Patten had to save us money (although not alot), no question in my mind. The 3 million had to be a roster bonus. As for Wade it is a 3 year deal, but if he plays 80% of the snaps it gets voided after 2. This was done to spread the cap hit. There was also no signing bonus, the Skins just Guarnteed 4.25 million of the deal.

I see, thanks for the info on Wade.

Then that means CC's numbers are correct on Wade.

And you're probably right on Patten. I don't think the Skins make a move to cut Patten unless they're clearing cap space by doing so.

If that's the case, we're sitting here with about $6.5 million in space. So yeah, we can fit Bly in along with our rookies.
