[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 655561, member: 4199"] Let's cover each one. Kiko signed a 4 yr(s) / $4,300,401 contract. That's the total. 3 years of signing bonus accelerated isn't very much to swallow. Crazier, he was already traded from the Bills to the Eagles, so [I]they[/I] are on the hook for that dead money/accelerated cap hit. A little googling tells me the Eagles lost a mere 50,000 in cap, which was his workout bonus only. Byron's contract, while huge, is cap friendly-ish. It only had a 6 million signing bonus (prorated bonus) and a 6.5 million roster bonus. Roster bonuses are NOT prorated, so his cap for 2015 was rather large: 6.5 roster bonus + base salary + prorated portion of the signing bonus. These trades, while expensive-ish in terms of dead money, weren't crazy. And were at worst neutral in terms of cap. Cutting Byron appears to have saved 8.5m in cap, but carried a 8.5m dead money number. But thats only for one year. [/QUOTE]
