Every year I tell people cap flexibilty is overrated and if you want to keep or get players you can work it out.

I agree with you but I still don't get it. I thought they had like $2.5mill in cap space. They must have done some wild restructuring while Byrd was sitting there in the offices.

Instead of Decker getting overpaid, he might end up being the discount.
Biggest overpays were Davis, Shields, Whitner so far.
Not what I expected.

You can draw a contract up any way you want to the NFL.
They pay 1 million this year and 12 million next year if they want.
With how long that deal is it has to drawn up in a way that lets that cap hit stretch over a long time.

Just a guess but they probably backloaded the hell out of that contract.

If those teams wanted to keep them they could. It ain't the cap that's causing them to get cut.

Gotta be something like that. With a big guaranteed portion, since he'd be taking a big cut for this first year.
Or signing bonuses or w/e, not like I really understand how the cap works.
I'm eager to see it for what it says about Thomas' extension.

All those teams except Dallas. Even Dallas could have kept Ware but it would be real tough.

That's the perfect marriage of price, contract and scheme fit.
Best deal signed all day.

Saints are giving former Bills S Jairus Byrd a six-year, $54 million contract, including $28 million guaranteed, per source.
:x No thanks.

Whoa.
The worst contracts are definitely handed out the first day of free agency.
