If he is extended we won't be hit for $18 mil.

If he is not extended then that $18 mil won't hit us too hard since we wouldn't also be paying for a premium QB.

But I am curious why the acceleration is delayed a year (unless they just typed it wrong).

Edit:
As I said in the other post it looks like they did type the wrong year and 2018 would be the hit).

Cao hit next year is only $19 mil, and we have a projected $20ish mil in space (likely to be more) with Kruger and Fairley as the only "big" FAs.

We also have about $10 mil to carry over, but at least a couple of mil will be eaten into throughout the season.

So we should have at least $25 mil (maybe closer to $30 mil) in space next year BEFORE any cuts and conversions and such.

Converting Armstead's roster bonus will save us another $4 mil for instance.
