Which is why you saw CLE and JAX go crazy in free agency because they were way under and needed to spend near 100% of their cap to bring their rolling average up.

So, it is not "use or lose" except in opportunity cost.

Yep, that's what I was trying to articulate by stressing 2018-2019. Do we really want to see them roll over $20MM in cap space until Ballard is ready to start re-signing his draft picks? That's a long time down the round and a missed opportunity for near-term results.

What is the adjustment of $2,202,764 for? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
