re: Thoughts on the Leonhard situation and how it affects Harper/the Draft

the Leonhard relating to drafting is a reach IMO
We've had this Harper talk before. Here's a key mistake you are making...
It is not $3.6mil. We don't know the details but we do know $16mil of his contract is guaranteed. Even if the first two years were completely part of that (we dunno) that would be $9.9 million. That would leave $6.1mil that is guaranteed to him this year whether he was cut or not. So one, that would make a lot of sense. Two, it could only save a maximum of $1mil.

The freeing up of the 3.6 mill would be the biggest factor that I say he's gone

shite. I forgot about the amortized bonus having to be fully compensated in the year the player is expelled. I also admittedly forgot about the 16 mill guaranteed aspect. So I apologize for my cap stupidity. Every time I think I have a damn handle on this thing....
Carry on Harper...
