What does the Dolphins CAP situation look like

[Phinsfan-Jay]

With all of the signings in the past week where do we stand in terms of cap room?

 

[stoody24]

very good question

im interested to see as well

 

[playmaker1]

I hope we can still land Ashworth

 

[like2god]

i would like to know as well

 

[DolfanDaveInMI]

If we're still bringing in guys who will command fat contracts, good enough. :)

 

[wazzy]

Ashworth first priority I hope we have enough money to get him! I would also like to know the situation!

 

[finfan32]

as of yesterday, we were 5.6 million under the cap, i believe.

 

[NatCyn]

How about over the next few years? Are we going to stay comfortably under the cap or is it going to be a firesale sometime in the near future?

In the past I've always felt we've managed the cap fairly well.

In the past I've always felt we've managed the cap fairly well.

The cap will go up next year, and in addition to that we will have a lot of dead weight off (madison, howard, etc) and the incentives shouldn't hit us so hard as they did this year. I expect us to be in good cap shape for the future.

Umm... interesting but I'm starting to worry a bit about the Olindo Mare situation.

 

[Dolphins12thMan]

now I think Gus saved us 4 mil and change. We need JT and Zach to restructure.

 

[Roman529]

Clumpy should know this. I would love to get Julian Peterson of San Fran but I don't think we have that kind of money left over?? Mare might get axed if he doesn't restructure, not that I want Vanderjacht.
