These are the cap obligations for the transactions you have posted, however, the total amount exceeds your available cap. These transactions, extensions and releases, come to a net amount of $55.7m. This exceeds your available cap by $5.5m. In order to extend and keep these players, you must either release other players to get an additional $5.5m or decide not to accept some of the extensions to be cap compliant.
Please review and post how you will rectify being over your available cap. There are two different options available for Belt and Ramos.
