Keep in mind that there is a huge difference between Guaranteed and Guaranteed at Signing. For example, if there's a $10 mil roster bonus in year 2, that's technically considered "Guaranteed Money", but if the team cuts him before that, he doesn't see that money. Lots of folks get confused on that.
