Am I right in saying that if he was cut during the uncapped year we'd be clear so to speak (and by that Snyder would payout his entire SB during that year but it would clear off the books and not cost against the cap in future years)?

If that's the case, cut Randle El, Randy Thomas, Smoot, Collins, Betts and Portis.

Do we have to pay Samuels if he retires?

More likely than not we will enter the 2010 season as an un-capped year. It is also likely there won't ever be a salry capp again in the future, so in Portis's case it's six in one hand and a half dozen in the other. His contract has no capp ramifications because there won't be one.
