[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 1003856, member: 7261"] Actually, that was what I thought months ago. However, if I am reading the details of his contract correctly, there is actually a $1.2M savings on the cap this season if he is traded/cut, plus his per game bonuses. Add to that a cap savings of $21.53M next season and it starts to make sense, especially if Bahk is on his final leg (pun intended). As far as his dead cap, that is a sunk cost of $38M, you are right. But since it would be a post June 1st cut/trade, that amount can be split between 2023 and 2024 ($19M/season), which if he stays on the team, is how it is being accounted for any way. Only way to change that, would be to extend the contract. In reality, trading him now only saves the Packers $1.2M on this years cap, hardly enough savings to warrant trading away a once Pro Bowl LT. However, what you pick up in draft capital, plus the $21.53M you save next season, makes the idea very tempting. If he blows that knee again or can't stay healthy, he's all but gone after this season anyway. Initial fan reaction would be anger and disgust, with a little "Packers are throwing in the towel". However, I think in the long run, it might actually be a savvy move by Gute. Finally, is it just me or do others think Bahk would love out of GB and back with Rodgers in NY? [/QUOTE]
