Catfish Bob Posted September 30, 2019 Report Share Posted September 30, 2019 To those of you who have a understanding of how the salary cap and all that stuff works. If every player on a team (the final roster) got paid exactly the same and at the max salary cap what would that yearly salary look like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_C_Deadpeople Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 Sean Payton's new deal pays him $13M per year, by far the highest paid HC. A reminder that although there is parity in the league in terms of salary cap for players, the front office disparity grows between the good teams and team like the Bengals.

The league on the whole must average 95% of the cap or the owners get equally fined and that money goes to the players. Yet another reason the other owners don’t like the Brown family because they rarely spend to the 95% figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An no doubt they hate him because he contributes little to nothing in terms of the building the league brand and increasing revenues overall. He is just a leach on the league.

He is just a leach on the league. Every professional league needs teams to fill out a schedule and to draw national interest across the nation. The harsh reality is if the league had to pick one team to move to a new locale to further enhance the reach and brand of the NFL there is little doubt which team would be selected. With the Colts, Titans, Browns, Lions, Bears and Stealers all within 300 miles of Cincy, it would be easy to pluck the biggest loser of the bunch with the least amount of history and put them somewhere more beneficial to the bottom line. St. Louis, Mexico City and London are calling! Our current home attendance stands at 73% which is by far the worst in the league. Tampa is second worst at 84%. The midpoint is 97%.

So that adds 5 or 6 more? I was just thinking one night what if a team paid every player exactly the same. No player on the team was worth more than the next on a monetary basis. Wouldn't attract players like ODBJ or Melvin Gordon but would possibly make it possible to have a very deep team with hella special teamers.

stryker57 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 i dont think practice squad players are included in the salary cap, as far as" if there is any max amount they can make " i am not sure but they are signed as free agents so i would say you could probably offer them anything you want. but at any time another team can claim them,i dont think they can decline but since they are automatically on the new teams 53 man roster i doubt they would if they could. and unless we promote them ourself we lose them.
