[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 713829"] Let's say he plays at an adequate starter level in year 2, disappointing in playing at neither an impact nor core player level. You're only going to dump him under one circumstance. A bench player gets some significant playing time due to injury and performs surprisingly well. We're not talking about an Elliott or a Fackrell here. Saving $3.6 mil comes down to a "who else ya got? calculation, and given Matthews may be at the end of the line (if not sooner), you'd need 2 "who else ya got" guys. What are the odds of that happening? While the approach I describe is sensible, you can layer on top of that Thompson, more than any other GM, eschewing dead cap like the plague. It's best to view this deal as effectively a $39 mil guarantee, at least, providing Perry plays at adequate starter level. I don't dislike the deal, and it is a good thing Perry is still on this team in the "who else ya got?" calculation. But there is no special performance insurance here. [/QUOTE]
