Lions could have saved more by trading KVB when a sucker team was willing to pay us for the removal of a massive liability. I don’t see them as making cap improvements, but rather racking up massive dollars every year of blown opportunities. That’s not a savings, that’s a running increase of debt and obligation and risk to lose games in the future. We need to reposition away from these negatives and start creating some positives.

KVB , represented as a greatly depreciated asset along an accepted benefit vs. cost spectrum, exhibited lower anticipated productivity and diminished future performance to the corporation. Thus fully embodying an unfavorable debt to equity ratio, vis-à-vis on field contributions, KVB offered minimal trade value and therefore contractual termination was the most rational course of action. Sunk costs in the form of contractual salary obligations currently are, and have been, analyzed to the greatest extent possible as evidenced by the contract reformulations of Messrs. Burleson and Raiola.

Further analyses within a benefit vs. cost framework will undoubtedly exhibit additional opportunities in the form of contractual modifications and terminations which are anticipated to be implemented on a posthaste basis thereby affording a competitive ability to fully participate in the imminent free agent bidding process to the ultimate advantage of the enterprise.
