Saves Bears about 2.5 million in cap this year.

Goldman was due to earn a $3 million roster bonus on March 15 and the team has converted it into a signing bonus. Goldman gets the same money and the Bears gain $2.25 million in cap space by spreading the cap hit out over the three years left on Goldman’s contract. Goldman is also set to earn a $2.25 million salary in the first year of the four-year extension he signed in 2018.

When we do this, does this have any long term cap ramifications?

$1M in dead money annually over the next three years, I believe.

A good move. I'd really like to see us extend and rework Trevathan next.

At trevathons age I think they might just let him play out his deal then try to resign cheaply.
