Lots of cap room

Right now the Eagles have about $23 million in cap space. If we take into account the players that will be gone (Asante/Parker/Jamaal/maybe Justice), the cap room will be over $30 million. Wow.

Remember that it will be lower after we resign the free agents we want to keep (by then maybe around $25 mil), but still, it's impressive considering how much money we spent on last year's free agency coup. We've still got lots of room to play around with.

Just a question...

With the whole cap-rollover thing, does this mean if we hyptothetically had 20 million in cap space every year by year 10 we’ll have 200 million more to spend then everyone else? Or is there some sort of limit?

Heard that

Would really like to make sure we keep Cullen Jenkins in the fold before we do anything with DeSean

I was reading the other day that his contract would be about 7.5M for 2012 + a 5M bonus. Not fatal (getting rid of Samuel alone would cover a lot of it), but I think it was structured as kind of a “1 yr with an out” kind of contract.
