If I had to bet I'd say there's nothing in the works right now. And I think it's unlikely that they make a big enough move that we look back at this say 'that's why they made all that cap space.' I could be wrong. I think the reason they did this is because Buckner's contract was the most likely target to be reworked to create cap space, and once they do it, they can't restructure for 12 months. So if you have one shot at it, just maximize the opportunity. Just in case something comes up later. That way if an opportunity presents itself later on, you don't have to consider backloading someone else's contract, which is something the team already doesn't like doing. And in general, while this kind of backloading shouldn't be considered a go-to cap management technique, doing this with one or two foundational players here and there isn't a big problem. It's when you start stacking up these backloaded contracts, especially for less reliable players, that you create problems in the future.

Why do it now? That's the confusion.

I think it makes sense to draft a corner to try and counteract the trend of opening up the wide receivers more with the rule changes. -
Playing devil's advocate for a moment. Wouldn't that make it that much more important, to have top end talent at the position? Not that it's guaranteed to have top end talent with a 1st round CB, or any other position, or round? I hear you though, just playing devil's advocate.
