The Saints are 66M over the cap
... And.$48 mil of it is dead money to 3 players gone last year. The saints are essentially cap bankrupt with very very limited options to get under the cap and still meet the league roster requirement.
I predict that the league is going to create a "saints rule" regarding pushing dead money contract extensions. May limit teams that option every so many years or base it on an average roster age, etc.

Logic would be to allow the offending team to borrow money from the next season's cap at a price (i.e. $1 this year takes away $2 next year) or something along those lines.
It can't be a "luxury tax" like the NBA and MLB have because those are not punitive enough for the big market teams to really be punished. NBA has gotten better but are still a joke.
This system could allow the borrowing once in a 10-year window. It works somewhat like the post June 1 cut/trade dead money deferral, but has a penalty associated with it. This seems like the logical step to me to save face but keep it realistic.
