People are getting too wrapped up in the cap charge for this year. If Whit gets cut after this year, between his cap hit this year and the acceleration of bonus money puts his total cap charge for one year of play over $15 million. If he gets cut after year two, it's $22.8 mill over 2 years. That's why most former FO people have said this is a bad deal.
We could have easily franchise tagged him which would have bee for 1 year.
