Bears/Dolphins trade is official.

Since it appears that nobody was really in favor of doing the increase of $3 mil in cap space, then we will continue to operate at $157 mil this season. There is one thing that I found curious among the comments and want talk about. I wouldn't let your cap space affect how you operate in RFA. You really want to hold onto your player badly or feel that the draft compensation won't be worth it losing him? Go with the highest tender! It came out to $2.52 mil this season. To fulfill all of your roster obligations, you can pay each player on average $3.41 mil. Knowing that the overwhelming majority (something's wrong if it isn't) of your bench and even some starters, such as K, P, sometimes FB, and perhaps a few others, will be making less than that, many times substantially so, that $2.52 mil can come out as an absolute bargain or at least be palatable to swallow.

It is also probably easier than you think to free up cap space. It might not result in the most ideal outcome, but sometimes you have to decide if you prefer higher-end starting talent with shallower depth or mid-tier talent with some decent depth. Some words of advice if you do not feel that you are good at managing your cap is to to not pay much for the last member of a position that will not see much time barring injuries, such as the #3 QB, #4 CB, or #2 FS. If you have a good memory for injuries and still have your stat PM, you can easily come up to the conclusion of which players on your team just don't see the field. Don't forget that you don't have to get under the cap, if you were to somehow go over, until the preseason is simmed.
