Development squad cyberbuck and contract year caps will not count against a team's regular cap unless a player is activated to the active roster.
Only drafted rookies are eligible to be placed on the DS. Once a player is activated by a team he can NEVER again appear on that teams’ developmental squad. However, a player may be traded to another team who could place the player on their DS as long as he still had DS eligibility as outlined above.

At first glance, that appears to be a good fix.
