Note - Spotrac does not have Ivory or Owa Odighizuwa the roster. 

 

Per Buffalo News 

 

The Bills get $10.44 million in savings, meaning they unofficially have $32.2 million available under the cap. That figure includes contracts given to free agent cornerback Vontae Davis and free agent running back Chris Ivory.

Is this factoring in Wood btw?

Buffalo Bills gain considerable cap space with Tyrod Taylor trade

 

 

Releasing Taylor clears $10.44 million from Buffalo’s salary cap figure and saves Buffalo $16 million in real money. What had been roughly $144.5 million in Top-51 salary cap commitments went down to $134.54 by subtracting Taylor and adding the next player. (In the offseason, only top 51 players count against the cap so by removing Taylor’s salary, the next one in line now counts where it didn’t before.)

The Bills will save $4.85 million of Glenn's $14.45 million cap number in 2018, as long as the trade is executed before Glenn is due a $2 million roster bonus March 18. The move also clears Glenn's cap numbers of $12.45 million in 2019 and $12.7 million in 2020 for Buffalo.

Cap Space (Total Cap) $39,717,307
Cap Space (Top 51 only) $39,717,307

Bills are currently at $22.8M in cap room. Once Taylor (saving $10.44M) and Glenn (saving $4.85M), Bills will have about $37.1M in cap space, accounting for the two players counting $480,000 who will replace them against the Top 51.

“Currently”.  

 

I’m looking ahead ;)

there are still the 2 or 3 new players not accounted for.  

$37 seems right when factored in.  

 

Jerry is the next high $ player.  

We’re getting to the mid $40’s mark I had calculated on page 1.

Hughes should be toast IMO

It will only add to the cap but also leave another hole to fill.   

I'm wondering if they take their hits this year, especially if we keep next years #1...Not saying they should, but that frees the world up for them next year (which is already massive).

It all comes down to who the starting QB is would be my guest.  

 

 

Bills have tendered exclusive-rights contracts to all four of their ERFAs, a source said: tight end Nick O'Leary, defensive end Eddie Yarbrough, tight end Logan Thomas and cornerback Lafayette Pitts. They'll all be back in 2018.

 

Bills signed DT Star Lotulelei to a five-year deal

Owamagbe Odighizuwa DE - - - - - - - 0
Logan Thomas TE - - - - - - - 0
Kyle Williams DT - - - - - - - 0

 

 

DT Kyle Williams is returning to Buffalo on a 1-year deal worth $6M, source said. He gets $5M fully guaranteed.

Safety Rafael Bush gets to a two-year deal worth up to $4.5 million.

 

By the end of today, I'd say $18 - $20 Mil (unless more signings are announced) 

Oh can't forget the 4  ERFA's

Back down to $30 ish mil (excluding the other signings since Monday)  

Probably be closer to 20 here shortly when some players roster bonuses come due.

Add Murphy to your list.

I'm rough guessing (can't tell how the longer term contract will be structured) around 16 million Top 51 Cap.

Starting to get tight.

 

1 hour until FA officially opens.

Yes, it is.   

 

That pesky "Rookie" Projected Draft Pool allocation eats up nearly $10 Mil.  

I'm hoping spotrac updates this asap so that we can get a better number  and cut out the guess work in the weeks to come
