Not really.
The Kolb contract was backloaded and had an escape clause.
The Cardinals stupidly failed to exercise it, but the contract itself gave them far more wiggle room.
The Cassel contract, OTOH, being a frontloaded monstrosity that had its roster bonus in an awkward 'in-between' spot, is just an absolute abortion of a contract. It was a trainwreck from the second it was signed.
Very few of us could ever make a decision that costs our boss anywhere near the money that Scott Pioli made with that Cassel deal and still keep his job. Yet there he sits, still evidently beyond all reproach.
