Re: Saints lead NFL in 2014 cap commitment

I'm fairly confident Loomis will sort this out. Some key things for me:

1) Players are always willing to 'help out' and restructure because it usually involves them getting more guaranteed money which is exactly what they are after

2) Nobody has put up any figures for Cap Savings, i.e. all of the money committed this season that will not be present next season unless we re-sign players. So Vilma for example costs $3.8 million on the cap this year but then he is an UFA next season. That's an instant massive cap saving

3) We are always going to have, and rightfully so, a massive cap commitment to Drew Brees. There is every chance he will restructure as part of point 1 at some point, but eventually he will retire. Not trying to be a doomsayer, just saying that whilst we have a Hall of Famer under centre and giving us every chance of a lombardi, we do everything to keep moving cap commitments to the right until we get a huge chunk back.

Hahaha! I love it! Other than centre (center) and football (soccer) what other sporting terms do you Brits misspell?
