Only the signing bonus is prorated over the life of the contract.

The cap hit for any given year = base salary for THAT year + any current, applicable bonuses (roster, participation, etc.) + prorated portion of signing bonus.

EDIT: In other words, the chances of someone trading for Cassel is less than zero because he's hitting the two highest base salary years of his contract.

Should have traded him after his "pro bowl" season. Might have gotten a 4th, then. Now he has no trade value. At all.

Pro Bowl. Priceless.

How about HELL? I mean I'd rather trade his soul to the debil for the guarantee at taking a #1QB in the draft than my own. So I think Hell would be a good suiter.


If I could think of a loop hole to get out of it I'd do it myself, but for right now I'd like to keep my soul in hopes to go to heaven. However come towards the end of my time and we not win a Super Bowl maybe there would be more consideration. I'd sell my brothers soul to the debil for a Super Bowl but he is a raitard fan so he is already going to Hell.

OK that makes sense. I had forgotten about signing bonuses, and the article I read didn't mention one.

Cassel will go to a playoff team in need of a good backup (which he is). He'll end up with a SB ring before our team.

Same crap happened w/Jags and Brunell and Leftwich.

Trade for Tebow

New England... They still have confidence in Cassel.. Get Mallett strait up. Draft Wilson.... let the hillbillies battle it out for the starting spot.

The reerunian and King will trade thier Sean Cassidy-style, teen-love posters of Matt Cassel to have Matt come to thier houses and wash thier cars.

That would be awesome but, I think we'd have to give a draft pick along with Cassel.

This site says his most expensive years were 2009-2011. This year and next year are the cheapest while 2014 is a year with a higher cap hit.

He's still too expensive for a team not trading for a starter. I can't see any team in the league interested in that.
