Why is the cap
A simple rule of thumb I use is that the "new" cap hit works out roughly to the signing bonus prorations of the players drafted in the first four rounds.
The cap hits are:
23: $2,087,464
31: $1.755,959*
56: $864,406
Total: $4,707,829
Removing the rookie base salary of $480,000 x 3 = $1,440,000 leaves a "new" cap hit on the order of $3,267,829.

Why do you ask?Where is the cap, after the draftees are signed?

Why do you ask?
(I'm not trying to be a smarta$$). Just curious what your thought process is? How much we'll be able to roll-over, how much we have to maybe extend or give out a pay increases for this year or maybe pay some vets/players that may get cut? Sadly, $9-$10m isn't going to put a dent in all of the above.
