But like I said, OC and LT will add at least 6 million to our cap.

2 million for DLP leaves 4 million for a LT.

A 4 million LT is probably just a decent journeyman.

A good LT is gonna be in the 6 to 7 million range all by himself.

If you blew all your wad on the mansion you will, we do it all the time......

You buy the most expensive outfit, and when you put it on sometimes you can feel the lint in your pocket instead of the money that should be there inside the pockets..... Lol

Loomis himself said in an interview recently that it wasn't as bad as everyone thought. He said the number was closer to 14 mil. As much as I hate and distrust ESPN, their numbers line up it would seem.

On another note, looks like I've finally hit 100 posts
