That could potentially work, but then you have the situation with the salary cap. Do you have a separate "specialist salary cap"? Is there a set amount that can be used towards THAT salary cap or can you just pay them whatever you want? A lot of potential issues there and obviously all those things would need to be negotiated into the next CBA. Which may be possible long term, but a more immediate fix (since that 18th game is likely coming before a new CBA) is just to expand the rosters to 55.
