And then the same the year after when you get a full salary cap and are well-under it. If you do that correctly, would think you would take 60-70% of the hit this season, and the rest next season.

You can't do that, the salary floor kicks in next season.

What do you mean? That they have to split it up closer to 50/50 than even I am saying?

No they can split this cap hit up as they like, but starting next year all teams are required to spend no less that 89% (IIRC that's the figure) of available cap space, and it increases into the 90s in subsequent years. In other words you can't be a cheapskate and have a $90m roster.

RG3 doesn't start this year, you end up with the #1 pick and even if you don't get the 1st rounder, the #1 in the 2nd round still has value, then you have the cap space to snap build around RG3 (i assume)

"Suck for Orhian Johnson" just doesn't have the same ring to it though

hmmm. so there was an uncapped year, in which any team that exceeded the cap ended up being punished, followed by an "un-floored" year for which there was no cap increase.

well, at least the owners are slapping the nflpa in the face with it. amazing that they're not maneuvering a little more subtly, but then again it seems likely that they've determined that the nflpa's current leadership is gonna bend over and take it.

The union agreed to the resolution reluctantly, the person said. Union officials believe that neither team did anything wrong or attempted to circumvent the salary cap. But the union acquiesced to the decision because the league would have lowered the salary cap for all 32 teams if it did not.

Don't get it, how could the league have just lowered the cap number?

Julius Pepper’s cap hits by year:
2010: 34.9; 2011: 13.8; 2012: 11.3

How was Haynesworth different?

Latest post in the extremeskins thread about the salary cap penalty:

Quote:

The Redskins must challenge this in court. League officials can talk all they want about “Violating the spirit of the law” since there was NO language in the collective bargaining agreement that was in effect, the Redskins did nothing legally wrong. Second, the NFL approved the contracts in question, what the league office is trying to do is the equivalent of the state changing the speed limit from 65 to 55 and sending everyone tickets for speeding even though the speed limit was 65 at the time. Sue the league; this will NEVER stand up in court!

lmao
