Webb ...restructure deal?
(KFFL)The Baltimore Ravens could ask CB Lardarius Webb to restructure his contract this offseason because he is scheduled to make $7.5 million next season and will count $10.5 million against the salary cap.
Any truth to this report?

Won't this put us in "Cap Hell" a la the Steelers, Saints, Cowboys, etc? Or are we already there with Rice, Suggs and Ngata's bloated contracts?

I don't think it's a report, but rather a speculation, much like me saying they may cut Suggs to save cap. Merely stating one option

Re: Webb ...restructure deal?
If the Ravens are going to restructure a contract, it would make most sense that it is Webb's.
As I understand restructuring a bonus is paid up front which is then spread out over the life of the contract. The player gets their money in pocket. If they're cut or injured, it's theirs.
The cap hit moves into other years though.
IMO what the Steelers, Saints and Cowboys did was do this with players where they were too close to the end of their career or at least not producing at the value of their contract. With Rice, Suggs and Ngata there are questions about how many more productive years they have.. or if they have any.. that justify their contract.
I don't get that sense with Webb. He's got a few years in him.

Re: Webb ...restructure deal?
I may not be totally correct on the numbers, but I saw on twitter that Webb could be restructured to save $5m against this year's cap but it would add on $1.7m to each year left on his contract from 2015 on. I don't think that's a bad option at all if those are the right numbers.

You guys are too much. What makes you think that we're in win now mode to the point that we should be kicking the can the road to screw ourselves over later?
