Anyone know how much we save and the penalty for cutting Chandler?

$50k however that amount his is workout bonus so assuming he doesn't get cut until training camp and he gets the bonus by attending offseason workouts then it will actually be $0 since it will have been paid to him prior to him getting cut. He'll be on the cap for $1.15M regardless.

For those who are complaining would you rather us have Chandler and Foucault as back ups?

No let me guess you would rather us spend a few million on a injured Jake Long because he was good four years ago.

How about spend 5+ million on Barksdale?

Or we could claim a former 2nd rounder by just taking on his rookie contract of about 1 million.

This was a great move by Gettleman. He isn't going to be the starter unless he earns it and if he can beat out Reammers then he deserves to start. I don't care about what happend two years ago because that is the past.

This is the 'Godfathers' way of sifting through possible gold dust without buying the farm. Isn't it obvious by now that he will not get fleeced with high priced F.A signings that hurt the bottom line. He does the real work at the end of April. All these signings just build a base to compliment the draft.

If he has another stellar draft this year, his focus needs to be on aquiring draft picks! Fug Free Agency

I don't think that much of Martins ability so this kinda worries me that Gman thinks he can help us a lot.

 

Makes me think Oher and Remmers are not as highly regarded as I hoped they might be, but if we can do something with no risk, then why not

 

IMHO Oher and Remmers are stop gappers at best!

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.

      Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
