Year 1: 19 million signing + 8 salary
Year 2: 19 million signing + 9 salary
Year 3: 19 million signing + 10 salary
Year 4: 19 million signing + 16 salary
Year 5: 19 million signing +22 salary

Depending on how the cap increases and the market moves for DT, he could still be worth it in year four, but you never realize the last year of the deal.

The signing bonus isn't going to equal 95. The signing bonus plus years 1-3 is going to equal 95.

For those playing at home, that would look more like this:

year 1: 12M SB - 11M sal - 23M cap hit
year 2: 12M SB - 12M sal - 24M cap hit
year 3: 12M SB - 12M sal - 24M cap hit
year 4: 12M SB - one billion dollars (void) - 24M dead
year 5: 12M SB - taylor swift (void) - 12M dead

That's $60M signing bonus with $35M in guaranteed salary over the first 3 years, or 95M total paid with no cap hit over $24M in any year...

So, it's even more team friendly than my scenario.

At least it gets 9-5 playing in a Chiefs jersey
