    Winfield did not get a signing bonus

    The Minnesota Vikings have made good use of that $33 million in cap room.

    According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Winfield's $10.8 million in bonus money wasn't a signing bonus but a roster bonus

    It has the "quitting football" downside but this is a very smart move by the Vikings

      Sounds like it's great for Winfield, too. No wonder he jilted the Nyets.

        Wow...if he quits after this year it is like hitting the lottery.

          Great move- 12.5 of the 35 Millon is paid now, with 22.5 Million over the remaining 5 years- or about 4.5 Mill per year- very affordable

            ...and the Vikes still had 21 million in cap space to play with to sign Keinsausser, Marcus Robinson, and others.

              advantage of being 33 mil under.
