Campbell re-signed with the Ravens after the Colts were reportedly interested
Still some good players available |

Agree with folks who think we are done until after the draft, with any major signing anyway. If we get a wr or LT (unless Ballard really is sold on Pryor) then we may go for the other in free agency. We need depth (or even a better starter) at cb and on the offensive line. I think we should be able to get an offensive guard in 4th round or later (maybe 3rd if we really like the guy) It will be interesting what our needs are after the draft.

Part of the issue is also free cap space across the league.
Assuming you need a minimum of $10-12m to sign your draft class, sign spots 52 & 53, the parctice squad and in-season churn space, more than half the teams have to free space or have zero space and all but 2 teams have less than $10m to s8gn free agents. There are more free agents than cap space to sign them. |

During the off-season, you only need to count the top 51 players against your salary cap. However, once teams cut down to 53 players, then all 53 need to be counted against the salary cap for the rest of the season. For 2022, the difference is about $1.4-1.6m. Rookie street free agents could make as "little" as $705k while the league minimum for 1st year players is $825k (1st year being that they entered the league in 2021 but did not accrue enough time on a 53 man roster to have it "count" as being in the league one year). Once players accrue 2 years of NFL play and are a 3rd year player, league minimum is around $1-1.1m for the season. Why the NFL thinks the teams need that extra cap space in the off-season, I don't know but teams need to account for it. |
