I think you have to cut or trade as opposed to restructure. Watching them spread guarenteed money over future years makes me sick when they end up going 5-11. We've already made our first mistake of the offseason this year: restructuring Thrash.

Thrash had one year left on his deal and hes 33. Now we owe Thrash part of our 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 cap room, and all we got from it was 0.7 million in cap for this year. Just keep him under the current deal and cut someone else.

Ultmately, Thrash isn't going to lock up our cap in the future, but it's just a bad philosophy to keep perpetuating the problem like this.
