    With that space they could bring in Bowman and Simon.

    You can almost count on them moving money for Bell.

    Either their freeing up for Bell or another linebacker.

    They don’t need to free up anything for Bell. His cap hit is already accounted for.

    Thought the deadline to sign bell long term was july 16. Is the tag the only option for him?

    It is.. They can't pay him more than the tag.. the extra cap space is not for him

    I could see them bringing in Bowman and cutting Bostic. He was horrible in the preseason. The fact that he played into the 4th quarter of the final preseason game tells me they aren't exactly thrilled with what they see.

    It's possible I don't know the cap implications though and I don't think they're quite ready to admit a mistake if they think it ,so soon. I still think Bostic is gonna be ok . I would think they looked into Bowman already and chose Bostic unless Bowmans demands have come down. Like I said I don't know all the financials....

    Cam pulled the Rooneys aside and made a top secret deal to offer all that extra money to Brady's ball boy ensuring that when they meet in the AFCCG up in Foxboro the balls will have an 3.14 PSI of air in them making it difficult to grip on that mid January afternoon thus ensuring us a SB birth.

    It's fool proof. The phone's already been destroyed.:hehehe:

    Maybe give Bell the money he deserves in my opinion. He might be a diva, but what NFL player isn’t? He’s been our go to guy for a good while now. I think we are going to have problems without Bell. Conor’s a decent backup, but he doesn’t garner the attention Bell does.

    Can't give Bell anything but the Franchise tag amount. That's already set.

    Ben already has a $23,000,000 cap hit this year. If they are extending him I would expect them to free up more money under the cap, not less. They don't need to restructure anyone for him unless they do some really weird contract.

    That'll be really exciting for the two games Lee plays before blowing out 9 different joints making a tackle.

    I read today the Steelers can actually increase it though it has never been done.
