jimster Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I just saw this in an AP article On Friday, Upshaw told agents to begin negotiating contracts as if a new deal was not imminent.Washington Redskins coach Joe Gibbs said Saturday he remained optimistic the start of free agency could still be delayed a couple of weeks - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fergasun Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 I interpret it this way. The owners are making progress in how the revenue sharing will go. Dan Snyder, Jerry Jones are making some concessions of local revenue. In return, Snyder, Jones, Bowlen, etc. will gain a Salary Cap increase.

Whiskeypeet Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 The 06 cap will be between 92-95 million if its extended or not. The 07 cap will be 110 million. Link please. Also: Heckert said the Eagles probably won't be pursuing big-name free agents during the offseason, mainly because there isn't expected to be much high-end quality in the areas the Eagles need help. Expect them to wait until the first wave of high-priced free agents are gone and then go bargain hunting for functional players who won't be looking for massive deals. http://www.phillyburbs.com/pb-dyn/news/99-02052006-608533.html Can you imagine what the Dan would do with a $110M cap?

TaylorPickSix Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Any truth to westbrook's comments? I thought if we got a new CBA it directly affects the cap for THIS year, not only next. EDIT: Thank you wilbur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
