I don't believe cap space will be a problem next season. They should have enough to re-sign Vollmer,Welker,Edelman,Woodhead and Talib and any others they might want.
From Bleacher Report Site:
According to Spotrac.com, the Patriots 2012 cap hit is at $106,632,966, which takes into account $94,491,221 of active contracts (base salaries and bonuses), $18,801,745 in dead money and $6,660,000 in cap rollover. With this year's salary cap at $120.6 million, this means the Patriots should carry over about $14 million in cap space next year.
NYJetscap.com, which projects future cap hits for all AFC east teams, projects the Patriots coming in at about $100 million against the cap in 2013. Considering the projected 2013 salary cap of $120.9 (per ESPN) and the possible $14 million the Pats can carry over into 2013, the Patriots should sit pretty comfortably at about $35 million under the cap.
The Pats should have the cap space to keep their team among the most talented in the NFL in 2013.
FA's 2013:
Julian Edelman
Aqib Talib
Sebastian Vollmer
Wes Welker
Kyle Arrington
Ron Brace
Patrick Chung
Marquice Cole
Marcus Harrison
Michael Hoomanawanui
Niko Koutouvides
Derrick Martin
Nick McDonald
Mitch Petrus
Trevor Scott
Donald Thomas
Tracy White
Danny Woodhead
