    I looked at overthecap. Are we $29-$32M under the max?

    They are for now. That's the Top 51 number, so some adjustments will come this summer as they add rookie contracts. Their rookie pool this year is $9.1M, but after some of those signees replace others on the 51, the estimated cost is $3.2M.

    As for extensions to Watt (or whomever) they'll likely covert some of his $21M base into signing bonus to save on cap space if needed.

    Rodgers will be a direct hit unless they add void years to his contract. So if he plays for the purported $10M, they could structure it as vet minimum in salary and ~$9M in signing bonus with two void years, and his cap hit in 2025 would be $4M.

  7. Sign rookies
    Sign Rodgers (qb)
    Sign cooper (wr)
    I would be almost tempted to bring in JK dobbins or maybe even chubb or at least akers.
    Sign justin Simmons (s)
