Jackson wont be delisted, so I dont know why you would continue to belt your head against a wall over that.
Edwards would be on a minimal wage. Mcguane would have taken a pay cut last year too. When you take into account you have to replace players with someone else on the list, the savings are not that great.
Im not real sure how it works now, i think that putting players onto the veterns list is one of the better ways to free up salary space.
Otherwise you start looking at losing your higher paid 2nd tier players, which I believe is what Hardwick has said happens when you bring in marquee players under free agency in other sports.
Imagine if we had payed some extraordinary amount for cloke like some people wanted. The discussion now wouldn't be about how satisfy all these players, but how many and who we will lose.
With so many young players on thge list, if we are to continue improving, these players, by way of performance, will start to demand bigger wages, so this problem should only get worse. Im actually a little bit flabbergasted and concerned that a middle of the road side who hasnt played finals in eons is having this issue.
