Mr. Ross and the salary cap
- Thread starter crashfan
- Start date
We had that cash stacked back for a rainy day.
I doubt Ross knows anything about creativity when it comes to the salary cap but he does sign the checks. Chris Grier would have more to do with that than Ross.
Don’t look a gift horse in the…………
It's a general managers job to keep up with the cap . Knowing when to spend and what to spend it on.
Its all the money that Flores rejected for not tanking hahaha

Yes it is. Even though the GM and cap analyst etc draw the contracts that way, as in they are the brains of the structure. If Ross was a cheap owner or didn’t have the cash flow to front these signing bonuses then the team would not be able to structure them that way. As bad as Ross has been at times, the checkbook is always available and open and that is a definite benefit to Grier and co.
“””I'm no salary cap guru. However, is the reason we are able to sign all these huge contracts due to Ross bellying up to the bar and guaranteeing these players money creatively with signing bonuses, as an example?”””

That’s funny.
A billionaire who doesn't know where his money is going, yea when is your next comedy show. You have no clue...
I never said he didn't know where the money was going. I said he wasn't the one being creative.

As well as the current Dawn Aponte
I don't think she is still with the Dolphins.
Yes, basically. He’s not really paying out significantly more money than other owners, but he’s not a limiting factor on creative solutions. If handing out $100 million tomorrow instead of over 4 years helps us from a cap standpoint, he writes the check.
I think your grossly underestimating the financial skills of a man who used Those skills to amass billions.
It’s not like he inherited it all……..
