There are hard limits on the percentage that salary can drop from year to year. The exact rules are pretty complicated, but the numbers you suggest are way outside the limit.
Something like 8m, 6m, 4.5m x 6 would probably be within the rules, but I don't have the exact formula in front of me right now.

That's not why they offer huge signing bonuses. The rule you mentioned counts signing bonuses as part of the salary.
Big signing bonuses are there chiefly to protect against buyouts. If a player is bought out, his signing bonus is still paid in full, whereas he receives only 2/3 or 1/3 of his base salary (depending on age).

Yep, anything now will be done at the Podium.
Still an ominous amount of chatter going on, I feel like half the league wants either 1 in the top 10 or 2 in the top 15 it’s crazy out here.

It would be tampering, technically, if Treliving said it in public. Dreger can say whatever he wants.

With CLB taking Lindstrom and having a 1/2 with him and Fantilli. I wonder about acquiring KJ and/or Sillinger.
