Damn, talk about coming in with a full head of steam. Welcome to the forum.

However I think you should know that guys who restructure are just getting more guranteed money. And since Snyder is a willing spender he's more then happy to restructure contracts. Thats why everyone around the league doesn't restructure nearly as much as the Redskins. You can ask our cap experts on this for more clarification, but restructuring isn't exactly taking one for the team. It's more like taking a new car and a year or two on the town. Maybe even a condo. Or a night with the "Ultimate Focus" girl *Happy Face*

Springs was offered a pay-cut not a restructure and for some reason that might have contributed to a lot of us being confused as to what a restructure was.

As far as getting comp, well apparently we're getting a late third round pick due to the fact that Dockery was a starter for us and ended up landing a huge contract from Buffalo. Rocky on the other hand looks like he'll be back eventually. I'm just glad that he's not burning any bridges. However I kind of wish they'd pay him a little more hten the veteran minimum.

To me, in the big scheme of things $2 million guranteed isn't that much, then again I'm not looking at the cap every day.

Also, thanks to the cap guys for helping me look like I know what I'm talking about. :thumb:

Welcome to the board. Please try to avoid capitalizing the first letter of every word. You will find that far more people will read and respond to your posts if they are easy to read.

As to the substance of your post, we will not be awarded any compensatory draft picks for the loss of Sean Taylor. Compensatory draft picks are based on losses to free agency, not illness, injury, death, etc.

Are we getting any cap relief for Sean's salary? IMO sudden death of a player should let us off the hook for his remaining salary. Bad enough we had to play that game against Buffalo before he was even buried. It would be the least the league could do for us. I know there was previous discussion about this in a another thread regarding Darrent Williams, but I don't remember the answer and I'm too lazy to search around right now.
