Q: Cap implications of an Edelman trade?
A: An Edelman trade before 6/2 would result in $5,333,334 dead money. Since his cap number is $9,666,666 trading Jules would increase Patriots cap space by $3,658,332 if we presume a player w/ a $675 salary takes his place in the Top 51

The above tweet is an informational tweet. I am not advocating a Jules trade.
A post 6/1 trade would result in $2,966,666 dead money in 2020 presuming Jules earned his 300K offseason workout bonus. A post 6/1 trade would increase Patriots cap space by $6.025M if we presume a player w/ a $675 salary takes his place in the Top 51
An Edelman trade after 6/1 also results in $2,666,668 dead money on the 2021 cap while creating $6.5M in cap space in 2021. No Top 51 effect since there are not 51 players on 2021 roster.
