Is this trade even possible.
Some guy said we cannot sign and trade AV in a package deal after June 30th because he is an unrestricted FA? And he would have to pick up his option for his contract for the trade to work?
We could get around the draft by trading them our pick for money and then sending money back in the trade.
Here's how the trade cannot work though:
Cleveland sends:
6.9 Million for Andy (non-BYC- this makes his salary larger than anything else possible unless he signed for over $11.4 mil for the first year)
4.95 Million for Sasha
736,420 For Darnell
855,189 for Kinsey
$736,420 for Jawad
Total= 14.178029 mil
Most we can take back= 17.82253625 mil
Mil sends:
17.040 mil for Redd
AS you can see.. signing CV for anything over $783,000 for the first year wouldn't make this trade possible.
We would have a deal around Ben, or perhaps add Boobie to the deal, for this to work.
Let's add Boobie:
6.9 Million for Andy (non-BYC- this makes his salary larger than anything else possible unless he signed for over $11.4 mil for the first year)
4.95 Million for Sasha
4.0885 mil for Boobie
736,420 For Darnell
855,189 for Kinsey
$736,420 for Jawad
Total= 18.266529 mil
Most we can take back= 22.93316125 mil
Mil sends:
17.040 mil for Redd
5.89316125 for CV (That is the most we can take back)
(BTW, Anything over 4.13766 for CV puts him as BYC)
We would really be thin and DJ doesn't seem like he is going to be traded (though I'm sure that we would include him in a deal like this) with how W&G seems to talk about him being in the rotation for next year.
Hope this helps.
