Newbie here... so some questions that might come across as a bit simple but might help me understand more

I see Denver are losing a lot of players considering they won the Superbowl? Why is that? Are they free agents and can negotiate better salaries elsewhere?

Also, I see the term 'cap' mentioned a lot. I assume salary cap? Are all the teams salary cap the same? Or do they vary depending on circumstances? 

It's really difficult to hold onto as many good players as Denver have because they'll get paid more money by teams with a lot of cap space available. This is why drafting well is so important, because every player drafted has their salary capped at a relatively low number (depending on where they get drafted) for the duration of their rookie contract, which is four to five years.

So Mark Sanchez is a Bronco. I think that'll do

Lets butt some fumbles!

The question now is whether we pick up another one in FA or take a shot in the draft. I seriously doubt we go into the season with Sanchez and Siemian as our only options

Do these guys still get paid when suspended?

I don't think anything is set in stone yet . Looks like Pittsburgh are trying to use depression as a mitigating factor.
