How are they better off making a deal if they prefer a draft pick over the cash?
They can release him with the June 1st cut which would save them 8 million dollars or cut him without it and only save a million. If they cut him right now with the June first destination and save 8 million they would still have to wait until June first to see the savings. The savings would not be immediate like it would be if they straight up cut him or trade him.
However if they want to save 8 mil and trade him they can't use June first destination at anytime with a trade like they can do with a cut. They would have to wait until June first to do the trade. Either way the savings wouldn't apply until june.
To shorten up they could trade him after June first and save themselves 8 mil in cap space(after June first) + get compensation, or cut him with June first destination now and save 8 mil(again after June first), or trade him now get compensation but only save a million against the cap(which would be immediate), or cut him now and only save a million against the cap(which would be immediate).
