Great to know. Because we can only have 53 and can afford only 5-6 more.

4 mil in cap space
6x league min 405K = 2.4M

We start the season with 1.6M in cap.

Is he the replacement for Chris Ivory?

... In good hands with "Alston"?

What Payton does in late rounds and UDFA is more exciting to me than rounds 1 & 2.

I am thrilled to see guys like this coming to compete.
