Restructure Brees: save 15 mil
Restructure Gallete: save 10 mil Done your 5 mil under the cap and can still make other moves to get more FA signings... that was easy. Stop worrying about the CAP. |

It's a fully guranteed roster bonus. Now, if it wasn't guaranteed, you would be right and it would be paid only if he is on the roster. But writing the guaranteed money as a roster bonus only changes the way it is paid and accounted for. |

That would save them about 10 million. Add Brees fixing that mess of a contract and we will be fine.

Re: $20 Million over the Cap in 2015. What would you do?
Colston Grubbs and Evens in 2016 are huge cap causality targets and they know it
cut bait before 2016 in savings Evens around 8 mill Grubbs around 7 mill Colston about 7 mill if i remember correctly. so redoing their contracts would behoove them all because odds are they will never see that year of the contract. Which they already knew. that is why i say address OL now in the draft early. you have some serious depth for players with that RT/OG ability. top of the draft we have not seen two in years. shame to miss out on youth with solid low risk high reward players. you save more redoing those contracts this year than cutting same goes for Curtis Lofton but his cut bait date 2017. but i am expecting him to redo that contract also. |

A roster bonus is a bonus that a player gets because he's on the roster on a specific date. Every offseason you hear of players who get cut - i.e., they are removed from the roster - before roster bonuses are due because teams don't want to pay roster bonuses. |
