Maybe it is. Maybe it isn't. They still have to be under the cap, which means things will change for them. If I am reading the site right, those cap dollars only add up to 36 players for them, so they will have to fit an additional 17 players into a negative cap, while ours is 40 players, and a positive cap.

A lot a variables, if Ballard is still here, I believe the team will have a good cap situation

How many large salary numbers are there in that figure? Any salary can be guaranteed and thereby amortized over the life of the contract. That said I hope the Titans let Jeffrey Simmons get away and the Colts pair him with Buckner. Absolute pipe dream, but I said at the time that the Colts should've traded up for Simmons and he was my top choice for the Colts in that draft.

Nothing wrong with Grover Stewart

There's not, but if I could field a DL of Nick Bosa, Aaron Donald, DeForest Buckner, and TJ Watt, I would, no matter who I had already.

I guess you can do that in a fantasy league

Jagoffs:cap space($7,719,984) effective cap($16,719,984) cap spending $231,308,487 Dead money $1,411,497

However, it looks much better for us.
Colts: cap space $33,540,596 effective cap space $25,290,596 spending $191,259,437 Dead money $199,967

Guessing our cap space will get eaten up pretty quick by Nelson's and Ngakoue's extensions. Also, JT and MPJ will only have 1 year left on their rookie deals, and I'm sure we'll be looking to extend them as well. We might have to restructure some contracts to push dollars in '24 and '25 to get that done.

I didn't take the time to drill down, but the capability is there.
