I'm really surprised you've seen it happen to the AI, since I've never seen them go over the cap, and are often well under it.

I see this happen often to AI teams. there is simply a note on the draft screen that they forfeited the pick. Buffalo has to deal with Allen's big contract and they don't do that well every time. I remember looking to see what his current contract calls for, and the game has it exactly right. Lots of speculative writing in sports land about how they will renegotiate him this year--for real.

I can confirm now that I have seen this happen, and there's a record of it in the transaction log. It looks like if you're over the cap right before the draft, you lose a 3rd round pick in that draft. And if you're over the cap a couple weeks after the draft (probably right before summer vacation?) you lose a 3rd round pick in the next draft.
