Arizona Cardinals

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $34M (5th)
Total Cap: $270M (23rd)
Dead Cap: $21.6M (20th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Justin Jones (DT, 27): Left the Bears on a 3 year, $31M contract that includes fully guaranteed salary in all 3 seasons. He projects to be a starter on the DL.

Bilal Nichols (DT, 27): Left the Raiders on a 3 year, $21M contract that includes $12M fully guaranteed through 2025. He projects to be a starter on the DL.

Jonah Williams (OT, 26): Left the Bengals on a 2 year, $30M contract that includes $19M fully guaranteed through 2025. He projects to be the starting RT.

Sean Bunting (CB, 27): Left the Titans on a 3 year, $25.5M contract that includes $14.1M fully guaranteed through 2025. He projects to be the starting LCB.

Mack Wilson (OLB, 26): Left the Patriots on a 3 year, $12.75M contract that includes $6.4M through 2025. He projects to be the starting WLB.

Notable Trades

Acquired Desmond Ridder (QB) from the Falcons in exchange for Rondale Moore (WR).

Additional Thoughts

The Cardinals enter 2024 with just 3 cap figures north of $10M (Kyler Murray, $49M, Budda Baker, $19M, Jalen Thompson, $12M). #4 overall selection Marvin Harrison Jr. is one of the most anticipated team adds of the entire NFL offseason. Last year’s LT D.J. Humphries was designated a Post 6/1 release, leaving behind a $7M dead cap hit each of this and next season.

Atlanta Falcons

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $3.1M (31st)
Total Cap: $290M (4th)
Dead Cap: $6.1M (30th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Kirk Cousins (QB, 35): Left the Vikings on a 4 year, $180M contract that includes $100M guaranteed through 2026. He projects to be the Week 1 starting QB.

Darnell Mooney (WR, 26): Left the Bears on a 3 year, $39M contract that includes $26M guaranteed through 2025. He projects as the Week 1 WR2.

Charlie Woerner (TE, 26): Left the 49ers on a 3 year, $12M contract that includes $4.1M guaranteed through 2024. He projects to be the TE2 for the upcoming season.

Notable Trades

Acquired Rondale Moore (WR) from the Cardinals in exchange for Desmond Ridder (QB).

Additional Thoughts

The selection of QB Michael Penix Jr. at #8 overall just weeks after guaranteeing $100M to Kirk Cousins remains the big storyline for this team heading into the 2024 season. Across the roster, CB A.J. Terrell & TE Kyle Pitts are already extension eligible, while WR Drake London will become so after the upcoming campaign. It feels like a make or break season for a LOT of people attached to this organization.

Baltimore Ravens

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $6.3M (28th)
Total Cap: $278M (13th)
Dead Cap: $14.8M (26th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Derrick Henry (RB, 30): Left the Titans on a 2 year, $16M contract that includes $9M fully guaranteed through 2024. He projects to be the RB1 for the upcoming season.

Deonte Harty (KR/WR, 26): Left the Bills on a 1 year, $1.3M contract ($1.1M guaranteed) to take over return duties in Baltimore.

Notable Free Agent Losses

Patrick Queen (LB, 24): Joined the Steelers on a 3 year, $41M ($13.8M guaranteed).

Geno Stone (S, 25): Joined the Bengals on a 2 year, $14M contract ($6M guaranteed).

John Simpson (G, 26): Joined the Jets on a 2 year, $12M contract ($6M guaranteed).

Notable Extensions

Justin Madubuike (DT, 26): Signed a 4 year, $98M extension from a $22M franchise tag offer that includes $53.5M fully guaranteed, $75.5M for practical purposes.

Rashod Bateman (WR, 24): Signed a 2 year, $12.8M extension (3 year, $15.25M total value) to replace a potential 2 year, $18.5M remaining rookie contract. The new deal includes $4.5M fully guaranteed.

Nelson Agholor (WR, 31): Signed a 1 year, $3.75M fully guaranteed extension.

Notable Trades

Sent Morgan Moses (OT, 33) to the Jets with a 4th round pick for a 4th & 6th round pick.

Additional Thoughts

The free agent signing of RB Derrick Henry carries the headline into training camp, though a massive extension for DL Justin Madubuike certainly set a tone. Post-2024 futures for OT Ronnie Stanley, CB Marlon Humphrey, & even TE Mark Andrews could very much be in question, so the upcoming season could feel like a bit of a last ride in certain cases, especially when we include $275M+ of cap allocated to the 2025 roster already.

Buffalo Bills

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $7.5M (26th)
Total Cap: $281M (9th)
Dead Cap: $61.2M (2nd)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Curtis Samuel (WR, 27): Left the Commanders on a 3 year, $24M contract that includes $13.1M fully guaranteed. He projects to be the WR2 for the upcoming season.

DaQuan Jones (DT, 32): Rejoins the Bills on a 2 year, $16M contract that includes $10.5M fully guaranteed through 2025. He projects to start on the DL.

A.J. Epenesa (ED, 25): Rejoins the Bills on a 2 year, $12M contract that includes $6.5M fully guaranteed through 2024. He projects to start on the DL.

Nicholas Morrow (LB, 29): Left the Eagles on a 1 year, $1.5M contract that includes $750,000 guaranteed. He projects to start at the SAM position.

Notable Trades

Sent Ryan Bates (G, 27) to the Bears for a 5th round pick.

Sent Stefon Diggs (WR, 30) to the Texans with a 5th round pick, for a 2nd round pick.

Additional Thoughts

The Bills went through a painful February and March, releasing & trading away key pieces of their recent successful puzzle. For the most part, each yang received a corresponding ying via free agency & the draft to follow, but there’s no question that a very different Buffalo Bills team will hit the field in a few months. One unmentioned notable from above: OLB Von Miller took a near $9M pay cut to remain with the organization this season.

Carolina Panthers

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $5.6M (30th)
Total Cap: $288M (5th)
Dead Cap: $46M (9th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Robert Hunt (G, 27): Left the Dolphins on a 5 year, $100M contract that includes $63M practically guaranteed through 2026. He projects as the starting RG.

Damien Lewis (G, 27): Left the Seahawks on a 4 year, $53M contract that includes $26.2M guaranteed through 2025. He projects as the starting LG.

Josey Jewell (LB, 29): Left the Broncos on a 3 year, $18.75M contract that includes $10M guaranteed through 2025. He projects to start as an inside linebacker.

D.J. Wonnum (ED, 26): Left the Vikings on a 2 year, $12.5M contract that includes $1.25M guaranteed. He projects to start on the DL.

Dane Jackson (CB, 27): Left the Bills on a 2 year, $8.5M contract that includes $5.1M guaranteed. He’s projected to start at LCB for the upcoming season.

Notable Extensions

Derrick Brown (DT, 26): Tacked on 4 years, $96M to an $11.6M 5th-year-option, including $60.6M practically guaranteed through 2026.

J.J. Jansen (LS, 38): Signed another 1 year, veteran minimum extension to remain in Carolina.

Notable Trades

Acquired Diontae Johnson (WR, 28) from Pittsburgh with a 7th round pick in exchange for Donte Jackson (CB, 28) and a 6th round pick. Johnson brings a 1 year, $10M contract with him.

Sent Brian Burns (ED, 26) & Tyrone Tracy (RB, 24) to the Giants for a 2nd round pick and two 5th round picks.

Additional Thoughts

The Panthers are taking another stab at buying a better ball club in 2024, pumping out a league-high $260M worth of free agent contracts this past spring. There’s a world where more than a dozen players added via free agency, trades, or the draft this offseason become new starters for the Panthers in 2024. Carolina has the 6th most overall salary cap allocated this season, but are middle of the pack in 2025 as currently constructed.

Chicago Bears

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $21.6M (14th)
Total Cap: $270M (24th)
Dead Cap: $13M (27th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

D'Andre Swift (RB, 25): Left the Eagles on a 3 year, $24M contract that includes $15M practically guaranteed through 2025. He projects to be the starting RB1.

Kevin Byard (S, 30): Left the Eagles on a 2 year, $15M contract that includes $7.4M fully guaranteed. He projects to be the starting FS.

Gerald Everett (TE, 30): Left the Chargers on a 2 year, $12M contract that includes $6M fully guaranteed. He projects to serve as the TE2 behind Cole Kmet.

Patrick Scales (LS, 36): Returns to Chicago on a 1 year veteran minimum contract.

Notable Trades

Sent Justin Fields (QB, 25) to the Steelers for a conditional 6th round pick.

Acquired Keenan Allen (WR, 32) from the Chargers for a 4th round pick. Allen brings a 1 year, $23.1M contract with him to Chicago.

Acquired Ryan Bates (G, 27) from the Bills for a 5th round pick. Bates brings a 2 year, $8M contract with him to Chicago.

Additional Thoughts

Big Draft. Notable Trades. Plenty of Juice. The Bears added 3 key offensive weapons (Swift, Allen, Odunze) to go with their new QB1 but also didn’t go “all the way in” this offseason (14th most cap space still entering camp). Any sign of life in 2024 could mean for a massive 2025 offseason however (projected $74M of cap space).

Cincinnati Bengals

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $23.3M (13th)
Total Cap: $271M (21st)
Dead Cap: $6.5M (29th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Sheldon Rankins (DT, 30): Left the Texans on a 2 year, $24.5M contract that includes $8M fully guaranteed. He projects to start on the DL.

Geno Stone (S, 25): Left the Ravens on a 2 year, $14M contract that includes $6M fully guaranteed. He projects to be the starting FS.

Zack Moss (RB, 26): Left the Colts on a 2 year, $8M contract that includes $3M fully guaranteed. He projects to be the starting RB1.

Trenton Brown (OT, 31): Left the Patriots on a 1 year, $4.75M contract with $2M guaranteed. He projects to be the starting RT.

D.J. Reader (DT, 30): Joins the Lions on a 2 year, $22M contract ($7.4M guaranteed).

Notable Trades

Sent Joe Mixon (RB, 27) to the Texans for a 7th round pick.

Additional Thoughts

Tee Higgins signed his $21.8M franchise tag and is fully expected to play out 2024 on it before hitting the open market next March. This should mean a massive contract extension for Ja’Marr Chase is in the works (but not necessarily imminent). Cincy made a few calculated offseason additions, but for the most part - remained fairly conservative.

Cleveland Browns

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $12.7M (20th)
Total Cap: $311M (1st)
Dead Cap: $15.7M (25th)

Notable Free Agent Adds

Za'Darius Smith (ED, 31): Rejoins Cleveland on a 2 year, $23M contract that includes $12M fully guaranteed through 2024. He projects to start on the edge.

Shelby Harris (DT, 32): Rejoins Cleveland on a 2 year, $9M contract that includes $4M guaranteed through 2024. He projects to start on the DL.

Jordan Hicks (LB, 32): Leaves the Vikings on a 2 year, $8M contract that includes $4.5M guaranteed through 2024. He projects as the starting middle linebacker.

Jerry Jeudy (WR, 25): Signed a 3 year, $52.5M extension on top of a $13M 5th-year-option that includes $41M fully guaranteed through the 2026 season.

Dustin Hopkins (K, 33): Signed a 3 year, $15.9M extension including $8.3M guaranteed that keeps him under contract through 2027. He's now the 5th highest average paid kicker in football.

Notable Trades

Acquired Jerry Jeudy (WR, 25) from the Broncos for a 5th & 6th round pick. Jeudy would extend out to a 4 year $65M contract a week later.

Sent Leroy Watson (TE, 26) to the Titans for a 7th round pick.

Additional Thoughts

For the most part, the 2024 offseason was about retainment for this Browns organization. The addition of Jerry Jeudy to the receiving core offers depth for today, and a possible replacement for Amari Cooper, who enters 2024 on an expiring contract. Cleveland boasts a league-high $311M of cap allocated to their roster right now.

Dallas Cowboys

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $10M (23rd)
Total Cap: $280M (10th)

Additional Thoughts

The Cowboys certainly lost more than they gained this offseason, but still may be good enough to post a playoff berth in 2024. That won’t help the situation surrounding expiring contracts for QB Dak Prescott, WR CeeDee Lamb, & G Zack Martin. Is it one last ride for this Cowboys collective as we know it?

Denver Broncos

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $6.4M (27th)
Total Cap: $285M (7th)
Dead Cap: $67.6M (1st)

Notable Free Agent Adds

John Franklin-Myers (ED, 27): Signed a 2 year, $15M renegotiated contract that includes $8M fully guaranteed.

Notable Trades

Acquired Zach Wilson (QB, 24) from the Jets with a 7th round pick for a 6th round pick. The Jets agreed to retain $2.7M of Wilson’s 2024 salary, leaving Denver with a 1 year, $2.7M (guaranteed) contract.

Acquired John Franklin-Myers (DE, 27) from the Jets for a 6th round pick. Franklin-Myers signed a 2 year $15M renegotiation upon his arrival.

Sent Jerry Jeudy (WR, 25) to the Browns for a 5th & 6th round pick.

Additional Thoughts

Impossible to say anything about the Broncos’ offseason without referencing the Post 6/1 release of QB Russell Wilson. The move leaves behind $53M of dead cap in 2024, which is the 3rd largest cap hit in any capacity right now for the upcoming season (Watson, $63M, Prescott, $55M). Denver ripped off a lot of band-aids this spring, but still show signs of life on paper - for now.

Detroit Lions

Current 90-Man Roster Financials

Top 51 Space: $38.4M (2nd)
Total Cap: $251M (32nd)
Dead Cap: $25.2M (16th)

Amon-Ra St. Brown (WR, 24): Tacked on 4 years, $120M to a 1 year, $3.3M remaining contract that includes over $87M for practical purposes through 2027.

Penei Sewell (OT, 23): Tacked on 4 years, $112M to a 2 year, $23M remaining contract. Sewell is now guaranteed $85M over the next 4 seasons.

Notable Trades

Acquired Carlton Davis (CB, 27) from the Buccaneers with two 6th round picks for a 3rd round pick. Davis signed a 1 year, $14.5M restructured contract that includes $12.7M guaranteed through 2024.

Additional Thoughts

Despite four major contract extensions hitting the books this spring, the Lions enter camp with the 2nd most Top 51 cap space in the league, and the least amount of total cap allocations. They’ve constructed themselves to make a multi-year contention run, and are set up to be aggressive next March should the roster require it.

Green Bay Packers

Additional Thoughts

An organization that almost never focuses on free agency almost exclusively focused on free agency this offseason. The Packers smell blood in the water both divisionally and across the NFC, and added impact players with hopes of pushing into serious contention. Look for some of that ample cap space ($27M) to be utilized in a massive extension for QB Jordan Love in the coming weeks.

Houston Texans

Sent Maliek Collins (DT, 29) to the 49ers for a 7th round pick.

Additional Thoughts

Aggressive. Realizing your 2nd-year QB may be a generational talent can make a front office do crazy things, and the Texans took the guardrails off this offseason in hopes of building an immediate AFC contender. Acquiring 3 offensive weapons via trade, and bolstering the defensive line with major free agent contracts is a pretty great start. Houston will need to get creative next offseason from a cap perspective, as they currently boast 10 cap hits north of $10M in 2025.

Additional Thoughts

Feels more like a do-over than an add-on year for the Colts, who most certainly are looking to see a full season out of QB Anthony Richardson before making too many offseason splashes. Locking in their WR1 (with value) & retaining their defensive line certainly helps their cause for the upcoming season. Indy holds 9 cap hits north of $10M in 2025 right now, so there’s work to be done.

Additional Thoughts

QB & EDGE rusher under contract long-term, O-Line & D-Line bolstered via free agency, ample cap space to maneuver midseason or rollover into 2025. This is a team on the cusp of contention, if they’ve made the correct choices. Watch for a late summer extension for offensive weapon Travis Etienne.

A sizable cap-conversion on QB Patrick Mahomes’ 2024 salary opened up enough room to retain two important DL pieces (Chris Jones, Michael Danna), but the loss of Sneed in the secondary will be something to monitor this fall. Jones & Mahomes account for $101M of 2025 salary cap right now.

Bringing in Gardner Minshew to compete for Aidan O'Connell for the QB1 role is certainly one way to go, but there are already murmurs from some of the veteran players on this squad (Maxx Crosby, Davante Adams) that turnover could be coming soon. Adding Wilkins to the D-Line will help, but this roster doesn’t seem complete enough to be consistently successful. This could be very active trade deadline team.

Additional Thoughts

The Chargers enter into a new regime with a lot of new offensively (Ekeler, Allen, Williams, Everett out), and not as much new defensively as we expected (Bosa, Mack return on pay cuts). This is a middle of the road team financially speaking, but it seems like the pendulum could swing either way after 2024. If the wheels fall off, look for a significant purge next March.

Additional Thoughts

The Rams are a team sitting on the fringe, ready to pounce when the opportunity arises. They prioritized edge defense at the top of their draft, fortified the interior of their offensive line in free agency, and added a few depth weapons for QB Matthew Stafford, who could be in line for a renegotiated extension of his own this summer.

Additional Thoughts

There’s no question that on paper, the Dolphins lost more than they gained this offseason. But a deep roster can afford to take on subtractions for the greater good of the business when needed. So far that business has led to a sizable extension for WR1B Jaylen Waddle. Will it come to full fruition with an extension for QB Tua Tagovailoa this summer as well? If not, the Dolphins will be in the franchise tag business next February.

Additional Thoughts

Minnesota had a plan to get younger in every facet of their roster this offseason. Has it torpedoed their ability to contend in the NFC North? Vegas certainly thinks so (+1000 to win the division, +300 to make the playoffs). With that said, three notable defensive additions (Greenard, Cashman, Van Ginkel) plus multi-year guarantees for Jefferson, Addison, & Hockenson seem to be a strong framework to quickly rebuild from. Look for a big-boy extension for OT Christian Darrisaw this summer.

A new era is ushered in with - extensions. New England’s two biggest free agent deals went to players they ended up retaining (Onwenu/Bourne), and the Patriots handed out $200M total to new contracts for Barmore, Dugger, & Stevenson this spring. Obviously there’s a core here that the front office is pleased with. Will a swap from Mac Jones to Drake Maye be the big flip that this organization needs to get back on track? The Pats enter camp with the most Top 51 cap space ($41M) in football, while also holding a league-high $102M of projected cap space in 2025.

The Saints are operating like a team that is stuck somewhere in the middle right now.

Additional Thoughts

The Giants saw significant players leave on massive deals this offseason, but did an adequate job of replacing the majority of their holes (at least on paper). Adding Brian Burns to the mix defensively, and Malik Nabers to the arsenal offensively could be major shots in the arm for a team that lost its way last season. QB Daniel Jones has a clear out in his contract after 2024 if the wheels fall off again.

Additional Thoughts

The Jets continued their push to bolster the offensive line this offseason both in free agency (Tyron Smith, John Simpson) and at the top of their draft (Olu Fashanu). They then focused in on adding additional air weapons in free agency (Mike Williams) & the top of the draft (Malachi Corley). Tell us you’re going all-in to keep Aaron Rodgers happy & healthy without telling us. This is a Top 5 financially allocated roster right now that could turn a few heads in 2024 if things bounce the right way.

Additional Thoughts

Retirements from Jason Kelce & Fletcher Cox forced the Eagles to turn over a few younger leaves for the upcoming season. Additions of Bryce Hugg & Chauncey Gardner-Johnson certainly help defensively in that regard, but a decision to bring in an older (more expensive) Saquon Barkley over a departing D’Andre Swift could prove to be controversial. With that said, Philly handed out 5 notable extensions this offseason (a product of their aggressive bonus/cap structures), furthering their plan to be an NFC contender for the foreseeable future.

Pittsburgh didn’t just replace Kenny Pickett this spring, they replaced him with a future Hall of Famer AND a former first rounder at the same time. Everything about this roster from a financial standpoint screams middle of the road. Will their place in the standings echo that?

San Francisco utilizing a revolving door approach with much of their defensive line this offseason, opting for better business outcomes in almost every regard. Sweetening Christian McCaffrey’s pot certainly seemed a worthy move, but much of the attention this summer will turn to the WR room, where both Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk have been rumored in trades, while top draft pick Ricky Pearsall will be looking to make an immediate impact in Year 1. Oh, and of course there’s that looming Brock Purdy extension discussion coming this December…

Acquired Sam Howell (QB, 23), a 4th round pick & a 6th round pick from the Commanders in exchange for a 3rd & 5th round pick. Howell brings a 2 year, $2M (non-guaranteed) contract with him to Seattle.

Additional Thoughts

The Seahawks had a chance to rip the band-aid off completely this past winter, but chose to run most of their roster back for 2024. This is still a talented roster on paper, but they could be eyeing the same near .500 outlook they finished with in 2023. Most of their major contracts (Geno Smith, DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Dre’Mont Jones, Julian Love) hold clear cut outs after 2024 should the wheels fall off completely.

Notable Trades

Additional Thoughts

Tampa ran it all the way back this offseason, locking in Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans, Antoine Winfield, Lavonte David, and even bringing back old friend Jordan Whitehead to round out the spring. It’s a winnable division if a few young pieces develop quickly, and Mayfield continues his veteran growth spurt, but this is also a team carrying $55M of dead cap (4th) after a 2023 season where they carried over $81M. Rebuilding on the fly in this regard comes with its challenges, but the NFC South might be weak enough to make this approach doable.

Acquired L'Jarius Sneed (CB, 27) from the Chiefs with a 7th round pick in exchange for a 3rd & 7th round pick. Sneed was extended out 4 years, $76.4M upon his arrival.

Additional Thoughts

The Titans responded to finishing near the bottom of the AFC last season with an aggressive about face this March that included two big secondary adds (Sneed/Awuzie), a bigtime receiver (Ridley), & an immediate attempt to replace Derrick Henry in Tony Pollard. If the goal is to give Will Levis a legitimate chance to grow into the QB1 of this franchise going forward, Tennessee’s front office has certainly stepped up their part of the deal. With that said, this is still a bottom 3rd team in terms of cap allocations for both 2024 & 2025. There’s room to grow if the success on the field dictates.

Additional Thoughts

New regime, new QB1, and apparently no time to waste in Washington. The Commanders were far more aggressive this past free agency than many expected them to be, but are still very much in “evaluation” mode with much of their roster. If a few of these 2024 draft picks pop early, look for a young front office to be extremely active in trade discussions as early as this October. Washington boasts the 3rd most cap space ($36M) heading toward camp.
