Previously, I wrote an article estimating what the Arizona Cardinals cap space looked like before their signings were made official. After crunching estimated cap hits, draft pool salaries, and release totals, my final estimation of available cap space was $9.975 million, but it could be higher.
While the unknown but the presumably low numbers of new signings Max Garcia and Josh Shaw are not factored in, the Arizona Cardinals could be looking at about $12.1 million in available cap space, per Over The Cap.
But why is that number higher than my previous estimation?
