Matt Khalil. At least he’s the last one designated. Luke counts around 7.5M this year because they waited until after June 1 to cut/retire him. 
 

   It should definitely be use on KK. They could do someone else as well. 

From a dead money vs cap savings standpoint, Paradis seems like he’d be a strong candidate. However, we’d then have 4 spots to fill on the OL assuming Moton gets the tag. That’s too many spots to fill in one offseason. Although you could look to fill that spot with a cheaper option.

This off-season is a big one for this organization.

  Paradis and his contract is already “split” because of voidable years. Even if he stays, 1.8M(of his remaining 5.4M dead cap hit) would come off this year, then the team would still have 3.6M to account for next year. Same if the designate a June 1 or wait until after then to cut him. Only way they would eat all 5.4M next year, is if they trade him before June 1

And you could be 100% correct, but if you’re hand picking your destination every little thing matters. 
 

But in the words of MJ I definitely think Cam took it personally. 

all players take it personally when things don't end on their terms, that is human nature.

This idea that Cam had this major influence on other players, especially in free agency, was always over played by this fan base.

Players want to get paid, they want to win, and they want to live in a nice area.

Yea but in this case I’m referring to someone who calls Cam his mentor.

The malcontented Watson and the Texans were 4-12 this year. However, a lot of people in this group seem to think we can wreck our rebuild for many years to obtain him and he will perform some type magic that would instantly make us Super Bowl contenders. The supposed price to get him would not be worth the reward in my opinion.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
