Free Agency and how this year will be different



With the salary CAP dropping this season many teams will be struggling to make the new lower number. This will cause many players to hit free agency that normally wouldn't. It will also mean that there will be more players available at some positions causing the money to be paid to be lower.

I am not saying that salaries won't be high, it does mean that WR for example will have many players available with fewer teams in a position to shell out money. What this means is that a smart GM, hopefully Joe D. Will show restraint on day1 and allow the market to settle. IMO we.could pick up several players for less money than normal. Saving 1 to 2 million a year per player for 4 players can be 4 to 8 million in savings.

With the CAP space we have if Joe D is smart he can fix quite a few joles on the team.
