o why not simply aspire to play for the Dallas Cowboys? Even though they fall within the scope of the Final Eight Plan, the Cowboys will be permitted to sign one big-money unrestricted free agent, as long as the first-year salary is roughly $5.5 million or more.

what is he talking about?

Can someone post the article?

Dansby has a four-team wish list

 

Posted by Mike Florio on February 14, 2010 12:26 PM ET

Cardinals linebacker Karlos Dansby most likely won't be a member of the Arizona Cardinals a month from now. The penny-strangling Cardinals have used the franchise tag twice on Dansby, and using it a third time would require the Cardinals to offer Dansby a one-year deal equal to the average 2009 pay of the five highest-paid players in the league, regardless of position.

 

And while other teams aren't permitted to talk to Dansby until March 5 (and all 31 teams surely will respect that rule . . . no, I'm not rolling my eyes . . . I'm just checking and re-checking the ceiling for tarantulas), nothing is keeping Dansby from talking about other teams for which he'd like to play.

 

Recently, Dansby listed four teams in which he's interested during an appearance on Sirius NFL Radio: the Giants, Chargers, Dolphins, and Redskins.

 

As pointed out by the New York Post, Dansby expressed an interest in joining the Giants last year, before he was slapped with the franchise tag for a second time.

 

"That's just like playing for the Dallas Cowboys," he said.

 

So why not simply aspire to play for the Dallas Cowboys? Even though they fall within the scope of the Final Eight Plan, the Cowboys will be permitted to sign one big-money unrestricted free agent, as long as the first-year salary is roughly $5.5 million or more.

guess no one knows. now i'll have to look it up:

 

 

During the Final League Year, the eight clubs that make the Divisional Playoffs in the previous season have additional restrictions that limit their ability to sign unrestricted free agents from other clubs. In general, the four clubs participating in the championship games are limited in the number of free agents that they may sign; the limit is determined by the number of their own free agents signing with other clubs. They cannot sign any UFAs unless one of theirs is signed by another team.

 

For the four clubs that lost in the Divisional Playoffs, in addition to having the ability to sign free agents based on the number of their own free agents signing with other clubs, they may also sign players based on specific financial parameters. Those four only will be permitted to sign one unrestricted free agent for $5.5 million (estimated) or more in year one of the contract, plus the number of their UFAs who sign with another team. They also can sign any unrestricted free agents for less than $3.7 (estimated) million in year one of the contract with limitations on the per year increases.

 

In the case of all final eight teams, the first year salary of UFAs they sign to replace those lost cannot exceed the first year salary of the player lost with limitations on the per year increases.
