So that's about $6.4M of total cap savings for NJD ($4.9M of that in a single season) - which is worth about a 1st based on other cap transactions.
So then all of a sudden Mercer + 1st + Vanecek (cap dump) really doesn't seem like it's out of the realm of possible.

I thinkbthe deal must be bigger than this. Hanifin or tanev are probably going as well.
