Saints have $3.1 million in cap space after the Chris Ivory trade

WhoDat!656 · 04-30-2013, 08:53 PM

Following last week’s draft-day trade of running back Chris Ivory from the New Orleans Saints to the New York Jets, the Saints have a little more salary cap space.
According to figures from the NFLPA, the Saints now have $3.1 million in cap space. By sending Ivory to the Jets for a fourth-round pick, the Saints were able to save Ivory’s $2.023 million salary.
Since landing with the Jets, Ivory has signed a three-year, $10 million contract.
The Saints can spend some of their cap savings to sign a remaining free agent. They’ll also need about $1.6 million to $2 million in cap space to sign their rookies.

We have to sign the rookies, and maybe you get one more camp body to challenge to be the starting LT!!!

Ivory jetison was needed. Still not enough but certainly good enough to get everybody on the field. I honestly don't see where else to trim fat at this point to make any real impact on the books.

We need to save for our Fa's in 2014. The more we save this year the better. 3 players on that list are a must sign and one will not be cheap.
