The Colts restructured Wentz's contract after they traded for him last year. In that case, they tweaked the roster bonus to float half of the bonus money to the following league year. It created about 5MM in cap space for last season.
However, I agree that Ballard is not quite as rigid in decision making as some people make him out to be.
