Is that correct? The salary cap just says this: "BI-ANNUAL EXCEPTION -- This exception is available only when a team is below the "Apron" (see question number 20). This determination is made after the exception is used, so a team below the Apron cannot use this exception if doing so takes it above the Apron. It cannot be used by a team that has already used its Taxpayer Mid-Level or Room Mid-Level exception." http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q25
which implies that as long as they use the BAE first, before the Room exception, they would be OK.
I just listened to an interview with Tony (which I'm pretty sure happened after this article) where he says we have the 3.6 and 4.7 million exceptions. Dude needs to get his **** straight on this cap stuff
