Cap Space

Almost every team has cap space. The NFL average for 2020 is $43.6 million in space. That’s a lot of room — almost too much room — for the free agent market. There are 23 teams with more than $25 million worth of space. Every team out there — other than the Falcons, Steelers, and Vikings — will be able to spend somewhere.

That could be dangerous because teams with space don’t always invest wisely. They just throw cash around because they have room so why not do so. That could lead to some bad deals. Since these teams have all this cap room they may even give too much money to the following group.
