Because according to overthecap (and madden) it sure does, overthecap claims trading Hubbard now would create 8 million in dead money this year alone (and 2 millions if traded after June 1st) and some more dead money the following years. If that is indeed so, he's not my pick because that would make no sense.
that would be due to prorating his signing bonus over a few years or something to that effect. IE they paid him up front but its on the books over 2-3 years. But any roster bonuses due and salary not already paid would go to the new team with the trade.
