If he already signs for cheap, why bother going to a bottom feeder in first place? If he does that, his stats would hurt, and hence maybe nobody even wants to trade for him next deadline.
Your scenario would make sense if he signs NOT for cheap with a non-contender, and then hope that his stats won't collapse too much and contenders still want him at the deadline. That way he would collect the money and also a chance for glory.
