So how does this impact cutting him for the 2015 season?

Makes room for Bailey and room to sign the rookies.

I'd think it increases the chances that he sticks around as a Saint for sure.
I'd say we need to prepare for life without ben grubbs imo. Brandon Thomas in the 5th or 6th.

Oh snap, it looks like it was a pay cut, not a restructure.

This is what I was thinking but was really going to ask the question since I don't really fully understand restructures. Can someone explain?

So the title should reflect a pay cut, not a restructure. Tricky these saints are...

basically, he's taking a pay cut and we not be pushing any more further guaranteed monies into our future years with cap space. He chose to stick around another year at a reduced price rather than be cut.

There is the money needed to sign the draft picks.
I wonder if it's more of a pay cut with some signing bonus to entice him into doing it or a serious restructure where the money is still in play and just moved around.
Hopefully the numbers will be out soon.

Is a pay cut still not a restructure... :HMMM: :SHOVETHATUPYOURASS:

Restructures just turns salary from the current year into a signing bonus so that you can prorate it over the coming years. It usually means you plan to keep them.
But yeah, he took a pay cut.

that works for me
glad we could keep him at a decent price as we move forward...I think we add another DT in the draft for depth in the future. I think ILB and WR are probably the most pressing with C not far behind for the next few years.

#Saints didn't need to cut Bunkley post-June 1, because the market dictated that he'd lose on the open market. Take the pay cut.

hard to accept less money without changing the structure of the contract already in place.
