JP do you really think Harper is going to renegotiate? He just reworked his contract and played reasonably well. Loomis might be able to do it but other players deserve to take a pay cut more.

Keeping Smith for less money sounds like a good deal. Could some money be moved to incentives?

He's not taking less money, he's restructuring it so that it doesn't create a huge cap hit, but rather spreads it out more evenly.

He's still overpaid, just now he's more balanced in his overpayedness.

Also, I don't know if they are adding the last year to his contract, because under the former contract it was an optional year.

Did you write speeches for a former president?

This is now one of my favorite lines...

Kidding aside, agreed that he's overpaid for the production - too bad you can't have a standardized, league-wide incentive package that would be separate from the capped-pool; that way guys are getting paid AS they produced rather than for what they've done in the past...
