How much cap space do the Jets have left?

They started with $69 million and have spent $48.3 million in cap space so far. Keep in mind, they also tendered WR Jeff Smith, who was an exclusive rights free agent, and re-signed WR Vyncint Smith and RB Jeff Adams, who were scheduled to be restricted free agents, to one-year deals. Terms of those are unknown, but all three are likely somewhere near the NFL minimum. A good guess is that together they only account for about $3 million in cap space, if that.

One other thing: The salary cap only counts the Top 51 players, so for each of the eight players the Jets have signed, one player is removed from the list. Those players are roughly worth about $6 million total in cap space.

That would leave the Jets with roughly $20 million in salary cap space

They will need about $8 million in cap space for their draft class, but not until those picks actually sign. And the Jets still have plenty of ways to find more cap space, if necessary, with restructured contracts or cuts.
