Thank you for putting cap savings and dead money for each player. Do you think you could add sortable columns, too?

We have our own 1st-7ths, plus KCs 2nd or 3rd, plus Tennessee's 3rd, and CAR's 7th, so 10 right now, possibly 1 or 2 more in comp picks.
Goldson and RJF signed biggest deals, should get picks for losing them, even though we signed 4 compared to losing 5.

Does anyone have an idea how many draft picks we currently have for 2014?

Also, (and I know its a little early) what is the out look for 2014 compensatory picks in view of our losses vs. our aquisitions?

Just an estimate, not gonna cost that much, that's just what OverTheCap.com has for our picks in the slotting system.

Pretty much spot on Dann. We can make it happen, unsure of Davis' new extension, he may of had help with someone restructuring their deal, or he lowered his base and helped it by converting it to a signing bonus. But we are fine, need a little help when time comes. But we are all good.

When I add up the top 51 I come up with $123,177,922 vs. the $124,154,747 that you have, is there something I'm missing?

Also a point to make/remember is that if we sign the rookies only the top 5 rookies (based on the numbers provided) would fit above the top 51 for a total of $3,947,275 but we would also move 5 players below the line for a total of $2,693,625. So overall signing all 13 drafts picks without any movement (not likely) would only add an additional $1,253,650 to the cap which would still have us $364,921 under.

Estimate from OverTheCap.com, check the link I posted at the bottom, he has all estimates for all teams. Real good stuff.

Are the Rookie Pool cap numbers for '13 your estimation or is that what they're set at?

I read in over the cap that if the niners keep all their pics, the rookie class should cost around $7,500,000 million. I know you discussed this, but i am not clear.

Do they have to fit those $7,500,000 under the cap or do they get additional space because of the picks?

Yes, as part of the CBA, 1st round picks get a 5th-year team option, must be picked up before the start of the new league year, after the players 3rd season. So 2014 league year for Aldon Smith, and 2015 league year for AJ Jenkins. If not picked up they become free agents. Players get a certain % of the top players at their position. Aldon would be Top 10 OLB money, AJ Top 25 WR money. Also teams can start negotiating with players who were drafted under the new CBA after year 3 of their deals. So Aldon could be extended next offseason, so we don't see a big cap number for 2015, as he will have his option picked up.

Are fifth year options allowed in the new collective bargaining agreement?

Re: 2013

JUCJ85 — Mon, 01 Apr 2013 19:15:48 -0000

Basically every player when cut must clear/past waivers, each team has a 24 hour window to claim a player, and take on that players remaining base salary, and non prorated bonuses. If clearing waivers he is free to sign anywhere, either 53 man or a practice squad. And not being ignorant, not everyone knows these type of information. That's why I am here. I enjoy explaining this.

Re: 2013

Rafa — Mon, 01 Apr 2013 18:51:15 -0000

Thank you. BTW, what does "pass waivers" mean? (Sorry to sound ignorant.) ;-)

Re: 2013

JUCJ85 — Mon, 01 Apr 2013 03:46:12 -0000

Mostly they count only as dead money, so basically remaining prorated signing bonus. They become FAs and are free to sign with any team as long as they pass waivers.

What happens to rookies who re drafted, but don't make the 53 man roster? Can they sign with other teams? Is their salary on the cap even if they are not in the team?

Re: 2013

JUCJ85 — Sat, 23 Mar 2013 21:06:57 -0000

That's his base salary, he also has possible $150k in a roster bonus.

Haralson is $1.15 million against the salary cap per Matt Maiocco.

JUCJ85 — Sat, 23 Mar 2013 01:54:41 -0000

Usually P-Squad is $96,900 for each player, so times that by 8, plus maybe $405,000 for each player 52 and 53, so total of $1,585,200.

Re: 2013

Rafa — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 19:31:12 -0000

Approximately how much cap room do the 52, 53 and P-squad take up?

Re: 2013

Jason — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:58:40 -0000

Yeah it would be nice to get something like a 2 year extension with him. It would be interesting if we are forced to use the franchise tag on him, I bet they would try to give him the DT version instead of the DE one since it's cheaper. If they really needed the cap room for someone I am sure they could just do what a lot of the teams in the league are doing, restructure someone's base salary into a signing bonus to lower their cap number. Someone like Ahmad Brooks who is signed for a lot of years. They could also look into doing an extension with Boldin.

JUCJ85 — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:59:48 -0000

I have to fix that. That's new info, the cap is the new adjusted cap, my credits were off by $225k.

Re: 2013

JUCJ85 — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 16:57:07 -0000

About right. Right now $4.6M under, no pending transactions. So right now I am 100% sure it's $4.6M under. But what you said is 100% correct. Once TC is over, and 53 man and P-Squad are complete in September, the whole team counts. I still expect a deal or 2 to free up some cap room. Maybe Justin Smith extends his contract. If so, would be great.

Re: 2013

Jason — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 15:02:16 -0000

Before the Skuta deal I looked at the top 51 salaries and what the cap numbers were last year of the players picked at our spots (31, 34, 61, 74, 93) and it would have came out to using $1.703M in extra cap space. Since then we've signed a few players so that figure would go down since the salaries replaced would be higher than before, but I figure that might be offset a little by a small bump in the rookie cap pool so my guess is it should be in that ball park. With players 52 and 53 and the practice squad to fit under, I figure we've got slightly less than $1M to play with (going off the current $4.6M figure above).

Jason - as of 3/21/13 there appears to be a minor error ($225,415) in your cap computation. 123mm+859,734+2,643,000=126,502,734

I decided to add the incentives for Goodwin, to a roster bonus, since it depends on his playing time. No one else has likely to be earned incentives.
