Nothing too surprising here, but there’s more actual data than most articles about cap spending.
Some key points from the article:
Should more teams push the way the forward-spending Eagles push? Led by Lurie and general manager Howie Roseman, the Eagles have consistently, more than other teams, spent more cash in the short term at the expense of future salary-cap space, getting what Roseman has called an “interest-free loan” as growing league revenues fuel massive increases in the cap each year.
The top 10 teams in cash-over-cap spending from 2020-24 averaged 57.4 weighted wins. The bottom 10 teams in cash-over-cap spending averaged 39.0 weighted wins.
