Well, salary floor. I understand what you are saying though, but cutting costs can only be done to a certain degree with the million dollar players on the field.
The realities of revenue sharing means that the Redskins have to cut costs even if they don't see a downturn in revenue, simply because they'll owe more to other franchises who are being more directly affected.
