[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 767348"] Was that meant for me? I'll assume so. It was purely accidental that I saw your post. Why no "reply" so I'd get an alert? Hmm. After the Wilkerson signing shaved $5 mil off modest cap space , any subsequent free agent signing of consequence requires you cut somebody to make space. Nelson out, Graham in, duh, with perhaps 2 additional years of tail risk. We await details. Why don't YOU do the math. I already have and posted it. There's a thread devoted to it. Had the Packers signed Fuller, which would have been a nice move considered in isolation, they would have had to clear cap sometime before the 53 man roster is set and maybe even before signing the draftees. I'll update the details when the recent signing details are available. Will you? The other possibilility is a Rodgers renegoitation with balooning cap hits in the back half of the contract. I gave an example of the consequences of that approach with what was probably low in guarantees as QB prices skyrocket and bought only 5 mil in cap for this season. That might squeek in another player of consequence. One problem is the signing bonus can only be spread over the first 5 years of the contract limiting how much can be backloaded. There's the additional complication of Rodgers shoulder and to what degree his throwing mechanics have been affected. If you don't agree with these assessments, then YOU do the math and prove it is not so. All of this is a repetition of previous posts which you evidently didn't bother to consider. By the way, it's fairly evident the two year plan I advocate is not the Packers approach. [/QUOTE]
