RV: NYG have $7,547,931 in cap space; Fells, Selvie details

made around $125,000...:)

so that's a lot of tuna...

"A Chicagoan shopping at Kroger's could buy turkey for 35 cents a pound, bread for 19 cents a loaf, or eggs for 43 cents a dozen. A 1956 Pontiac cost $1,695, a year-old Cadillac, $3,345. For $800 down and a total of $15,800, a three-bedroom, brick home with a full basement could be purchased in the south suburbs.

Athletes' salaries in 1956? A congressional antitrust subcommittee would reveal the Bears ranked third in the NFL, behind the Browns and Rams, with a team total of $352,958 in salaries. Individual Bears' salaries ranged from $6,500 to $14,200."

"Footnote: Despite being routed in the title game, Halas upped ticket prices in 1957 to $4.50 for box seats and $3.50 for grandstand seats in Wrigley Field."

...so nothing is guaranteed except the up-front money, and the team gets a couple of $00K in cap relief.

Selvie has no salary guarantees either (per Spotrac), so he's cuttable if younger prospects outplay him in camp/preseason. His NLTBE incentives are for sacks. I don't know the threshold(s).

even without the draft allocation of about 6M.
Then can work 1 more signing if it isn't, a few if it already includes the draft class.
