Just in time for the bottom tier, aged out, injury prone players! Yay!

There our two allowed June 1st designations for the year.

There's the Ramczyk deal! I wouldn't be surprised if they were waiting as long as possible on the results of Ramczyk's surgery earlier this offseason. The deal points to it likely extending Ram's career. If so then that's great news.

After the Ramczyk deal and the Willie Gay signing we may still have as much as $10-$15 million in cap available for free agency. Possibly even more. It depends upon the details of both deals.

We will have to see the numbers on Ram's deal. I agree with KT that we won't know until he actually sees the field (and then how he holds up on the field). Every doctor is optimistic about every surgery. Every coach and front office person is optimistic about keeping any player they can't afford to cut. But as we have seen, results on the field may vary.

If Ram took a pay cut without future guarantees that is good and makes sense given the state of his career. If he $17 million salary just got pro-rated into the future that is not good, especially if any future money got guaranteed.
