ESPN's roster management system updates the salary-cap space and cash spending of each team weekly, and here is this week's breakdown:
CAP SPACE
27. Patriots -- $6.7 million
28. Steelers -- $6.657 million
29. Eagles -- $6.654 million
30. Lions -- $5.6 million
31. Saints -- $4.6 million
32. Chiefs -- $2.9 million
Quick-hit thoughts: No major change from last week, as the Patriots are tighter to the cap than the norm, in part because they borrowed some on the 2015 cap last season (e.g. Darrelle Revis $5 million dead charge). For context, the Jaguars have a league-high $32 million in cap space.
CASH SPENDING
1. Bills -- $148 million
2. Eagles -- $145 million
3. Jets -- $141 million
4. Patriots -- $135 million
5. Colts -- $134.8 million
6. Steelers - $134.6 million
7. Texans -- $133.8 million
Quick-hit thoughts: To see three AFC East teams in the top four highlights that the division will be paying more than any other this season in terms of cash spending. The Dolphins, at $128 million, aren't too far behind. For context, the lowest teams in terms of cash spending are the Buccaneers ($90,529,000), Ravens ($94,231,000) and Lions ($96,333,000).
