Do roster bonuses count as much as signing bonuses? I thought I read somewhere that the Eagles signed TO and Kearse to deals tied to large roster bonuses so they don't get the cap hit when the player is cut..

Anyway, it's a huge mess.. What they should do is each say, there was obviously mis-communication. In order to move on together peacefully, let's agree to a 3.25 million dollar bonus and call it good... That way neither one comes away with bragging rights or ill feelings.. Of course since that's a logical solution it'll never work, but it's worth a try.
