What's the Salary Cap going to be in 2020? The CBA also expires after the 2020, that could also throw a wrench into things.

Either way, I see Aaron Rodgers not restructuring his $32 million cap hit for 2020. Taking around 17% of whatever (adjusted $188,200,000) the cap is gonna be is just a bit absurd.

Teams could be expecting an uncapped year but I think that has been addressed. I know when the CBA expired in 2010 (I think it was) it said right in there that if a new deal wasn't reached by a certain date 2011 was going to be uncapped but they still took steps to keep teams in line.

The problem with Rodgers' numbers is that if you restructure for more room in 2020 it just puts that much more pressure on subsequent years. His salary in 2020 is 1.1 million but he has a guaranteed roster bonus of 19.5 million. They could convert that to a signing bonus and gain about 15 million in cap space but that would add 4 million to his cap hit in each of the next 4 years.

I thought about this a bit more. While we may currently be at 28 million in space with only 31 guys signed we gotta remember we are still predraft. So let's assume it is really 22 million with 41 guys. Still horrible but sounds a tiny bit better.

Beast beheld:

That's what I finally realized Ted Thompson did for years... people say he didn't draft for need, but he did... just it was often next years FAs class... give them one year to work together and learn and then the FA might be let go.

A very interesting theory.

In a sense, that approach was the worst of both worlds.

Buckeye burrowed out:

The short end of it is that the uncapped year in 2010 was the result of the owners' unanimous decision to void the old CBA in favor of constructing a new one. A new agreement could not be reached by 2010, so the year was left uncapped.

An uncapped year would have provided a great place to dump salaries or signing bonuses for teams with deeper pockets, but the owners agreed to maintain the original cap in order to preserve parity.

Good Stuff... makes me wonder about planning for an uncapped year.

Agreed completely. Fully expecting to be irrelevant once Aaron retires. What's 10 mill in cap space while he is gone? Still gets his money.

This all for Aaron. I don't ever wanna hear about how the franchise has let Aaron down again. This is ALL for him

Mike got his way last year, fell flat on his face. This time, Aaron got HIS way. And Mike isn't here to tank his chance.

Put up or shut up, Aaron.

Per Tex Western

Packers have less than $5 million in salary cap space after errors identified, per report

Perhaps this is why they didn’t make more of an effort on Breeland.
