From the link I posted above:
3. Add voidable year to deal, restructure 2018 base
There's a problem there.
So what if Bryant's 2017 season isn't an anomaly, but rather he really is in decline? You can't really cut him in 2019 because it's a cap killer. And you'd be a moron to try to restructure him again.
Letting him play out 2018 on his current deal is the wise move. Because after this year, you can cut him for minimal pain if he declines further and if he doesn't, you have options - restructure again because you are confident he's not washed up, or just let him continue to play out his contract.
