Mark Barron via Trade?

Thinking about it, did we really want to pay Mark Barron 5 mil next season? He's not that good.

 

kaboom.

 

we're in cap hell. we'll have one foot out of cap hell next season but not both feet out until 2016. 5m for a safety who's decent is a really really really dumb move unless you can get him without sacrificing picks.

 

5m is a starting tackle or guard that's twice as good as bell or chandler. i'd much rather have that.

I read that the bucs are paying most of that. I think the rams are on the hook for like 850k.

Barron still has two years remaining under contract, both fully guaranteed, as well as an option year that can be picked up for 2016 after this season. The Rams will take on $902,719 in cap charges in 2014 and $2,362,704 in 2015. The Rams released Case Keenum to make make room for Barron which saves them $262,059 against ths salary cap. The Rams only had about $540,000 in cap room as of today so they likely had to restructure a contract to fit Barron on the roster. In the past the player they always go to in these situations is Chris Long so I would not be surprised if his deal was tweaked today as well.

Casillas was signed this year as a free agent and had received $200,000 in an offseason bonus. The Patriots will take on the the balance of his salay, $582,353, for this year.

The Buccaneers will keep a $2,240,273 dead money charge against their 2015 cap for Barron. They will avoid $902,719 in payments this year for Barron and $582,353 for Casillas which will boost their miniscuke $410,000 in cap room that remained following the extension of Gerald McCoy. This should give them the breathing room they need for the rest of the year.

This is how the rest of his contract breaks down.
