[QUOTE="sschind, post: 755721, member: 10247"] I get what you are saying but teams don't really sign players planning for dead cap money. They plan on spending the entire amount so it really only becomes a benefit if they do decide to cut them later on. Over the length of the deal it is a wash but if we decide to cut him in 2 years you are going to be happy we ate the extra money in 2017. There may be some tax benefits but there has to be more than that because teams have made it a point to extend players before the end of the year in the past where there was not expected tax benefits. It does seem less important now that unused cap can be rolled over but I can't help but think there is some benefit in being able to claim a good chunk of an extension in a year that is essentially over.
