Commanders will need about $9.2m to sign their 9 draft picks, and they will need roughly $6.5m in ‘contingency’ to sign replacement players during the season as others are injured. There is also another $2.5m in injury benefit previously reported by OTC that will reduce the team’s available cap space.

This means that the current expectation is that Adam Peters will roll over about $28m in unused cap space to 2025. Of course, this number can be further reduced if the team makes any significant free agent player signings that involve more than veteran minimum contract.

Over the Cap currently projects the Commanders to have about $100m in cap space available in 2025, once again making many fans giddy with the possibilities.

Of course that number is for a roster of only 30 players currently under contract for ‘25. Adam Peters’ heavy reliance on one-year contracts for this year’s free agent signings means that the Commanders will have the opportunity to re-make the roster again next year.

We can’t forget that the team will be adding nine draft picks to the roster in about a month. If all 9 make the team and stick to the roster in 2025, they will reduce that $100m in estimated ‘25 cap space by around $21.67m, dropping the available cap space to around $78m for a roster of 39 players.

Projections of the 2025 cap will, of course, be highly fluid as such projections are every year. The point is not to project the cap space that will be available, which is a fruitless effort at this point in the year, but to say that the roster that Adam Peters is in the midst of assembling for 2024 is really just a bridge to 2025 and beyond. The foundation is being laid right now, but roster construction will truly begin with this year’s draft and continue in a major way for at least one or two more offseasons. The team’s approach to cap management is a major element of the success or failure of the roster-building efforts.

It should be fun to watch.

this doesnt include the revenue increase by the NFL or cuts

Sportrac projects Washington draftees to cost $13.4 million. No. 2 gets just under $7 million and everyone in rounds 2 & 3 make more than $1 million.

One of them will be correct
