[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 713823"] Sure, the Packers may get 5 productive seasons out of him. Or they may not. That's pretty of obvious. There's no denying the dead cap in year 3 is $11.1 mil and the cap saving only $3.6 mil. He can perform some margin under the deal in the first 2 years would still be retained in year 3. What can you buy with that savings? Not much. Through year 3, the total cap commitment runs to $39 mil. That's the effective guarantee barring career ending injury or going in the tank, playing at something like a Datone Jones-level of productivity in year 2. And consider Perry in year 4. His status then will be roughly equivalent to Cobb this season who's 2017 cap number is $12.7 mil, with $6.5 mil dead cap and $6.2 mil cap savings. I think we can agree that Cobb has not played up to the contract and I think most would agree that a repeat of his 2014 season is not in the cards. But it's the dead cap and the cap savings numbers that keep him in the equation. I never said this a bad deal. I said it's the deal the market bears. To say it is "team friendly" based on the guarantee figure is a misrepresentation. [/QUOTE]
