Very good use of cap space here. Very smart . Basically makes it a one year deal. Pays DeBo money he might not have gotten other wise so he'll be happy. Very smart piece of gm cap magic.

It was already a one year deal, he is in the final year of his 3-year contract extension with the 49ers.

This deal didn't do anything for the cap, if anything, it might have bumped his cap number if the added incentives are likely to be earned.

But in the NFL dead money can follow the contract after the player leaves. Doing this negates the 12 something million in dead cap that could have followed in 2026.

Exactly.

There is no dead money when the contract expires.

Dead money covers the prorated portion of the signing bonus remaining on the contract.

All guaranteeing the deal is provide Samuel’s assurances that he will see the entirety of his non-guarantee 2025 salary.

There are no savings or any kind of salary cap implications that have been averted with the restructuring.

I don't have the slightest clue how NFL contracts work, but it appears that this is a straight up 1 year deal with no BS of "well if he's not on the team next season, he counts as $6 million dead cap." Like it's a one year deal, if it works out, he'll get extended, if not there's no financial hit to the team.

From multiple reports Deebo would have counted for over 12m in dead cap next year even if he wasn't on the roster.

Basically they just rolled it all into this year. Smart.

So contracts in the NFL are far more complicated than the NBA. They way these teams can sign these guys even though their cap is a mess is because they load it in signing bonuses and non guarantees and kick the cap number down the road. Hence why DeBo came with a dead cap number once his contract is up. But again unlike in the NBA there are many ways to maneuver that dead cap and get it off your books some times.

Yep, surprising overpay and I'm not even sure who they were bidding against. Can he give them more coming off an injury than a guy like Amari Cooper could at a cheaper price?
