First of all, veteran players like Kenny Holmes CANNOT be claimed on waivers like a couple of posters have suggested. Only players with less than 4 yrs NFL experience can be claimed. With that being said, if the Bills were to surprise us by trading for DE Holmes as others have suggested, his contract is as follows:
2002: $600,000
2003: $3.25 million
2004: $3.35 million
2005: $3.75 million
NY Giants' would be responsible for ALL signing bonus amortization remaining, thus.......trade highly unlikely due to the increased cap hit by accelerating signing bonus into the League Year of the trade.
A more likely scenario is that Holmes is released outright thus generating cap savings for the Giants' and making him a FA free to sign with any team of his choosing.
