Broncos have 6th-most salary cap space in the NFL

Going into the NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos have the sixth-most salary cap space in the league, according to ESPN’s Field Yates.

Here’s a look at the 10 teams with the most cap space, per Yates:

1. Cleveland Browns $37,547,510
2. Detroit Lions $29,488,200
3. Philadelphia Eagles $27,145,824
4. New York Jets $25,164,780
5. Washington Redskins $24,943,685
6. Denver Broncos $24,173,954
7. Indianapolis Colts $23,926,469
8. Miami Dolphins $22,682,552
9. Tennessee Titans $21,896,801
10. Los Angeles Chargers $20,994,933

Even after paying a large rookie class, Denver will still have a decent amount of cap space left. The Broncos will want to have some extra cap available going into the season so they can sign injury replacements and possibly pick up players cut by other teams in early September.

Any unused cap space from this season will roll over and be added to Denver’s 2021 total. Earlier this year, the Broncos rolled over nearly $15 million in unused salary cap space from last season.

Von Miller will be Denver’s biggest cap hit this year ($25.625 million).
