At the end of the day, Feaster will
never convince the owners to buyout Wideman @ 17.5M (assuming the 67% buyout). You can not pay someone 17.5M for literally nothing at all.
The league knew in the summer that we would see a correction in cap $$... they were willing to cancel a season to get it. Wideman isn't going anywhere, it won't even be a consideration.
That is the last I will say on it.
