Where do you get the 14 large from? We started off at $19 mil after Starks and before Ross.

Figure Ross will lop off $3.5 mil (assuming that Walter's $6.20 or whatever is wrong) and that leaves $15.5.

But that's before the rookie pool is subtracted. Some estimate that at $4 million, so we'd actually have $11.5 mil.

Assuming that the other guys we sign are at the Ross-level, we can afford($11.5 divided by $3.5 =) 3 more players.

But- that doesn't factor in trades of Clement or Shelton (assuming that the trades aren't for players whose cap values result in a wash). And, it's not unlikely that we might cut a couple of marginal players or restructure a contract in order to shoehorn in one more quality FA's.

Then again, there is the "800 lb. gorilla" (aka Anquan Boldin's contract). If we extend him, we'd probably want to scale back any upfront dollars and back-end more of it than normal. Maybe that's what's holding up negotiations.

Hartwell (I don't want him, but i'll play along)
I'd say he will get something around a 5 year deal, 4 mill a year. SB of about 7 mill.

Okeafor - 4 years, 2.5 mill a year. SB 4 mill.

Warner - 2 years, 1.5 mill a year, SB of about 2 mill.

Mili - 2 years, 1 mill a year, SB of about 1 mill.

That is not correct, we started at 19 the day FA started. I assume you are going by the Clayton cap break down which was done before any FA or trades.

With the presumed Ross cap hit of 3.5, starks, the FA camp fodder guys, ect. We have about 14 mill.
