We’re talking about taxpayer vs over the cap. I know there have been some avenues that have been stymied by fgump due to the rules regarding trades ehile over the cap this offseason. 


I also know that if the taxpayer MLE is used the apron is a hardcap so there is no taking on extra salary in trade. Limitations to flexibility as I was talking about.

The taxpayer limitations are affecting all of the contenders.  They still found it necessary to go there.

I don't think tax MLE will trigger hardcap.  I think the full MLE will (as well as the BAE and an S&T).  I believe you can do 25% extra salary in a trade (125% rule) even if you are a taxpayer.  There are some limitations, but the biggest one is the owner's wallet.
