They signed Giordano to a 6 year deal at 33 that spooked most of us that has aged so well that people are talking about losing him on the final year as backed into a corner.
Like most of the cap management argument, teams with great players on first contracts won't have big issues at all.

Haha, yeah I remember when the Gio contract was signed, a few on here were so worried that his game would deteriorate and we'd have to package draft picks to get rid of the cap hit.
Now we are talking about paying draft picks to keep him for his last season.
