Is that what Seattle does? What's their breakdown? I want to know how smart teams do it.

Okay. The cap this year is 167 M. 50-55% of that is roughly 83-92 M.

Seattle has 8 guys who get over 7 M in 2017, and they total out to about 89.5 M.

So it;s in the parameters.

Those 8 are Wilson, Sherman, Bennett, Thomas, Graham, Richardson, Wagner, and Joeckel.

That's what you would expect, with one exception. The exception is Joeckel. It's clear that they crammed Joeckel's salary in there just to get OL help.

Interesting. All those guys are pro bowl quality players except for Joeckel.

So that the problem. The Rams are paying all that money to lesser players. That tells me the Rams aren't good at knowing the value of their players.
