I believe that is why Elway has been trying to carry over money from this year to next year. With all the injuries is has been tough. The Broncos currently have just under $19 million that they can carry over to next year. Last I heard the expected salary cap is supposed to fall to $175 which would be ~23 million less then this year. If the Broncos can carry over the ~$19 million it would allow them to keep a pretty much static salary cap for next year.Great analysis! I'm glad I'm not in the Bronco front office and have to deal with these issues. The one issue you haven't mentioned with all the decisions that have to be made is the salary cap reduction issue - based on this year's revenue. Teams can get in trouble with the salary cap is they don't watch out, but at the same time - when the Covid is gone - the revenues will spike and the profits will roll in (IMO).
There are huge decisions to be made:
- Do you pick up Von's option? Do you try to work out a new deal? Do you let him hit free agency?
- Can you sign Simmons? If not do you tag him again?
- Do you try to resign Bolles?
- Do you try to sign Sutton to a contract extension?
- What do you do with DeMarcus Walker?
- Do you try to sign Lindsay to a multi-year deal or just go year by year until he hits UFA?
