in my team on mfn-1, I am trying to renegotiate one coach to keep him since he's in his final year of his contract, and hire a new coach for my receivers. But when I go to their contract pages, this is what comes up:
Warning: you do not have enough cash flow to make this offer. please reduce, if possible.
Current contracts: $30,482,844 Pending: $6,200,000 minimum for remaining coaches: $0
I'm no negotiator, but does this mean I will go negative in some form of profit? for example, I may have to cut one of my coaches if I don't reduce my offers?

TBH I am and have been confused on this as well and I get those messages now and then, I just ignore them and still just send the contracts out any ways and have never been denied that.

I just looked in at your account and it looks like you're ok, I wonder if you were offering a coach a contract to replace an existing coach to reduce your costs? The bar considers the worst case (i.e. if you attempt to sign a coach to replace an existing coach for less money he may not accept the offer - so the bar still shows the existing coach's value instead of the new coach; or if you have a pending contract that increases the cost of that coach, it shows that instead.)

Not to belabor the point. Since there is no definitive cap number for coaching, is the bar at the top accurate as to how much money a team has to sign a coach?
When I went through and did some coach signings I think I still had half the bar left!

Coach salaries are NOT part of the Salary Cap equation.

Thats not the bar I am referring to. I am referring to the one on the page where you are setting up the coach's contract.

There are two financial caps for your team - the salary cap is for players, and you can sign players that take you over the salary cap but must be under the cap by training camp or the next game stage; the other cap is the coaching salary cap flow, which you cannot ever go over. The corresponding bar shows at the top of the contract offer screens.
