I am in cust 72, LA Eathquake, and am totally confused about the cap.
Can someone please explain how this works?

Your cap is a mess this season. You are only allowed to spend $177,294,654. Somehow, most likely from all the dropped players, you have incurred slightly over $73 million in dead cap. That is cap space being charged against you for players that are no longer on your team. You have $19.3 million to spend with $17.8 million needed for draft picks this season. That doesnt really leave you much for free agents. Your cap situation will be much better next season being that you only have $147,847 in dead cap. You'll have approximately $93 million to spend next season on free agency and draft picks.

Thanks, that's what I thought, but wasn't sure if the draft/cap space was total or separate.
