    Cap flexibility. These guys likely won't be getting signed.

    1. They become unrestricted, so the Cats can negotiate to sign them.

    2. The Cats may well not want 14 garbage players on their roster, so by selecting RFAs they get players they can decide not to keep without taking a cap hit, however small.

    How does this work? Why don't they just give the league a list of the players they want? Why drag it out?

    Anyway, so far:
    F Lonny Baxter Washington
    G J.R. Bremer Golden State
    C Primoz Brezec Indiana
    G Maurice Carter New Orleans
    C Predrag Drobnjak L.A. Clippers
    F Desmond Ferguson Portland
    F Marcus Fizer Chicago
    G Richie Frahm Seattle
    F Brandon Hunter Boston
    F Jason Kapono Cleveland

    After most picks they spend mindless minutes talking the guy up. Zzzzzzzzzzz.

    What was hilarious was after one particular guy, the host turned to Bernie for elaboration on the player and Bernie simply said, "let's move on". :D The guy is a RFA and they obviously won't even consider offering him a new deal as a total FA.

    Pavlovic can play. Fizer as well. Bremer had a decent season a while back with BOS I believe. But its the players and pcks they got for *not* picking some players and *for* picking others that will be most important...
