NFC South cap woes to continue in 2013 NFL Nation Blog ESPN Weve talked a lot this offseason about how the salary cap has prevented the Falcons, Panthers and Saints from doing everything they would like in free agency. Well,Cheap Terrell Owens Jersey, guess what? The 2013 freeagency period is pretty much guaranteed to be even quieter than this year. Even the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who made a huge splash in free agency, are likely to join the club. I got a look at what all NFL teams currently have committed toward the 2013 salary cap and the picture isnt very pretty. The Saints have been backloading contracts, the Bucs have been frontloading them and the Falcons and Panthers have done some restructuring that takes up more 2013 cap room. ESPNs John Clayton previously reported that the cap is supposed to go from $120.6 million to roughly $120.9 million in 2013. Thats an increase of only $300,Cheap Steve Johnson Jersey,000 not good news for any NFC South team. [+] Enlarge Derick E. Hingle/US PresswireHowever Drew Brees' contract works out, the Saints will be well over the salary cap in 2013.The Carolina Panthers already have $118 million committed toward the 2013 salary cap and thats with only 42 players under contract. Only four teams have more cap room committed to 2013 than the Panthers; Philadelphia leads the league with $134 million committed to 45 players. And remember: The Panthers havent even drafted their 2012 rookies yet. Once they draft and sign those guys, theyll be over the projected salary cap. The rest of the NFC South isnt in much better shape for 2013. Tampa Bay fans can stop griping about ownership being cheap. The Bucs already have $112.2 million committed to 45 players and this years draft class likely will put them very close to next years cap. The Falcons have $108.7 million committed to 42 players in 2013. Throw in this years rookie class and a possible contract extension for quarterback Matt Ryan and the Falcons arent likely to have much room to work with. The Saints currently are fourth in 2013 in the NFC South with $108 million committed to 42 players. But that number is extremely misleading. Quarterback Drew Brees isnt one of those 42 players. Brees currently is carrying the $16 million franchise tag for 2012. Brees and the Saints want to work out a longterm deal. If they do that this year, its unlikely they could structure a contract in which Brees' 2013 cap figure could be less than about $18 million, which would put the Saints well over the projected cap. Clayton has reported that the bump in the 2014 cap will be similar to the increase from 2012 to 2013. So lets say the 2014 cap is a little over $121 million. I also got a look at what each team has committed toward the 2014 cap,Cheap Darren Sharper Jersey, and thats when things should get a little better for NFC South teams, with one big exception: Carolina. The Panthers already have $117.2 million committed to 26 players. Only Philadelphia ($117.3 million) has more committed to the 2014 cap. The Saints have $83.3 million committed toward 19 players. Again, Brees isnt one of them. If he does get a new contract, his 2014 cap figure easily will put the Saints over $100 million. The Buccaneers and Falcons are in much better shape for 2014. The Buccaneers have $79.8 million committed to 21 players and the Falcons have $75.6 million committed to 18 players.
