New Cap Number


Ed Hochuli 3:16

Recommended Posts

I'm assuming that includes the rookies pool...so that gives us about $10M+ to work with FA's...

 

Maybe we can restructure a few deals to open more space...

 

Granted, it's not exactly right most likely, but Sean Jensen tweeted earlier that the Bears have $16m left to spend.

 

Just throwing that out there.

Isnt the rookie pool less than 5,000,000? I thought before they put a capp on rookie contracts the Bears would put about 5 million away for rookies. now the rookie pool should be less?

Does that number include the cap hit for Forte under the franchise tag? If so, I think we're holding out hope for Wimbley or we'd have been more active on the CB market. Anyone know the status of Wimbley? I thought the Raiders had to make a decision by Friday.

He's due a $17 million roster bonus over the weekend.

With our luck he will restructure and stay put.

 

I think if he leaves, is cut, that the Bears will jump all over him (along with some other teams) and that that might be why we are in a holding pattern in FA at this point, he would be a great addition to the D.
