My question is why do we care? If the salary cap is still the same amount, guaranteed contracts would not even transfer money from the owners to the players. They would transfer money to aging stars with big contracts who got hurt and would otherwise be cut from players who teams might add on short term deals as a luxury if they have cap space. In many cases these could be some of the same players. If the Giants could not cut Daniel Jones they may not have money for Russell Wilson. But if the Broncos could not cut Wilson then the Giants could not have him anyway. If the Browns could have cut Watson then perhaps they dont have to cheap out on Flacco and they get in a bidding war for Rodgers or Wilson or Darnold. Guaranteed contracts are a big win for players in a league without a salary cap like MLB but with a salary cap they are only good for particular players because they mean much less money or no offer at all for others because that money is taken. I see why many players want them. I see why agents want to say they are the ones who can get them. But I dont see why fans care.
