Dear Fellow Buffalo Bills Fans,

Here is an update from my previous posts. I have now included our first 4 draft picks, the rest have salaries projected to be below our top 51. The cap numbers for these rookies are the cap numbers for the rookies selected in the same spot as them last year - we will see an increase in these numbers and I will update them when appropriate. I have also included the dead money involved with trading Sheppard and added Hughes' base salary. Most of the numbers here are taken from overthecap.com
