Agree. 32 MUSD is petty cash, although some new signings can be structured so the 2023 cap hit is spread out over a few years.
Assume they keep 5 million for future in season transactions and emergencies...that leaves about 27 MUSD. Figuring their 2 biggest needs are at OT and CB, that would allow them to sign one or two premium players at most with the rest as second tier players.
Disagree with this. They could play it that way, but it’s much more fluid than that. I wish I could remember which off-season it was but they went into it with around 5 million to spend, went crazy with free agent signings, and still had 10 million available when they were done. There are many factors that come into it, but overall they have the ability to get a lot done this off-season.
