Cuts and Signings Around the NFL

cut after June 1st, we save 27 million with only a 9 million cap hit. It is very conceivable that we cut him and get that 27 million back

 

They aren't going to cut him

They would have already

 

If we cut him this year, we would owe 57 million. 38 million post June 1st. No way they could swing that. Next year is likely.

 

Next off-season, yes.

He is a Titan this year

 

Ryan Tannehill

has the highest cap hit

of all qbs in the entire league


excuse that if you want, but something is very very very very very wrong about that picture.

 

It's the consequences of restructuring a deal. People need to realize this. They often act like restructuring makes a problem go away, it doesn't. It just kicks the can down the road, making it worse in a future year.


Basically, it's like they are taking a loan out against a future cap year.

 

Exactly why they chose not to restructure again this year. They are washing their hands of him unless he takes us to at least the AFC Champ Game.

 

Damn that contact for Autry is sweeeeet! Way to go JRob.

 

You do realize that the reason this is "very very very very very wrong" is due for the exact same thing you're saying you want the Titans to do and someone should get fired for?

You can't have it both ways. You can't manipulate the cap without dealing with some consequences.

 

Exactly!

If you want the team to manipulate the cap and make big signings then this is what happens. Can't have it both ways.
