How is the team doing so far with a limited budget?
As the New York Jets are currently buzzing about with a very limited budget due to salary cap restrictions, I think it's appropriate to give periodical updates on how the team is doing spending its money.
| Total Salary Cap | $123,900,000 |
| Current Cap Number | $109,723,383 |
| Rookie Wage Pool Cap Hit | $2,302,020 |
| In-Season Transactions | ~$2,000,000 |
| Unused Cap Space | $9,874,597 |
Here is some information on the 2013 cap hits of the new acquisitions via free agency.
| Antwan Barnes | $1,050,000 |
| David Garrard | $1,100,000 |
| Willie Colon | $1,200,000 |
| Mike Goodson | $1,641,666 |
| Antonio Garay | Numbers Unavailable |
Although Garay's numbers were unavailable, it should be in line with the other players, which is to say a bit more than $1,000,000. Consider this. Thus far, John Idzik has signed five free agents for a total of approximately $6,000,000 or so. Of those players, assuming they're healthy, all five are potential starters. And there's still a lot of free agency left.
