Can't we extend Vacarro and have the contract start next year with no effect on the current season?


TB touched on this but yeah you can choose to leave the current year alone or "rewrite" it with a lower salary and some of the bonus money.

It all depends on length. If it's a 4 year extension they'll almost assuredly put some bonus into this year (max length to stretch a signing bonus is 5 years). If it's a 5 year (or longer) extension they may leave this year be.

But it could go a few other ways too.

All depends on what the player and team want.

Isnt it possible that we are trying to have some good roll over cap space for when #BreesGate happens next year?

Could be, as it does borrow $3 mil from other years also (not counting next year), meaning we gain an extra $3 mil next year if it all rolls over, (but lose $1 mil each the other 3 years).

Or that we are doing a deal with Vaccaro?
They should let him walk when his contract is up. His level of play isn't that hard to replace with a mid-level draft pick.

Me too, but Peat at LT and Kelemete at LG was not bad at all.

Hopefully he's fully healthy with no lingering injuries.
