I don't understand the reason to pretend. The NFL is not "Far Far Away" The poster posted a hypothetical situation and I responded. When Jason posted pretty much the same thing, I said that i thought that Holmes would take a pay cut this year, and I still do. But IMO he will not touch his guarantee portion of his contract. His contract is 11 mill of which 3.5 is not guaranteed, I think he will be ok with cutting this years salary down to 9 if they fully guarantee it. This will save the jets 2.25 mill this year and Holmes is guaranteed 1.25 more than he is now. I think he would further reduce his guarantee by an equal 2014 guarantee.
I am just being pragmatic. It seemed like the scenarios the OP presented and approved of only benefited the jets and Holmes was not even thrown a bone.
