The Colts converted Peyton Manning's $10 million roster bonus into signi
ng bonus and lowered his 2007 salary cap number from $16.53 million to $
8.2 million. The Colts also did the same with the $3.9 million roster bo
nus of defensive end Robert Mathis. That lowered his cap number from $7.
11 million to $3.99 million. The dual savings of those deals now gives t
he Colts $14.8 million of cap room. Before making those moves they were
right at the cap.
