We want to start the season (September 4th Salary Cap Deadline) NO LESS than 3M below the cap in case of injuries etc...

Re: Cap Status Update for 13 March 2013 (In the Black baby)!
If you want an idea of what drafts will cost us assuming they all make the team you can go off of these 2013 numbers.. I would use the draft pick number that corresponds with our draft picks.
2013 Cap hit 15 - 1.6M 75 - 544k 106 - 504 k 137 - 443 k 173 - 420k The Draft should cost us around 3.5M in 2013 if we keep them all 2012 NFL Rookie Contract Tracker 2013 NFL Draft Pick Pending Transactions I do see some pending transactions for the Saints in the 2013 draft |

Cap situation is looking up as long as the Harper issue gets resolved. |
