Saving Cap Dollars for a Rainy Day

Back in August and September, and even throughout the season, the Jets were criticized by fans and media for not spending to the salary-cap limit. I addressed the issue in a mid-August story, pointing out one of the reasons behind the unused cap dollars. Here's a graph from that story:

For competitive reasons, (Mike) Tannenbaum didn't want to disclose his spending plans, but the GM appears to have an eye on the future. Unused cap room can be pushed into future years and, according to a source, the Jets are planning to use that mechanism to help them re-sign players in 2012 and beyond.

Now it all makes sense.
