Philc1 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The 2018 NFL team payroll floor is $157.7 million. How do I know that? Under the current CBA teams are required to spend at least 89% of salary cap(which itself is based off of league revenue). The 2018 cap is $177.2 million Jets are currently at $103 million. Another $5 million to sign draft picks. Literally every FA worth anything is rejecting Macagnan and Todd Bowles. So that leaves $50 million with no actual good players to spend it on. So maybe ASJ does end up getting that $12 million per year he’s looking for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJoTownsell1 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 We will likely go out and get Bridgewater/Ryan Jensen/Dion Lewis/Malcolm Butler and Macc will proclaim victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean to interrupt a good rant, but other than the general tone of this regime sucks - it is a fallacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe ASJ does end up getting that $12 million per year he’s looking for? It’s over a 4year period they have to be at 89%. Without checking the actual salary cap figures of the past 4 years, I’d say it’s about $600 mil total. 89% of that is $534mil. Meaning a team can have 66mil in cap space by the end of year 4 and still be ok. Jets sit at 90mil space. I don’t see the problem. We are 20-25 mil away from reaching the minimum.

Hey who cares, you read in a blog that the Jets may be interested or were interested in one of these FAs so therefore they turned us down. That you dont have a friggen clue if they actually were interested and for the fact that we made no offers, WTF who cares when you're whining and crying? You know, making the names fit the argument, not the facts. And for bonus points, blame the Johnsons. To really drive home the pointless argument. One FA may have picked another team that we know we were really interested in and some are losing their minds trying to find someone to blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
