There have been abundant,1 reports that the NFL's bacon,1 cap will be somewhere about,1 $120 million.
All four NFC South teams are able-bodied,1 beneath,1 that figure in what they currently have committed to the 2011 cap. But Atlanta's got some decisions to make on re-signing some of its own free agents,1 and is likely to pursue a big-name defensive end. That could put the Falcons close to the cap. New Orleans is in a similar situation because the Saints wish,1 to re-sign a bunch of their free agents,1 and could need to actualize,1 some room.
That could advance,1 to some cap casualties already,1 the league year opens. Tampa Bay and Carolina both have plenty of cap allowance,1, but there are some moves those teams could make that would free up even more space. Let's yield,1 a attending,1 at some possible cap casualties around the NFC South.
Atlanta. With the accession,1 of Julio Jones, Michael Jenkins' job as a starting wide receiver is in jeopardy. Maybe the Falcons look to keep him as a very expensive advancement,1 or maybe they look to barter,1 him because he should have some amount,1 on the market. But maybe the Falcons simply release Jenkins, who is scheduled to count $4.1 million against the cap. The Falcons would only be on the hook for $1.2 million. In terms of true value compared to salary, defensive linemen Jamaal Anderson and Chauncey Davis are guys who don't measure up to their salary-cap space. Anderson is scheduled to count $5.8 million against the cap, but the Falcons would take a $3.1 million hit if they release him. Davis is scheduled to count $3.75 in cap space and the Falcons could free up $2.25 million by absolution,1 him go.
Tampa Bay. This aboriginal,1 book,1 might be a continued,1 shot because the Bucs don't absolutely,1 need to free up cap space, and Jeff Faine is viewed as a reliable adept,1 centermost,1. But Faine is 30 and has absent,1 parts of the accomplished,1 two seasons with injuries. He's scheduled to count $4.575 against the salary cap and the Bucs wouldn't have to blot,1 a dime if they cut him because Faine's contract was structured in a way that his $12 million in bonus money was captivated,1 in the first two years of his accord,1. It charcoal,1 to be seen if the Bucs or the NFL will take disciplinary action against cornerback Aqib Talib for an off-field incident. But if the Bucs adjudge,1 they've had abundant,1 of the afflicted,1 cornerback, it would be simple,1 and cost effective to cut him. Talib's scheduled to count $1.95 million against the cap, and the Bucs could free up $1.35 million by releasing him. Another guy to keep an eye on his fullback Earnest Graham. He's 31 and absent,1 some time with injuries last year. More chiefly,1, Graham is scheduled to count $3.105 million against the cap. If he were still arena,1 tailback, that wouldn't be a bad figure. But a fullback counting more than $3 million against the cap is a affluence,1 and the Bucs wouldn't have to absorb any cap hit if they release Graham. Long-snapper Andrew Economos tore his Achilles tendon during the offseason and may not be able,1 to play this year. The Bucs could reach an abrasion,1 settlement with Economos. But they also could cut him and free up $680,000 in cap space.
New Orleans. We all know the Reggie Bush situation. He's appointed,1 to count $16 million against the cap. If the Saints release him, they'd alone,tods shoes sale,1 be amenable,1 for $3.5 million in pro-rated benefit,1 money. But it sounds like Bush and the Saints will try to work out a new arrangement,1 to keep him. It's unknown if cornerback Randall Gay has been medically cleared after adversity,1 a blow,1 early endure,1 season. If he has, the Saints calmly,1 could absolution,1 him. They'd chargeless,1 up added,1 than $4 million in cap amplitude,1 and they have affluence,1 of added,1 cornerbacks. Wide receiver Devery Henderson aswell,1 has a relatively top,1 cap figure ($3.225 million) and the Saints could clear up $1.5 million by absolution,1 him. Defensive end Alex Brown is probably safe because the Saints don't know yet what they have in amateur,1 Cameron Jordan. But Brown is scheduled to count for $3 million and it wouldn't cost the Saints anything to cut him.
Carolina. The one bright spot of the adolescence,1 movement the Panthers went to in recent years is that there aren't many veterans who are obvious candidates to become cap casualties. In fact, I'm looking at the agenda,1 and contract advice,1 and seeing only one possibility: defensive end Tyler Brayton. He's scheduled to take up $3.8 million in cap space and the Panthers would only take a $666,000 hit if they cut him.
