Last season, Travis Frederick was chosen 31st overall which earned him a four-year deal worth 3.439 million base with a prorated signing bonus of 844K each season. His cap hit for 2013 with the Cowboys was 1.249 million. While the Broncos have a unique approach with contracts, expect Bradley Roby's cap hit to be in that area.
How much cap space do the Broncos have?
According to this link, approximately 5 million. Adding Roby to the tally would bring their number to about 3.75 million for the season. Now would be a good time to restructure some of those outdated deals the Broncos have on the table.
