With no immediate use for the savings, the practical choice would be to eat as much of that money as possible this season, since doing so won't trigger any tax payment. Even if you know you're going to S/W year two, getting as much as possible off the books right away would only improve matters.
Do you concur, or am I missing something?
To expand on your thought. I agree with a waive in year1 to clear as much off as possible. My question is whether, given the cap room, you could accelerate some of the year2 salary into year 1 making the future hit less. The player gets paid either way.
