Front loading contracts when trying to win a SB is counterintuitive and a waste of a SB window. Nobody worth a damn front loads contracts as it's just a bad way to build a more talented team.
Your plan would mean getting rid of a guy, getting absolutely nothing in return for him, and then adding zero talent with the extra space. If you're not going to get more picks or more space to add more players, why would you ever make another team better and your team worse?
It would make sense to front load a couple of mid tier extensions (Bell, Pratt) unless someone shakes loose they can't live without in post draft cuts. No reason to waste cap space.
