Previewing the New England Patriots 2016 Salary Cap (Part 1) - Updated on December 6th

A couple of my Twitter followers asked for a New England Patiots 2016 salary cap preview. Please note that I have used Brian McFarland’s preview of the Ravens 2016 salary cap a template for this blog post.

These numbers were last updated on December 6, 2015.

Quick summary – The Patriots are going to have to make several difficult decisions in the next year about which young players to retain. I will presume that the 2016 salary cap will be $154 million. Given that we are about 4 months away from the start of the 2016 League Year (4PM, March 9) this preview is probably a bit premature so I plan to update this in February after the Super Bowl.
