@mattbarrows: Tall order: #49ers interested in #Vikings FA cornerback Chris Cook ... http://t.co/RvDODC1X6F
Ok so with the additions of several players I have a new guestimate Top 51 cap space # of $2,573,039 until June 2nd. June 2nd we know it will increase $6.6M with the Rogers release. Sucks we can't have that space now.
$645,000 Will Tukuafu - third year vet min
$824,933 Jonathan Martin
$855,000 Eric Wright - 7th year vet min, could be more when details are released
$2,011,587 Blaine Gabbert - Word is a restructure will lower this number, details later
$5.25M Antoine Bethea - will know more when details released, just an avg of 4 for $21M at this point
$955,000 Phil Dawson - 10+ year vet min, will know if he got more when details released
$1.431 Demarcus Dobbs - tender amount
So Rogers' cap space basically will cover our Rookie Contracts.
That doesn't really leave us much to any more damage.
A little more on the Bethea deal, still differing numbers on total and no first year cap hit but the gtd money is said to be $6.5 million.
Scout.com: Whitner Out, Bethea In
That article says Whitner got $13M gtd.
Bethea contract details.
4 years $21M, $5M signing bonus
2014 $1.25M base, $400K roster bonus, $100k workout bonus
2015 $3M base, $400k roster, $100k workout bonus
2016 $4M base, $400k roster, $100k workout
2017 $5.25M base, $400k roster, $100k workout
With another $500k possible in incentives from 2015-2017
cap hits:
2014 - $3M
2015 - $4.75M
2016 - $5.75M
2017 - $7M
It is frustrating to see Revis sign on a one-year deal with a competitor. That would have been awfully nice for the Niners. Might have been enough to give them the edge in the NFC West, even without the draft.
