Colts $31 Million in Cap Space


Recommended Posts

@ESPNStatsInfo: Colts have $31 million in projected salary cap space - most in NFL among 2014 playoff teams (6th-most overall)

This was just posted 2 minutes ago

Where are you getting this info? Last I saw with the release of RJF, Colts have just about 43 mil. I have a hard time believing we only have 31 mil considering we don't have any huge contract players.

How's that? I thought it was up in the 40's as of now. Where you at Sup?

 

I'm right here. That figure isn't accurate as of right now, and it definitely won't be accurate once the cap is released and the Colts rollover is accounted for. Today was the deadline for teams to tell the league how much they plan to rollover. I assume the Colts will rollover the entire ~$7m they can.

Over The Cap projects us to have $43,745,661.00 with there projection of the salary cap being $150,138.267 http://overthecap.com/calculator/indianapolis-colts/

 

OTC uses a $143m cap, Spotrac uses a $142m cap. That, along with a missing player or two on Spotrac, makes up the difference.

 

Edit: Also, Spotrac includes the projected draft pick contracts.

ESPN was wrong, sportrac and OTC (Who I trust the most) have the right amounts, about 43M. The only thing not sure of is the rollover, but I do believe even though we have not notified the league officially, March 10 deadline I believe, the way both sites work, they roll over prior year. Now with Trich and Donald Thomas being cut, which I think are just a matter of when, we will have 49M. Nice!!!!

The deadline to report rollover to the league was reportedly yesterday:

Chap was on with DD or maybe Grady and Joe today and he stated Indy had around 40 - 43 million and could even grow if a couplle more players are let go (Thomas and TR grievance ) adding 4-7 m?.       And he is of the opinion that Indy will make a BIG play for a pass rusher...     Yes Please...   :thmup:

 

This team has plenty of dough...    but Grigs has got to hit this time ..       BIG

 

 

 

   Grady and Big Joe...

    • Link to article   This guy likes what how Ballard has built the Colts. The Colts are far from being mediocre. JMO
    • I almost spit my coffee out reading this a few times, lol!  I love sarcasm and I especially love it when there is some truth to it!  Well played Sir!
    • I guess the whole question is the merits of the report. You report on his diabetes with tons of guesses and speculations and WITHOUT taking the side of the person who's been affected here and who's living and dealing with that condition. You report on the player being uncoachable WITHOUT taking the opinion of his coaches about being coachable or not(and BTW from what I've heard both from Colts and Texas coaches, this is resoundingly NOT TRUE). You report about him being immature and honestly, everything I've seen on the surface suggests the opposite. You report about his combine performance by giving it a pretty harsh reading(the video is in this thread and the account of what happened by McGinn is in this thread... People can actually go and look at what happened and make their own mind about whether the characterization of that workout was fair or not. I will just say you can represent the player stumbling in a drill and going again in various different ways and McGinn chose a specific way to represent it. It was the most negative way you could choose).    You know I had my own reservations about that outburst by Ballard at the presser, but the more I'm learning about Mitchell the more I actually believe in what Ballard was saying and the less merit those reports have in my mind. Maybe I have my own unconscious biases too, now that I have vested interest in Mitchell actually being good for us. I don't know     I guess ultimately none of it matters. AD's success or failure won't depend on some pre-draft reports... it will depend on how he handles himself from now on, how hard he works, his drive to be great and our staff's ability to get the best of him.
