Eli goes from $9.6M in 2012 to $20.85M in 2013 against cap

Seems excessive, but the salaries seem excessive to me. Well JR get busy and figure this thing out; but from my perspective the next few years will not be pretty!

I would think Reese has been working on this since he was promoted.

also, 21 free agents is not a problem if you don't plan to re-sign them all. A majority do not want Osi back. I thinking the Giants only re-sign 4-5 at best and the rest will be testing out the FA market.

but you then have to have $$$ to replace them, over the cap and 22 players to sign and rookies , not good

Here's where the team owners did help themseleves out a bit with the current CBA. All Rookie Contracts are capped and the amount years are set.

Poor RG3 has to play 4 years (3 more now) being run into the ground just to approximately match Eli's cap hit for 2013.

Your assuming RG III will be RG III when he is done with rehab.

We're all Giants fans. We'll assume the best.

The Redskins will make him play out his contract or keep him as a backup for the rest of his contract regardless. He still has an arm for the moment. He won't cost them much in terms of team salary cap under his rookie contract.

Every time I think we should push player "X" back from an injury something like RG III happens and I realize we handle the injuries the right way.

Well that's because unlike the Redskins, the Giants and a majority of people with common sense in this world actually listen to their doctors.

not unusal but when you need upgrades as well as re sign players its an issue. i expect some enjoy their team fielding 2nd string players as starters.

Apart from Hakeem Nicks, of course.
