Facts, but there's a margin of error related to option bonus structure, which I am not certain of.

With Carriker, his 250,000 year 1 roster bonus is in there. With the others, it's just amortized signing bonus plus salary.

Mostly just worried about finding out if there's any workout bonuses in there.

Do you have a source for Garcon's number? Not trying to bust your balls I'm just curious cuz I've seen conflicting reports.

This story Redskins reach deals with two wide receivers, re-sign DE Adam Carriker - The Washington Post says "He accepted a five-year deal from the Redskins worth $42 million — $21.5 million of it guaranteed — according to people with knowledge of the situation."

If you assume a $21.5M signing bonus, his 2012 SB allocation would be $4.3M. Add in salary and/or roster bonus and his cap hit is over $5M at least.

This story Ex-Colts receiver Pierre Garcon agrees to 5-yr, $42.5M deal with Redskins - The Washington Post says "The contract includes $20.5 million in guaranteed money, with an $11 million signing bonus."

If you assume an $11M signing bonus, his 2012 SB allocation would be $2.2M. How do you get to $4.3M?

Never mind I answered my own question:

Free Agency Open Thread 3.0 With Salary Cap Update - Hogs Haven

"Pierre Garcon: Base salary: $2.1m, $11m signing bonus. The bonus prorated over 5 years is $2.2 million per year, meaning that absent any hidden fees, he only accounts for $4.3 million against the cap in 2012."

I've only ever seen the SB at $11.

Pierre Garcon - Washington Redskins - 2012 Player Profile - Rotoworld.com

$2.2 SB + $2.1 guaranteed base salary.

Always the possibility of a 50k workout bonus or a weekly roster bonus or something along those lines that wasn't reported, but in the absence of that, it's $4.3 million.
