The job when you take over
- You start $0.98M over the $104.0M cap. Long-term injury relief covers some teams in this spot, but you'll need a trade or a waiver move before you can add anyone.
- 10 contracts end after this season, so next summer's re-signing window decides who stays.
- You've already traded away your 2028 first-round pick. The prospect pipeline matters more than usual.
