49ers interested in Maybin; Updated cap room for all 32 teams
Tuesday, August 16, 2011 | NinerCapHell
According to Rotoworld.com, the 49ers are apparently interested in the recently released OLB Aaron Maybin.
Maybin is a former 1st-round pick of the Buffalo Bills. He was raved coming out of college as a great pass rusher. But he clearly didn't live up to that bill.
If signed, he would likely have to impress to make the squad. With the likes of 1st-round pick Aldon Smith, free agent pickup Antwan Applewhite and holdovers in Parys Haralson & Ahmad Brooks, he would be looking at an uphill climb to make the final 53 man team.
On another note, here are the updated salary cap space for the entire league. This is as of August 15th, this past monday.
Chiefs: $33 million.
Buccaneers: $29 million.
Jaguars: $28.3 million.
Bengals: $25.9 million.
Bills: $24.6 million.
Browns: $24.5 million.
Broncos: $24.4 million.
Bears: $19.3 million.
49ers: $15.6 million.
Seahawks: $15.5 million
Cardinals: $14.6 million.
Packers: $13.1 million.
Redskins: $10.9 million.
Dolphins: $9.6 million.
Jets: $9.4 million.
Patriots: $9.2 million.
Colts: $7.1 million.
Titans: $6.9 million.
Cowboys: $6.6 million.
Giants: $5.5 million.

Eagles: $2 million
Panthers: $1.7 million.

While these numbers look ok, NFL.com also has come out with their numbers. And their is any real difference. These numbers likely include the $3M in cap credits for 2011, which is where the teams are allowed to designate 3 players with that $1M tag. Now the qualifying is for being on the roster before the lockout ended, and having 4 or more season accrued.
