    That’s how I see it as well.
    How close to the football operations cap are they considering they have lost Alex Russell, Edwin Harrison, Josh Bell and Corey Mace?

    They also rewarded Dinwiddie with a new (presumably much more expensive) contract. Re-signed Donovan and some other assistants, probably with raises. Might have given Vince Magri a hefty raise -- he deserves one anyway, and IMO is someone many teams on both sides of the border would love to steal. Harrison and Bell were probably not being paid much, possibly Russell as well. We really have no way of knowing how the ftbl ops cap is being managed, but I bet it's not as simple as we saved money by losing guys X, Y and Z so can shower it on guys A, B and C.

    Never said it was that simple, I’m not convinced the ops cap is at play here.
    Wouldn’t be surprised if another coach is added on the defensive side.

    It can't be at play. I'm sure the Mace extension was for big money, and doubt they have fully replaced that money with the hires or extensions.
    It's us vs the rest of the country

    That’s what I’m thinking as well Angelo.
