Salary Cap...

Well it wasnt too long ago that a lot of people on here were throwing around nasty comments about how the Eagles Front Office was greedy and wouldnt spend any money to improve our team, despite being about 47 million under the cap.  It all pretty much started around the Dawkins situation. 

Analysts began to question the Eagles offseason moves...since they were virtually non-existent.  We were letting guys go left and right, but hadnt picked up any new players yet.  No one could figure out what direction we were going in.....

Most of us,however, were level headed enough to know that the Eagle WOULD be making their moves...they just hadnt happened in the first week or 2 of free agency.  We have now addressed and significantly improved out O-Line, added a FB, filled in some depth in our secondary and slowly improved our offseason "Report Card" from a 'D' to at least a 'B' per many analysts. 

Remaining offseason financial moves will likely include signing several of the new drafted rookies, extending McNabb and possibly extending another 1 or 2 guys on the current roster...

With all of that said...theres one side of this that no one has spoken of yet....and i am far from an expert on this topic...

How much of our original 47 million for 2009 is gone?   How much more is available if there are moves that our Front Office sees as worthwhile?

LTBE incentives … he wont hit it, it’s to save cap to carry over for the next year. He “made” 10 mil last year.
