Cap news

[Racehorse]

Team owners want to make as much money as they can, but they don't want to break up their teams for a temporary situation. I would guess the cap will be closer to $190M, because many teams are over that number now.

The players want a lower cap, makes the teams renegotiate and spend money on players that arent rookies

If the cap is lower, teams will be forced to renegotiate or cut players who can now renegotiate their deals to get under the cap

But then other teams have no money to sign them

Its all funny money. You shift money forward, call it bonuses, bullshit highway robbery bonus, but the players ring money out of the owners and gain years on the contracts that are not guaranteed but they have more security, cutting them gets expensive

Plus, while I can only guess, the NFLPA loves fucking the owners when they can. Ive been on the players end as an employee and making the bosses squirm when they get over their head feels good

Jaff, you must be drinking some damn good liquor. A lower cap hurts players, it doesn't help them.
