If you're right that it's an 8mil cap hit (what's yo source?) that might even be too much for the danny & his crack team of capologists to manoever around.
What about this scenario, CJ acts a fool during the season & the Bengals choose to deal him rather than keyshawn him. Wonder what the price would be then?

Source is the dead money associated with Johnsons current contract in Cincy. The remainder of his pro-rated signing bonus through 2011 is about 8 mill. And as soon as he is traded all 8 mil counts against the Bengals cap.

No not sweating it at all. What is there to sweat? Johnson would probably have better numbers in Cincinnati with a Pro Bowl QB in Palmer than he would with a QB who is changing offensive systems for, what, the 3rd time?
And who is still considered to be "developing"? Johnson's production will take a hit if traded to Washington.
