Team options cannot declined until pre-season. You can still cut him now and take a multi year cap hit if his salary exceeds min, or you can wait to decline him then cut him after preseason. See thread in Draft Central from last season (wig had to correct me when i opened it too early).

Unless I am mistaken, cutting a player automatically declines all remaining team option years. But probably a good idea to doublecheck.

Use this as the test. I was curious myself. Cap hit won't be bad if it doesn't work in my favor.
