First post will be nothing but info on newer rules, the more misunderstood rules, and players that are not under contract next season.
Cap will be $109,000,000
Some new CBA rules and tender amounts (including a new 2nd round RFA tender and a few other new rules) -
RFA definition - Any Veteran player with three or more Accrued Seasons, but less than five Accrued Seasons (or less than four Accrued Seasons in any Capped Year), shall, at the expiration of his last Player Contract during such
period, become a Restricted Free Agent. Any such player shall be completely free to negotiate and sign a Player Contract with any Club, and any Club shall be completely free to negotiate and sign a Player Contract with any such player, subject to the restrictions of compansation and right of first refusal.
Accrued season definition -
For the purposes of calculating Accrued Seasons under this Agreement, a player shall receive one Accrued Season for each season during which he was on, or should have been on, full pay status for a total of six or more regular season games, but which, irrespective of the player’s pay status, shall not include games for which the player was on: (i) the Exempt Commissioner Permission List, (ii) the Reserve PUP List as a result of a nonfootball injury, or (iii) a Club’s Practice or Development Squad
RFA's with only 3 Accrued Seasons -
Highest RFA tender amount - $2,350,000 - Compensation - 1st & 3rd Rounder
1st rounder RFA tender amount - $1,850,000 - Compensation - 1st Rounder
2nd rounder RFA tender amount - $1,300,000 - Compensation - 2nd Rounder
Lowest RFA tender amount - $850,000 - Compensation - Round player was drafted in. If player wasnt drafted by the team giving the tender then all they get is the right of first refusal.
All of those amounts could be higher as the tender is those amounts or 110% of prior years salary which every is higher.
EFA's with less then 3 Accrued Seasons -
Tender amount - minimum yearly salary
Minimum Yearly salaries for the the 2007 season are as follows -
Zero Accrued Seasons - 285K
One Accrued Seasons - 360K
Two Accrued Seasons - 435K
See the next post for the Spreadsheet, (if you dont see it yet, it means I am still putting it up as you read this.)

Joe, you are my hero. There are so many guys who have the biggest numbers that might not even be with the team when it is all said and done (Pace, Ross, Johnson).

I think we can count on that 2.8 mil salary coming off the cap.

Alex Marvez, of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, compiled a list of the projected '07 cap space for the NFL's 32 clubs. The Eagles are 25th on the list, just $12.4 million under the league's '07 cap of $109 million.
Nineteen of the league's teams will have at least $21 million in cap space. The San Francisco 49ers top the list with $42.1 million in projected space, followed by Buffalo ($39.7), Arizona ($36.7), Tennessee ($36.0) and Cleveland ($33.3).
The Cowboys are 19th on the list, with $21.5 million in projected space. The Giants are 21st with $15.7 million and the Redskins are 31st, ahead of only Pittsburgh, at $951,000. How will Dan Snyder ever get through the month of March?
As an unrestricted FA Shipp is outta here. And I don't blame him.
Why do you say that? He's a backup that's an okay goaline back. He's not going to start anywhere, and he's not going to have a role bigger than what he has here. Why not stay?

Thank you for breaking the circle of suck, Bidwill--Stout, December 7 2008.
We might have to eat the rest of his bonus on this years salary cap, so we won't save all of the $2.8 million.
You are correct. Grand total off the cap would be 1.4 million.
