Nearly every one of the big contracts either falls of the books in 2019 or could be cut for large savings with little to no dead money. I suspect any contract extension for Donald would be structured with a huge cap hit in 2019.
The upshot being, extensions can be set up out of future cap space. If they give him a contract in 2017 with a large guaranteed 2018 payout (salary, or roster bonus), then Donald gets his money and the Rams don't need a lot of 2017 space to do it.
