    I'm afraid Beane views things much differently than Roseman. One guy views it as we're all in to win with the team we have now. The other not so much, wants to be good every year and in the hunt. And, that's good enough for him. Guess which one is which?

    Somewhat differently but I don't see him as content with the roster as evidenced by the trades for Cooper, Douglas, or Hines the last three seasons.  Two thirds isn't chump change.  Beane to me is somewhere between the two extremes of ultra aggressive and ultra conservative.  My guess right now is he's seeing if we can add a DE or WR at the deadline.  I don't expect it to be a major name though.

    I've thought about the schedule, but honestly, they just seem so poised, and consistent. The way the AFC is shaking out this year, they may not get KC or the Ravens in the playoffs either. It's pretty crazy. On paper, I don't see a game left on their schedule that they shouldn't be able to win.

    You give us the 7 seed and the Chiefs/Ravens don't make the playoffs.  I'd sign up for that all day.  Very unlikely though.

    Help me understand this chart. Shouldn’t Active Cap Spending + Dead Money + Cap Space = the current cap (+/- $280mm)? 

    It's obviously complicated but they rolled over $63m from last year into this year so their adjusted salary cap of about $341m. 

     

    340m-317= approximately $22m in cap space.

    Hate to see any player injured. Wish him a smooth recovery. But on the field, I really believe this is addition by subtraction. Maybe this gets Beane off his hands to go after Simmons or another vet. 

     

    Really wish Shaq was playing. Potential big loss there even with Milano and Bernard possibly back this week. 

    I think he's fine with Poyer/Hancock out there.  It would SHOCK me if they traded for a safety.
