As opposed to saving 7 million against the cap over the next to years, yes its a great move.
Or his new contract changed his signing bonus, or the prorate of it.
Evidently with the changes in his contract all of his dead money got accelerated into this year.
What are you talking about?
It has everything to do with it. You can't look at it in the vacuum of one season. How does it affect our cap the following year? The year after? The year after that? You're basically saying it is ok to pay extra money in order to distribute the money differently. I would say who gives a shit about how it is distributed. In totality you are paying him 3.5 mil more by keeping him then you would by not keeping him.
That doesn't make any sense. You can't just clear signing bonus money that you have already paid the man magically. Not unless he paid the money back to the Cowboys.
From everything I have read they are still on the books for his original signing bonus regardless. So, his prorated cap hit still happens next year, I think. I will yield to others that know more than me.
It is too late. You already didn't yield.
I'm fairly sure what I have read is correct, but maybe I'm missing something.
I thought you were yielding.
I am now yielding. Officially and stuff.
