GB doesn't have that capability..I would agree w/ you that GB doesn't do a good job w/ the cap.  Many examples have been sited in the past; however, one that always slides under the radar was the signing of Chad Clifton for 10M.  Flannigan played LT very well while Clifton was out w/ his injury which told me someone else could have too.  I know LTs are supposed to command big contracts, but I can't see it in Clifton's case. The move prevented GB from doing anything for the Def last year and has prevented them from any moves this year as well. Likewise, GB's drafting under Sherman has been nothing short of atrocious; a hugh factor in controlling the cap.  This is nothing new.  Having said all that, I would agree that GB should do everything it can to improve the team while Farve is playing. Mortgage the future as far as possible.  Considering all Farve has given this organization, he deserves nothing less!</p></blockquote><p></p>
