What is the reason that the Broncos are going to hold on to Brian Greise until June 1st cuts? They have convinced themselves that they will not get a team to give them a 1st round pick and Shanahan was quoted yesterday saying he will be cut, June 1st.
Is there a NFL policy-reasoning-salary cap thing that causes them to wait?

It lessens the cap blow if he is cut after june 1st....its halved
Post June 1st, the cap hit is spread over 2 years not 1
Under league policy, if Denver has given Griese permission to talk to other teams about a trade, is it OK for a team to negotiate and secure an early commitment from Griese to play for that club come June 1? Or do they have to wait?
Also - How about this? TJ for Griese right now - today. But Denver picks up part of the cap hit.
