I vaguely recollect Fisher choosing not using all the cap savings from Cook/Laurinaitis/Long cuts this year but choosing to carry over the cap savings to 2017. Like five million in unused money they were rolling over. Anybody else remember?

With all costs taken into consideration in my estimate, the Rams currently have close to $53 million in salary cap space for 2017 (based on the league-wide salary cap rising to $170 million). If Nick Foles ($12.25M cap savings), Rodger Saffold ($4.22M), Coty Sensabaugh ($4M) and Lance Kendricks ($4.25M) don't perform up to expectations in 2016, all four could become salary cap casualties in 2017, with the Rams gaining an additional $24.72 million in salary cap relief. The Rams also appear to be in a position where they will be able to carry over up to $5 million in salary cap space from 2016 to 2017. The Rams could very well have close to $83 million in salary cap space entering the 2017 offseason.
