team from every division deserves to be in the playoffs.
