How does the NFL salary cap interact with this free agency period and then the Draft? Do franchises have to leave room in their cap to sign players out of college or are rookie contracts separate from the cap?
I also don't understand what a tracker mortgage franchise tag is.

Basically you force the player you tag to remain on your team for another year and he is paid the average amount out of the top 5 salaries in his position.
It gives the team a chance to continue working on a contract with a player they want to stay long term.0 -

They have to leave room, but they can be over the cap at this stage anyway and if they cut someone they can get some of their cap space back (based on how much of the contract was guarranteed). Rookie contracts are on a set tier now so most teams know exactly what they need, and only really 1st/2nd/3rd round rookies are getting paid any decent amount.
The franchise tag is basically a mechanism which allows a team to force a player to remain for one extra year at the team. They get to use it once and the player they use it on gets an amount which is calculated based on the top earners at their position in the league (the exact calculation I don't know). It's usually a last-ditch effort to keep an elite player at the team.0 -

There's seperate rookie salary caps. Franchise tag is where the team can't agree on terms with a player who's in his final year of contract and about to become a free agent, so he gets signed to a 1 year deal at a set amount.0 -

I have a horrible feeling the 9ers are going to suck this year
They're going to have a really interesting off season with Kaepernick possibly being shown the door along with Gore and Crabtree. Throw in a new head coach too and it will be a pretty interesting year.
They'll be doing well for it to be a successful one though. Whole new offence is needed now.0 -

More NFL questions, to keep ye on a roll! :pac:
1. Are there any transfer fees in player trades? If not, is it because they aren't allowed?
2. If a player is traded to a new team, is his contract with his former team rescinded or does the new team agree to fulfil the terms of his old contract? (or either?)
3. In contract announcements, I notice a part of the money is stated as "guaranteed". What does that imply versus "unguaranteed"?
4. Anyone want to play Madden 25 on PS4?
