I thought a June 1st cut spread the cost over 2 years?

Often the case, but it depends on the terms of the contract and when it was signed...

But when you opt out the remaining dead cap money comes off the books. right?

Well, how much of the contract was signing bonus? roster bonus? workout bonus? game base pay/that year's base pay?

Having the contract structured in that way gives team greater flexibility in getting contracts under the salary cap...

For example, if we moved Armstead, short of him doing a sign and trade, that first season we still take the hit his base of the calender year he's moved, then signing bonus could be accelerated into that year...

That's why trades are so difficult outside of the NFL Draft...
