I agree - TO will not hit the street tomorrow. Trade or Eagles retain his rights to help foster a trade down the line.
FYI - Owens 2006 Salary is only $770K Which is very cap friendly.
Nors, if you think the Eagles are paying T.O. $5 million tomorrow, you have lost touch with reality and completely forgotten about the disaster the Eagles dealt with and endured the past season. That organization despises T.O.
Any team in this deal is going to want to restructure that contract.
Could they trade him? Sure they could, but another team is going to want some protection for them in that contract after last year's fiasco.
This isn't a question of how cap-friendly the current deal is.
To simply accept his current contract with no changes in the language or bonus structure would be
MALFEASANCE on the part of a G.M.
