[QUOTE=DJ's left nut;11377900]Yeah, and by making it such a low number in year one, they effectively have reduced the year 2 number via the cap rollover provisions. Any cap space saved in year 1 carries over into year 2 and to some degree reduces that amount. That cap rollover completely changes how contracts should be structured.
I keep thinking "Y'know, maybe we should just outright cut Bowe rather than June 1 him so we aren't carrying his dead money next year" but then I remember that the June 1 cut on him would free up a bunch of cap this year that, if unused, would just carry over to next year and end up offsetting that dead money anyway. So the added flexibility to deal with something like a front-loaded offer sheet to Houston would be huge.
If you're savvy about how you use those rollovers, you can really do some nimble cap maneuvering.

Really good part of your post. Agreed.
