I don't believe the 2nd buyout window opens for a team elected arbitration

The one exception to this extra window is when the only arbitration case is team-elected, and that player earned more than $1,750,000 (in 2013 dollars - it's adjusted up based on league average salary) in the previous season. In that specific case, the window does not open.
Wouldn't be able to buyout Wideman.
