Fielding a team under the 2021 CAP

I don't understand extending Peat. If anything we need to cut or trade him and be done with that awful contract. Financially it's not likely, but I can't see paying Peat rather than replacing him. Good Lawd he's bad!

Put your CAP cap on

. Forget about performance and play ability.
Peat is a $9M cap hit for 2021 and a $19.4M dead money hit if you cut him. If you cut Peat you have to cut another 8 players to get under the cap. No one is going to be interested in Peat for a trade because of his contract.

So you extend him, redistributing his cap liability until you can release him in another year without it gutting the team.

May people are hung up on Peat, Peat is the least of out 2021 issues.
