Just to kind of put a rest to this, we don't need the money from Boyd's contract by the way to make improvements, but if we did there are financial tools available to keep Boyd and get the money from his deal. We could for instance "extend" him by adding an extra year to his contract and converting his base salary to signing bonus then use a voidable year for the 3rd year. If we did this for example we could take his cap hit for next year down to as low as 3 or 4 Million.
The other option is we could flat out extend him an extra 2 years, because honestly he won't be that old when this contract ends, and just tie more of his backend salary to roster bonuses but use a similar signing bonus structure to save money next year.
