Saints Cap Moves: $33,780,933 cap space ….. 8 restructures, 3 extensions, 3 pay cut, 1 release [All current cap moves are in OP below line]
More spending doesn't necessarily equal more wins, but the result of an all in strategy is the need to wind down spending for a few years to get back to normal. Still crazy that we went all in with DA. Cash spending ranks by year:
2022 - 5th
2023 - 9th
2024 - 23rd
2025 - 31st
That table does show the almost hidden constraints of our cap. We are second to last in actual cash spending for 2025, at $195m. Two teams neighboring us in cap space are spending around $50m more each, and they both have more restructuring capacity than we do should they decide to go that route.For you lovers of cosmetic cap space...
