A couple of things, David's contract isn't actually what you described at all. David's deal is the new "en vogue" voided years many teams are running. It's a 5-year contract with 3 years that void immediately after the Super Bowl of his second year. Many of your deals were lower than average guaranteed money, this is an 80% guaranteed contract which is a ton on a multi-year deal. If your contention was that teams could overcome lower cap numbers by offering nearly fully guaranteed multi-year contracts then I'd more likely agree with you, that doesn't appear to be what you described though. My understanding of your first post examples was to offer multi-year below average to average market deals with 30% guaranteed and try to backload them.
