Are you mathematically challenged? The difference between $2.1 million (savings if cut) and $3.5 million (savings under my restructure scenario) is big. $1.4 million to be exact.
$3.5 million is 67% more than $2.1 million. About the same? Wha??
You can do a lot with $1.4 million. You can fit the first year of a 2nd round pick's contract in that amount of space.
