The Facts:
Turns out the Rams quietly did yet another contract renegotiation with Faulk last July. The revised deal lowered his base salary to $1 million (from $2 million) in '06; to $820,000 (from $2.6 million) in '07; and to $830,000 (from $3.2 million) in '08.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As part of the latest renegotiation, Faulk also is due a $225,000 roster bonus at the end of next week. Although the Rams expect Faulk to retire, it's possible they will still pay out that bonus. Despite the altered base salaries, the Rams remain on the hook for about a $4 million cap hit once Faulk retires — in the form of unamortized signing bonus money from past renegotiations. As noted previously, the Rams are ready to move on without the veteran halfback.
