For a longer explanation of the cap holds
section, visit the free
agent cap holds page, which attempts to be comprehensive, concise and
interesting. Failing that, it's hopefully at least one of the three.
The key thing to remember is that you don't actually PAY cap holds; they're
just charged to your cap space to plug a loophole, and thus are integral
to calculating cap space. For the full story, visit that link.
For a quick explanation of draft pick cap holds, visit the draft
pick cap holds page. Unlike the free agency cap holds page, though,
this one definitely whiffs on being "interesting." Also note that second round draft picks do not have cap holds.
