WUT?I just truly wish some of you truly understood how the cap works. It’s clear you don’t.
The Titans will be fine and be able to sign who they need to sign. Whether those moves work out or not is the issue. Money will not be.
Please explain...who gets cut? Restructured? FA signings to replace guys we are cutting?I just truly wish some of you truly understood how the cap works. It’s clear you don’t.

WUT?
Please explain...who gets cut? Restructured? FA signings to replace guys we are cutting?
You can't just say we will be fine when the majority of us aren't cap geeks
I must still be misunderstanding.That wasnt the minimum from last season... last season the cap was 198million..
usually, each season, the cap goes up around 10 mil.. so if this were a normal season, our cap would be around 208million for 2021-22.
As of right this moment, the NFL has said it wont drop below 180mil.. As of a week ago they were saying it would not drop below 175mil.
So they have raised the minimum of the upcoming season 5mil. There is a very small chance that it wont be decreased and stick around 198mil, but everyone with any knowledge doesnt think so. They are all predicting it goes down this year.
Having lots of cap room and "winning the off season" doesn't mean success, I agree but the recent hires, specifically DC, little cap unless we cut our most productive players has a few of us nervous, worried, pissed off at JRob whatever....this teams window is not huge and to waste the offensive talent on a sh*t D is not reassuring. Don't kid yourself the Colts will be a problem this year, and who knows what happens in Jax, the right person could help. Is Urban that guy? Don't know.I’m not a cap geek either. I’m just not worried about it. But every year teams seem to find the cap space. But predicting this team is done, can’t win the SB, won’t win the division and should start rebuilding because we don’t have the cap room the Colts have is silly.

Houston is a mess.
JRob has his work cut out for him...after the past season and issues like Wilson, he's under scrutiny by some fans. And rightfully so. He has made good moves as well as bad, we'll see how it all shakes out.
I get what you are saying but think about it like this...I agree with your assessment except for the window. We cant know today what that window is. THill has at least 5 years left. Brown could end up the best WR in the league. It appears to me, and I might be wrong that people are tying our window to Henry. I think that is a mistake. I think this team gets better going forward and the defense isn’t that far off. 1 or 2 players can make a huge difference,
The cap in my estimation is going to be at minimum $200 million. The players union isn’t going to allow a cap to be dropped $20 million. They will borrow the money from the next few years for this season. The Cap going down drastically this season hurts mid range veteran players who make up the bulk in the league.
Hopefully a 5K Thill season and AJ Brown finally breaking that elusive 2K receiving mark.I get what you are saying but think about it like this...
How many more 2k yard seasons do you think we are getting from Henry?
Then, if Henry had ran for 1500 yards this season (which would still be fantastic) what would our record had been? With that record (even taking just 1 additional loss) how does that change our playoff picture? Taking 2 or more extra losses would have left us out of the playoffs... take away 500 yards from Henry and most likely we would have had 2 or more extra losses.
Next season if Henry runs for 1500 instead of 2k, what does that mean for us?
Hope we keep Brown, not f that upI agree with your assessment except for the window. We cant know today what that window is. THill has at least 5 years left.

The cap is going down to around 183-185mil and that isn't the floor that is the top end number that everyone has to be under.
This is a horrible time to be a mid-level free agent....I just hope that JRob can find the right bargain guys. I think we will see a bunch of summer time FA signings this yr. Guys will try to hold out for the best deal they can get and then finally give in and sign.
One agent said the expectation is the cap for 2020 will at least remain steady. Another agent said he expected it to touch $200 million. Another was planning for $195 million.

NFL Salary Cap Might Not Crash After All
Not a fan of the term "deep run in the playoffs" because it's subjective to an extent. BUT just for informational purposes:How many teams won the SB or went deep in the playoffs with a RB that ran for 2000 yards? I can tell you... 1 the Broncos. Henry running for an extra 500 yards was great for him but I don’t think it would have cost us 2 wins. We need to throw more. Henry got a lot of yards this season after the game was decided, when he was just putting the other team to sleep.
Henry running for about 1500 to 1700 yards is about right in his prime. I think he can do that for a few more years if he stays healthy. He doesn’t take a beating like a lot of RBs do. I think he can have a similar career to Dickerson. I think he has 5 top tier type productive seasons left. He keeps himself is crazy good shape.
In this brief statement you just made multiple NON absolutes.That’s what I’ve been saying. It will be alright. The sun will come up tomorrow.
We will sign JJ Watt and draft a Edge in the first round. Keep our FAs and run it back.
We literally just need to fix our situational defense with more pressure on 3rd downs and we are a legit SB contender.
In this brief statement you just made multiple NON absolutes.
1. We sign Watt. Lots of other teams interested.
2. Draft an Edge. I hope so, but JRob has thrown the curve before
3. Keep our FAs. We just discussed cost on another thread and other teams may be interested.
4. Fix our situational D. We just promoted the bonehead that was responsible for the terrible situational D.
