The Bears stand at 109 mil as of 7:30 am...... by way of comparison the Broncos stand at 130 mil
Where did you come up with that figure? Because, I'm not hearing that on any other Bear boards.
(and many of those are the almost zero practice squad contracts).
What they were saying on the SCORE is that they are 109 mil...as of this morning. ...They wete comparing cap space between the Broncos and the BEARS. They had info from the NFL AND THE BEARS. That is what was reported. I tend to believe the NFL regarding cap spaces.
Not forgetting a dime......the only cap space coming out of the remaining 24 mil is the draft money. 14th s is straight from the Bears and the NFL......GREAT THREAD TITLE
The biggest question was why didnt they wait til june 1 to cut peppers and save that 4.2 million of cap hit.
here, get used to this site:
NFL Player Contracts, Salaries, and Transactions
It's widely regarded as the most accurate public site for cap info. Scroll down to Bears, then 2014 Salary Cap Table. Listening to "the Score" is like reading the Tribune or watching CBS news....you are simply retarding yourself.
My guess, and it is strictly a guess here, but I think it is because we need to spend a bunch of money next year on Marshall, and look at extending AJ.
you are forgetting the $12 million in dead money, which is not good cap management. The Bears are currently about $11.6 million under the cap, and that's with only 51 players under contract (and many of those are the almost zero practice squad contracts). The Bears are most definitely not in good shape. If you remember that you need several million for the draft class and the in-season emergency money, we only have a couple million left.
Poorly titled thread.
You believe everything the score says? why even compare the reigning AFC champs to a team that cant even win their division?
Right now they are at 110 million, they have 3 million dollar roster bonuses for Houston and Jennings, 1.5 for Slausen, and 12 million in dead money. They need to go to the bank of Jay and convert his salary into bonus money when they figure out how much more they need. The biggest question was why didnt they wait til june 1 to cut peppers and save that 4.2 million of cap hit.
