Curious, could you find some sort of article or provide a link that details this (future roster bonus stays on books)?
I'm not necessarily saying you're wrong, but it's been my understanding that a team that trades for a player is relieved og incurring cap hits of any already paid money, namely the signing bonus. They then assume the rest of the contract that has yet to have been paid out.
I was under the assumption Watson's contract would like this for anyone who were take him:
2021 - 10.5 mil
2022 - 35 mil
2023 - 37 mil
2024 - 32 mil
2025 - 32 mil
Fwiw, those are all base salaries with the exemption of 2023 that features the 17 mil roster bonus.
