Eagles_Legendz Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 How much will Trotter count against the Redskins cap next year? I know Samuels and Arrington accuont for 27% of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 5 cents. Dunno the #s offhand, too lazy to look, but its not bad at all. I think his base salary is 1 or 2 mill this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 You don't know that Samuels and Arrington count 27 percent of it. What was likely a false media report says that, but, the NFLPA doesn't agree and neither does the team. So, until those two sides change their numbers, Arrington counts about $5.2 million less some sites have stated. As for Trotter, his total cap hit appears to be $2.5 million.

Zen-like Todd Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Ok, according to NFLPA, its 1.5 mill this year. he got a 7 million dollar signing bonus, so figure 2.5 against the cap if there isnt any wacky stuff going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles_Legendz Posted January 10, 2003 Author Share Posted January 10, 2003 Hmm, doesn't seem too bad. With another year in Lewis's system, I expect Trotter to do quite well. Art, I read on KFFL that they would acccount for 27%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Ok, here's another pet peeve of mine. I'm not attacking you, but most people on this board dont pay any attention. KFFL aggregates news from OTHER sources. They dont write their own articles. When someone says "I saw it on kffl", they mean "I saw it on the joe billy bob hick gazette", or, in this case, from The Washington Times. You saw a news snippet from a Washington Times article. If you didnt already know it, the Times has an absolutely horrid track record for accuracy relating to Skins reporting. Im 95% sure they are double counting what is simply a $3 million dollar installment of the original signing bonus. Looking back at Washington Post articles at the time of Arrington's signing, it specifically states that the signing bonus would be payed out in three installments.

Art Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 EL, I have the same peeve that TCO does. KFFL is simply regurgitating what some news organization wrote. What you saw on KFFL is what the Washington Times wrote. The Washington Times wrote it with no quotes. No agent quotes. No player quotes. No team quotes. No league quotes. No player association quotes. No explanation as to why Lavar would be the one player in the whole of football to have a different base salary than the NFLPA knows about. While it may turn out that Lavar gets an acceleration that makes the article true, at this point, it's junk and it's very likely it's an article written with some misunderstood information.

@DCGoldPants Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Ditto....can't go back to the Jansen situation enough. They have very little inside info to the Skins. It's almost like some Harrisburg paper trying to be the big dog for the Steelers. It doesn't work. The Skins give the scoops to the Post....that's a fact.
