Each guide explains a rule the way the cap sheets apply it, and every dollar figure in them is the same figure the cap sheets use for the current season, so a guide can never say one thing and a team page another. Where the rule comes from the collective bargaining agreement or the 2025 memorandum of understanding, the guide says so.
The guides stop where the site stops. What the site does not model, such as offer sheets and entry-level slides, is listed on the Methodology page rather than explained here.
