[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 884327, member: 7261"] Even at $8M over the cap, I imagine the Packers will find themselves in better shape than a lot of teams. At one time, The Eagles were projected to have a 2021 base salary number around $215 M. It is going to be very interesting to watch what happens as a result of a reduced Salary Cap. I even saw talk of the cap dropping down as low as $140 M, imagine that. I think it is pretty much a given that it will go down a substantial amount and players with expiring contracts like Aaron Jones may not get the offers they had hoped for. I also think we are going to see the largest number of high profile players we have ever seen hit the trade or free agency market as teams scramble to meet the new cap. Teams like Indy who are already in good cap shape will benefit in a buyers market. I'm not going to shed a tear for the "reduced salaries", since in "my perfect world" all these guys would be making a lot less money then they are now. Hell, if the NFLPA would agree to it, I would be in favor of all player salaries just getting reduced by the percentage that the cap gets reduced, but that will never happen. [/QUOTE]
