NFC East 2024 Offseason Financials
Spotrac’s 2024 NFL Offseason Series continues with a look at each of the four NFC East teams, breaking down their estimated Top 51 cap space, pending unrestricted free agents, a few notable bubble players, and potential ways to free up more cap space this winter.
AFC: NORTH | EAST | SOUTH | WEST
NFC: NORTH | EAST | SOUTH | WEST
Dallas Cowboys
It was a bit of a roller coaster at times, but the Cowboys secured another NFC East title with a strong finish down the stretch. There are some holes to fill in terms of free agency & a potential cap casualty or two, but this offseason will be largely about taking care of their own - notably QB Dak Prescott, WR CeeDee Lamb, & ED Micah Parsons. Dallas rolls into the offseason around $11M in the whole in terms of Top 51 cap space.

CAP CLEARING POSSIBILITIES
- Extend QB Dak Prescott, lowering his current $59.4M cap hit in 2024. Prescott projects to a 4 year, $200M+ extension in our system, though a deal north of $55M per year is very much expected.
- Either designate WR Michael Gallup a Post 6/1 release ($9.5M freed up after June 1st), or process a full base salary conversion, freeing up $5.9M when factoring in 2 void years.
- Extend WR CeeDee Lamb, lowering his current $17.9M cap hit in 2024. Lamb projects to a 4 year, $114M extension in our system, though a deal near $125M ($31M+ per year) is very possible.
- Process a full base salary conversion on WR Brandin Cooks, freeing up $5.4M when factoring in 4 void years.
- Trade WR Jalen Tolbert, freeing up $943k of cap. Tolbert has shown glimpses of being able to handle a WR2 role, but the Cowboys aren’t in a position to wait around.
- Process a full base salary conversion on G Zack Martin, freeing up $13.4M of cap when factoring in 4 void years.
- Process a full base salary conversion on OT Terence Steele, freeing up $4.9M of cap.
- Process a full base salary conversion on DE DeMarcus Lawrence, freeing up $7M of cap when factoring in 4 void years.
- Release LB Leighton Vander Esch, freeing up $2.5M of cap
- Process a full base salary conversion on CB Trevon Diggs, freeing up $7.9M of cap
- Process a full base salary conversion on S Donovan Wilson, freeing up $3.5M of cap when factoring in 3 void years.
- Release P Bryan Anger, freeing up $3M of cap

New York Giants
Not exactly what the doctor ordered for the G-Men in 2023, & a few staff heads may roll accordingly, but it appears that HC Brian Daboll & QB Daniel Jones will head into the offseason remaining as the 1-2 punch in NY. The Giants head into the offseason with around $37M of Top 51 cap space, & the #6 overall pick in this April’s draft.

Philadelphia Eagles
Was it a Super Bowl hangover? Maybe, but there are too many positives (contractually too) on this roster to overreact going forward. Philly will need to replace its running game this winter, & an effort to get younger & cheaper in the secondary could also be in order, but for the most part, the Eagles core unit is under contract, and cap-flexible. Philly hits the offseason with around $28M of Top 51 cap space to operate with.

Washington Commanders
The Commanders fire-sale at the trade deadline was certainly a warning call to the rest of the league that major change was imminent. Just how much still remains to be seen, but Washington enters the offseason with the league’s most cap space ($85M), and the #2 overall draft pick this April. There are worse ways to begin a rebuild.
