Good riddance.
The 1.5 will help this year at the expense of next year. Similar to Boldin's 2nd year cap hit. The 1.5 could be used to pay for Dawson or Whitner but the Niners already have cap space to fill in all of those spots you mentioned. 1.5 isn't going to move the needle that much in signing guys.
In any case I see it as a pre-June 1st move and just wipe away everything on Roger's contract this year. Niners have more then enough wiggle room to sign who they need to sign and work on extensions.

I would agree if we could not roll money over to next year. If we end up with 2 million under the cap this year, not counting Rogers, we'll be happy we designated the money later in 2015, because otherwise, we'd have only a half million left for emergencies. 2 million is only illustrative, if we need 4 million saved to feel safe, than 4 million, etc.
As far as wiggle room, I'd rather use that wiggle room for whomever we extend to save money for later if we use this year's. This would be after we've done all the major work.
Post June 1st cut. I figured they would do this.
