[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 144207, member: 227"] [i][url=http://www.flex.com/~deeph2o/CapPage.htm]THIS CAP WEBSITE[/url] lists the Packers as having 14 million cap space left(AFTER we get our rookies signed)[/i] That's odd, I worked out the cap space left over right after the Barnett deal, and got a figure of almost 10 million in cap space left (minus the rookie signings that are yet to come). I certainly don't mind 14 million, but I'm wondering why is there such a difference between my calculated amount and the one listed at the link LT provided. I went step by step, and I don't think I did anything wrong... Packers had 21.7 million in cap space at the beginning of the off-season. [url=http://www.askthecommish.com/salarycap/numbers.asp](According to this website)[/url] - Frank Walker cost us 1.24 million (according to the JSOnline article about his signing). - Jenkins got a 4 year 16 million dollar deal, which works out to 4 million on average per year. The CAP website that is linked at the very top lists the cap charge at 3.76 million. - Barnett's deal pays out 12 million in the first year, and I had calculated it as a 6 million dollar cap charge. The JSonline lists the cap charge at just over 7 million in the first year, and if you factor in Barnett was due about 1.5 million this year, and got 7.225 million cap charge, the net increase in the cap charge is about 5.725 million. SO: 1.24 million (Walker) + 3.76 million (Jenkins) + 5.725 million (Barnett) = 10.7 million dollars cap charge for the 3 players. 21.7 - 10.725 = 10.975 (Approx.) IN CAP SPACE LEFTOVER WITHOUT ANY ROOKIE POOL ALLOCATION. Even if you add 3 million as an estimated amount for the cap like the website did (I had a different estimate, about 4.3 million is more realistic IMO), the Packers have only 7.975 left over in cap space. Basically I get a difference of about 6 million when I compare my value against the websites... [b]so which is accurate[/b]? Am I missing something, or adding a contract I shouldn't be? [/QUOTE]
