Well this goes back to the 30% rule. In a normal world we could prorate all the roster bonuses four years out, and this would allow us to save like $15M off the cap.

However the 30% rule severly restricts our flexibility here (at least according to my understanding). That's why we only stand to save a couple hundred thousand by restructuring Brunell, instead of a couple million. And any other restrucures would have similar minimal effects. I'm surprised we're able to save anything on Portis' contract under the current rules.
