Cutting him would have had the same cap ramifications as trading him. $2.8m accelerated, $4.2m total dead, saving them from his $8.4m base salary.
With or without his restructure? I have a basic understanding of how these things work, but I am far from an expert.

I've been onboard with all the trades/cuts so far but this one sucks imo.
Unless he was truly a headache, which maybe he was, this was a bad trade. No one in the 3rd round is going to produce more.
Ellerbe is almost 30 and coming off a major injury. Don't like it.
Releasing Stills and letting Walker go without a tender are going to hurt. Even if we replace Stills, I think we got the raw end on this trade.

The restructure only affects our cap. For the Dolphins, a cut and trade would have the same cap effect.
