What does it mean when they put the word "(charge)" next to the figure? Anybody know?

Means that there's no savings to be gained - only an additional cap charge. So, yes - it would cost us more to cut Arrington right now (June is a different story) than it would to keep him.

Not this year. Or ever again, possibly. June 1st is irrelevant.

Its all about the "nucleus" players at this point.

- Portis

- Griffin

- MW

- Taylor

- L.Marshall

- Moss

- Cooley

- Jansen or Thomas or Raybach or Samuels or Dockery (having all 5 back would be a dream) 3 would be nice.

- Rogers

- (Campbell the future nucleus).

Losing any of the others is going to have to be dealt with......but these "12" (assuming 3 of the starting O-line will be kept). Should be the focus.

I think getting the five linemen back would be priority #1. We NEED those guys. You really think only three?

12 million is not Lavar's salary this year. The salary cap figure for an individual player is the basically the players actual salary for the year + a prorated portion of his signing bonus.

Example a player signs a 17 million dollar contract for 5 years with a 10 million dollar signing bonus so the cap figures for each year would be:

year 1 salary 300,000 +2,000,000(1/5 of signing bonus) = 2.3 million dollar cap figure

year 2 salary 500,000 +2,000,000(1/5 of signing bonus) = 2.5 million dollar cap figure year 3 salary 700,000 +2,000,000(1/5 of signing bonus) = 2.7 million dollar cap figure year 4 salary 1,500,000 +2,000,000(1/5 of signing bonus) = 3.5 million dollar cap figure year 5 salary 2,000,000 + 2,000,000(1/5 of signing bonus) = 4 million dollar cap figure
