The Arizona Cardinals have traded veteran offensive tackle Jared Veldheer to the Denver Broncos in exchange for a sixth-round pick in this year's draft.

The 30-year-old Veldheer [url=http://www.authenticsnewyorkjets.com/cheap-nathan-shepherd-jersey]Nathan Shepherd Color Rush Jersey[/url] , at 6-foot-8 and 322 pounds, started 53 games in four seasons with Arizona after coming to the team from Oakland, where he spent his first four NFL campaigns. Veldheer played left tackle the first four seasons and switched to the right side last year.

It was apparent Veldheer didn't figure in Arizona's plans under new coach Steve Wilks [url=http://www.thebroncosfootballauthentic.com/su_a-cravens-jersey-authentic]Youth Su'a Cravens Jersey[/url] , especially after the team signed free agent and ex-New York Giant Justin Pugh, who figures to take the right tackle job with D.J. Humphries on the left side.

The move Friday saves Arizona $6.9 million in salary cap space. The sixth-round pick is the 182nd overall.

G League salaries are going up next season, to $35 [url=http://www.greenbaypackersteamonline.com/j_mon-moore-jersey]Authentic J'Mon Moore Jersey[/url] ,000 for most players and up to $385,000 for those on two-way contracts.

Salaries also can be enhanced through bonuses and call-ups. NBA teams called up 50 players a total of 60 times last season, generating just over $11 million in additional salary.

The G League also says about 25 percent of its players this past season earned an average of $44 [url=http://www.pantherscheapstore.com/donte-jackson-jersey-cheap]Donte Jackson Youth Jersey[/url] ,000 in affiliate player bonuses. The maximum regular salary in the G League was around $26,000.

There also are pools for G League players who go to the playoffs and win end-of-season awards.

Two-way players next season will earn up to $77,250 [url=http://www.cincinnatibengalsteamonline.com/a.j.-green-jersey]A.J. Green Youth Jersey[/url] , topped on days where they’re called up by the prorated NBA rookie salary.
