Whats The cap at in 2006

[Divine]

That is without the definite Howard cut, correct?

Actually, put the brakes on the R.Howard gets cut idea. I was taking a look at Howard's contract and I realized that he was signed up till 2009! If that is correct, then cutting him may actually be a bigger hit than keeping him or asking him to re-structure. I know that if we keep him that is a cap hit of $3 million this year which is a combination of salary and bonuses. If we cut him before June 1st, we would not owe him the $1 million per year salary but we would owe him ALL OF THE REMAINING BONUSES through 2009! That is 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009! Just this year's bonuses alone are $2 million! If it is anything like that for the remaining years...we will cost us $8 million to cut before June 1st and probably $4 million after June 1st. So, it looks like we are not cutting him...we are probably going to ask him to re-structure and keep him as the 5th CB behind our New Free Agent, W.Poole, T.Daniels, and S.Mitchell. If he re-structures then he will save us. But if he doesn't...we are fked!!! S.Madison will be cut or traded probably after June 1st as he would only count as a little under $3 million instead of a little over $6 million if we keep him.

He isnt going to restructure. Since you looked at his salary, do you see what his contract escalates to?

There is no way we are paying our 4th CB that much money. We should just suck up the dead cap hit on Howard and cut him.

Why would Reggie restructure?

We are going to cut him.
