Has been pretty impressive that this has all taken place with just the restructure of
Brown's contract...

Gotta hand it to him, this has been an impressive off-season so far.

Read this today about those numbers on Bouchette's blog:


The union’s figures for the Steelers under the salary cap at NFLPA.com are wrong. I have used them for reference in the past. For most of yesterday, however, they had the Steelers at $78,000 OVER the cap. Teams are not permitted at any time to be over the cap once the new league season started March 11 and there are heavy fines if they do so. The Steelers were not over the cap. In fact, I was told by an extremely good source they had $600,000 of cap space before they signed Brice McCain yesterday.

I sent an email to a NFLPA rep yesterday asking how that $78,000 figure could possibly be on their web site. I received this response: “Yes, those figures are incorrect. Our salary cap department is not sure where you found that information.”

I told him to let them know it was on the front of their web site, where it lists every team’s supposed salary cap information. This morning, NFLPA.com reports the Steelers have $171,934 in cap space. Again, I’m told that is not correct, that they have closer to $400,000. Anyone can look at those numbers but if you do, use it as a guide, not as a necessarily accurate one.
