overthecap stuff

If the contract voids and Brees is not extended the Saints will carry a dead money charge of $18 million in 2019 for Brees.


Well here is exactly what you asked for before Chad.

Not sure why it's $18 mil in 2019 instead of 2018, but if he is extended it doesn't accelerate.

The same will happen with Fairley if we can extend him also.

But I do need to go look into the details on Brees more. $30 mil signing bonus which comes out to $6 mil per year.

Edit:
Looking at both spotrac and overthecap it seems the 2019 was a typo and 2018 will be the $18 mil hit if he isn't extended.

good stuff bone. I ain't worry about 18 mill cap hit, i mean if we draft a rookie, our qb savings will come from that alone.

question cause this is confusing:

if we extend drew, does his 6 mill per year get added to whatever else we extend him for cap hit?

and really, 2018 is only an additional 12 million hit if not extended cause we'd be guaranteed to have a 6 mill hit regardless.
