I am in the midst of a new league draft. (47). my power went out and I accidentally drafted more WR than I wanted at the time. I traded away one of them for a later draft pick. Now I show as having dead cap for next year. Wouldn't the acquiring team assume the salary/bonus? Will my extra pick utilize the cap money?
You will always assume the bonus portion of any contract you sign a player to. If you trade or release a player you take a dead cap hit for the current season for their bonus, and you pay the rest of the bonus for future seasons the next season. The bonus portion of the contract is guaranteed.
