New England lost both of their starting CBs in Free Agency last year. Revis & the guy that left to go to the Broncos.
The Patriots traded their olinemen to the Bucs that WOULDN'T take a pay cut.
Brock Osweiler hasn't signed with the Broncos.
Peyton Manning hasn't offered to take a pay cut; he re-structured his contract last year and earned every penny back by winning the Super Bowl.
Who has taken a discount on these teams?
Tom Brady has continuously taken less money so the team could sign other players. (for less money than they would want from other teams)
In a way it's cheating the cap.
..and then the other examples Shake mentioned. There's probably few more but i'm sick today and don't feel like putting in the effort.
