I just watched a video on the NFL site that said he had $19 million guaranteed and he was owed $12 million still which hes been paid now after his release so they dont owe him anything, so theres no damage to their salary cap.

IMHO the salary cap wont be back for a long time(at least 2 years) so it probably doesnt matter anyway in the long run.

It was a silly contract he was given like you say especially coming of the back of a bad playoff game and all his injurys, I remember laughing at the time and thinking it had been typed up wrong or something

I thought there was still a cap hit but obviously not. Either way they still owe him $12 million (whether they have paid him or not).


As for the cap i'm sure it'll be back in 2011. It'll pretty much have to be. The CBA runs out so there needs to be a new one for 2011 or there will be no football and a lockout. Salary cap is going to be the main part of the CBA.

Kampman to the Jags. I'm really pleased that one of my favourite Packers has signed for my second team.

I think it's been a very good free agency so far It the draft that's going to bore me this year,well until the 3rd round when we get a pick.

Welcome to my world

We dont usually have many early picks but this year we have a few stocked up (unless we trade them again)

I think having a second NFL team is understandable. It's not like a british sport where you're born into the club you support. For me I'm a Salford and United fan in Rugby and Football and couldn't imagine supporting anyone else. In the NFL, the majority of UK fans picked there team, there is little or no emotional attachement with them.

Comes off the back of the acquisition of Dunta Robinson from Houston who is a likely starter for 2010.
