DrDawkinstein Posted February 21, 2007 Author Posted February 21, 2007 (Pyrite, 18+18 = 36) so if cut now, we would save $2.8mil this year and $5mil next year. not worth cutting him yet, imo.
Kelly the Dog Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 I think this is correct which means we 2 years worth of $1.8 million in bonus amortization. When you get rid of a player (by cut or by trade) amount accelerates into the current cap hit. Thus, instead of a cap hit of $6.4 million which we have if we keep TKO, the cap hit is reduced to the remaining bonus of $3.2 million. This is how much we have to replace him with if we cut TKO this off-season. The cap hit is 100% immaterial to this year's Bills. We save 4.5 mil, flat. I don't think they are going to cut him anyway, at least until they have training camp and find out if he can run or not.
