I'd love to say that your smack has gotten worse since the Ravens began shitting the bed, but it hasn't. I guess we have found out what rock bottom here looks like.

Look at the bright side, Flacco will be paid well in 2016 with the 28 million cap hit. Wink

At least Joe will be laughing all the way to the bank.

LOL..>You think some other team will pick up that contract?

**Griever** · 10-22-2015, 03:58 PM

the browns, chiefs, detroit, and the redskins could use a below average qb

How would the cap hits work on such a trade? Wouldn't it work where the Ravens still take an accelerated cap hit of the bonus money they already paid while the new team takes on the rest under their cap?

Well any gaurenteed money is generally paid up front but then budgeted on the payroll over the corse the the contract so thats all ravens money.. but in a trade the new team would take on whatever salary for the years remaining and with a backloaded contract those years are very expensive. I dont know if there are bonuses each of those years etc that might have to be paid.

but a team could restructure the contract turning salary toa signing bonus but for his production and price tag a trade does seem far out.

You guys are confusing cap with salary.

How?

I think we have it more or less correct. All bonus monies already paid out to Flacco would go to the Ravens cap and would accelerate as he would be no longer on the roster. The new team would have to absorb the salary still to be paid and any bonuses still to be paid.

I believe it's the REMAINING bonus $ not $ already paid.

People were suggesting that the $28m would what another team has to take on when it is the cap hit for the Ravens. His salary would be $18m. Not sure if the $4m option bonus would apply.

Thanks.

I was thinking it is more like what we had happen when the Bucs signed Michael Johnson as a free agent than cut him after one season and we signed him back again. MJ is making big bucks this season but most of them are paid by the Bucs and on their cap.
