What is the 2014 Salary Cap?The 2014 Salary Cap is set at $133 million per Club, a $10 million increase over the prior year.How does that number impact each team?The $133 million is the per Club salary cap. However, each team may, at its own discretion, carry over unused salary cap room from the prior League Year. Most Clubs elected to carry over Salary Cap room from 2013 to 2014. The average carry over for those teams that elected to do so was $6.1 million per Club. Thus, those Clubs have an average of $139.1 million to spend on player salaries in 2014.How is the Salary Cap calculated?The Salary Cap is calculated by taking a percentage of all projected NFL revenues, subtracting projected benefits for the upcoming season, and dividing by 32 teams.What are team minimum cash spends?Under the current CBA, Clubs have minimum cash spending requirements. For the years 2013-2016, Clubs are required to spend an average of 89% of the Salary Cap over the four-year period. League-wide, Clubs must spend an average of 95% of the Salary Cap over the four-year period.This creates a cash-spend floor, forcing historically low-spending Clubs to offer overall competitive compensation for packages.Are player benefits taken out of this $133 million?The $133 million Salary Cap is the cap on active player salaries. In addition, each Club will spend in excess of $33 million in benefits. This includes pension, severance, workers’ compensation, insurance premiums, disability benefits, etc.
That's a nice increase.
We're going to dedicate our extra cap to our new uniforms. Gucci Handbags over the shoulder... you know, for extra padding of the right ribcage. Accessorize!

I thought it was going to be to repair all the helmet earholes that Jason gets ahold of.

No repairs needed. They didn't feel a thing. Disinfection is a different story tho.....
What were the initial estimates? I saw our available cap space went up like 3 mil on otc.com from when I looked a day or two ago.
Bucs had an estimated 17mil before the increase....that's not including rollover which is at the very least a few million. So the bucs are now looking at 30+ million in cap space. This is why I didn't see a point in crying about the money revis makes.
I'm not sure I understand. The cap is increasing 10 mil from what it was last season, but there was already a projected increase from last season, correct? It's just increasing more then what was expected if I understand correctly. overthecap.com currently has the Bucs with 124,619,123 counting against the 2014 cap but estimates 18,791,539 in remaining 2014 cap space. That would seem to me to include the increase in the 2014 cap AND 2013 cap space roll-over. Considering those two figures together equal 143,410,662. But I can't understand the NFL salary cap to save my damn life, so who **CENSORED**ing knows really.

The estimate I saw was around 35 million, but now I can't find where I saw it.
As far as I can tell we've got a bit under $19 million to spend.Top 51 salaries: $120,838,952Dead Money: $139,119Total Cap Hit: $120,978, 071NFL Cap: $133,000,000Rollover Money: $6,769,781Bucs Cap: 139,769,781Cap Space available: $18,791,710
