Teto Salarial: Apos transações, Saints volta a ficar próximo do limite
 |
| Mais um problema para Loomis (esq) e Payton resolverem |
Segundo informações do site NOLA.com, hoje o time tem menos de um milhão de dólares de espaço. Na ultima semana, o site da NFLPA (tipo um sindicato dos atletas) aumentou os gastos do Saints em US$ 700 mil sem nenhuma explicação. Aparentemente, os $2.1 milhões de bônus de Ellerbe, que originalmente seria pago pelo Dolphins, converteu para o time de New Orleans. Como se trata de bônus de assinatura, ele sera pago em 3x de 700 mil.
Isso apertou ainda mais a apertada situação do time. Hoje, o Saints tem 66 jogadores sob contrato para 2015, incluindo a aquisição do lineman reserva Bryce Harris, que assinou um contrato de um ano com o Saints no dia 20 de Marco. Harris terá $60 mil em bônus adicionados ao seu salario base de $660 mil, segundo os registros da NFLPA.
Com isso, o time esta US$844.806,00 abaixo do cap de 2015, sendo que o time precisa de pelo menos $3 milhões para assinar com suas escolhas do draft.
O site NOLA.com divulgou uma tabela detalhada com os gastos do time.

Dessa forma, podemos esperar mais alguns cortes salariais ou ate a saída de alguns jogadores. Lembrando que é normal os times chegarem a pre-temporada com mais de 70 atletas e realizar cortes semanais ate chegar ao numero máximo de 53 jogadores inscritos.
