Manage The Cap is back. Pick your team, work through its roster and cap decisions, then see what your offseason adds up to.
If you've been waiting for Manage The Cap to return, thanks for sticking with us. Here's a look at how it plays out.
Run your team's offseason in Manage The Cap. It's free in beta, with no account required.
One team, from the cap sheet to draft day
We picked Denver and followed the offseason through to the finished-team page. These are real screenshots from an example simulation captured September 23, 2026, not a prediction of the Broncos' actual moves or results.
We used automatic options to advance the run, including free-agent signings and the remaining draft picks. We inspected cut and trade previews without confirming those moves. Your decisions can take your team somewhere different.
Start with the team you know

Choose the team you follow. You probably already have someone you want to keep, a position that needs help, or a contract you'd like to move on from.
Start with the players already on the roster. Review expiring contracts and re-signing options, then work through cuts, restructures and trades. Read the cap hit, savings and dead money before deciding.
If you want to understand a number before making a move, our Manage The Cap cap-math explanation covers the rules behind those figures and the tool's limits.
Fill the gaps in free agency

After reviewing the roster, look at where you still need help. Filter the market by position, review asking prices and decide where to make offers.
We used the automatic options for this part of the example. You can work through the market yourself and see what happens when you spend differently.
Make the pick with your cap still in view

By draft day, you've already had a chance to reshape the roster. Do you fill a remaining need or take the prospect you like most?
The cap balance stays visible while you decide. The draft is part of the same offseason, so the roster and the money remain connected.

Look over the team you built

The team page brings the roster, leaders and unit grades together. Use it alongside the offseason review to see who arrived, what changed and where you would make a different call next time.
Our Broncos run is a starting point. Pick your team and run your own offseason.
