The meaning of massive restructure can take two forms. One is to extend a contract and put much of the cap expenditure into future years and the other is to lower the cap figures by offering more guaranteed money to the players. Either way, the cap can be manipulated for 2021 at the sacrifice of cap expenditure in future years. In short, the Rams CAN redo some contracts and still get enough cap relief to obtain help in free agency but doing so would mean mortgaging future cap flexibility.
Okay. So you're NOT saying "restructure" means the player gives back money.
A lot of people do say that and I couldn't tell by reading you.
The usual way the Rams do it btw is to turn salary or roster bonuses into prorated signing bonuses.
Anyway I agree with the red bit.
Thank you for responding, it might have been me but I couldn't tell which way you meant it.
