3 years at $1m please.
If I move guys to IR does that free up a roster spot or are they still included in the 30?
First, to get a 3 year deal, you will need to increase the contract to $1.1m.
Is this what you’d like to do? — $1.1m (2020)
Second, moving a player to the DL frees up a roster space, but the contract of that player is still part of your salary cap obligation. When he is no longer on the DL, you would need to activate him and drop a player or drop him altogether.
