[QUOTE="sschind, post: 824703, member: 10247"] You are right. It is going to cost the Packers the same in cap space over the two years no matter what. Teams need to decide if they need more cap space now or later this year or next year. I get the feeling from your posts that you are a bit concerned about all the backloading of contracts. I'm not trying to be funny I am serious and I agree. The cap does keep going up so if we don't need any new players over the next 4 years the cap increase may cover it but I'm pretty sure we will have to sign new guys and their salaries are going to be higher. The 10 million a year average guy this year will be 12 next year and 14 the year after that. New signees may eat up a big chunk of the cap increase unless the back loaded deals get it first in which you new signees will be minimum wage type guys just to fill the roster. One thing that is forgotten in all this, or maybe its the reason for it, is that the current CBA expires after 2020. I suppose we could expect a simple extension of the current deal with no, or maybe a few minor changes but its possible one side or the other decides they are getting the shaft (like last time) and some big changes throw everything out of whack. I honestly don't see the latter happening as I think both sides should be fairly satisfied now. Revenues are up, team values are up, players are getting more money than ever before and all seems right with the world. All it might take is one incident to change it all though (A huge lawsuit over safety concerns for example) I know when the last CBA ended there was an uncapped year and everyone was afraid rich teams would give players tons of money in that year and less in others but they were smart enough to add provisions to prevent that (I think the cowboys still got caught though) Could it happen again. 2021 an uncapped year so Jerry Jones and Daniel Snyder could offer top free agents deals with a 50-75 million dollar salary in 2021? I doubt it but it will be interesting to see what happens. Even with provisions in place it could be that our concerns for 2021 will end up being for naught. 2020 though could be a very big concern.
