Only the siging is paid for up front they are all differnet but all combined into the total dolar value of the contract.
So someone can sign a 50 mil dollar contract but only make 833K a year for 6 years, but have a signing bonus of 10 mil, a roster bonus every year afte the first year of 7 mil (7x5=35). The 10 mil is spread over the life of the contract although he gets it up front. So his annual cost is 1.8m for the signing, 5m for the roster and 833k for salary totals 7,133K.
If he were to get released after one year before the roster bonus he would get the 10mil up front, and 833K. The club would then eat the rest of the prorated signing bonus the next year unless he was relaeased after 1Jun then it would be half of the total left this year, half next year.
If the club is smart they will incorp incentives instead of roster bonuses. 2 mil for being the starter in the pro bowl, 1 as an alt, 1 mil for gaining 1000 yards, 2mil for 1500 and 3 mil for 2000. they all infalate the ego of the player, he can still say he signed 60 mil contract, but really only be getting 833k a year cause he does not make the incentives.Comment

This is a good explanation of how the cap works. My post was long enough without going into how the acceleration of the signing bonus gets divided into year 1 and year 2 if the player is cut after June 1.Originally posted by Jrhampton
That has very different cap ramifications of course.
But, the figures you cite don't include the entire compensation, so, they're not the whole picture. For instance, Trevor's figure of $5,350,000 wouldn't include the pro-rated portion of any signing or roster bonus from previous years -- because he's already been paid that money in previous year, but those amounts would still count against the Broncos cap total.
So, the money to the player this year doesn't reflect the total cap impact -- which is all we Broncos fans really care about anyway. Who cares what amount Trevor is taking home? We only care about the total cap figure!
Ex: If Trevor signed a 5 year deal in 2001 with a $10 million signing bonus, then the pro-rated amount of that bonus would be $2 million in 2006 and that amount would be added to the Broncos cap figure. But, it wouldn't show up as player compensation for 2005.
