Bruce Wants To Pay His Guys

Bruce Allen briefly explained some of his plans for the cap room.

"One of the reasons you want to get some room under the salary cap is so you can extend your own players into the future," Allen said. "...We've had some dialogue with some of those players and we'll continue to do that."

Well, that explains part of it. Guys like Earnest Graham, Jovan Haye, B.J. Askew, and everyone else on his list definitely deserve it. I would also add Greg White because to extend him now will cost significantly less than if they wait until he's a UFA. Continuity is great and it's a good way for them to spend some money.

But there are still big gaps at wide receiver and cornerback, and we were still promised fireworks. It will be interesting to see what he finally delivers.
