Could someone explain what this latest deal is about?

Sooo why is Joey Galloway taking less money? or is he?
Just because the Cowboys want Johnson dudes taking a paycut?
Dallas is paying him the rest of his contract somehow, right?
Is that what this means?
The Cowboys will sign Galloway to the contract he's come to an agreement on with Tampa Bay - expected to be a one-year deal worth $2 million, with $500,000 in playing incentives he could earn next season - and then turn in the paper work for the trade, which might not officially be stamped until Monday. By doing so, the Cowboys will drop Galloway's $6.31 million base salary from this year's salary cap but will incur a $5.33 million charge for the acceleration of the final three years of his prorated signing bonus.

If Joey doesn't take the deal from TB (it's worth about $2M, could be worth $2.6m if he hits all his incentives) he will get cut from Dallas and become a FA (meaning he will not get his salary from Dallas this year anyways). With a deep WR draft he won't get much more than $2M from anyone.
