If we keep Breeland then we have all our starters back other than Rangland? Hell on both sides really and we gain more as some become available coming back from injuries like Wylie, Rankins, Speaks etc. Going to be a good draft to get bpa and develop a few too. We also are looking at those comp picks the following year and can really keep it going.

Well at least we wont have to worry about drafting a project of a QB this year.

No one is going to pay him 15 to 16 mil per season. He cant stay healthy enough for a full one even when with us. He either takes a cut or gets released and joins a crappy team that if he can get good money, they would have the cap to pay him. Even then i cant see anything above 12 at the most.

Kurt Warner. He won both i believe in his first year playing. I went to school with him, great guy.

And if they do this he becomes and UFA and goes into the comp pool equation. Would be an end of 3rd round comp pick at best.

In the 54-year history of the Super Bowl, only a dozen teams have appeared in consecutive Super Bowls. Of those teams, only seven repeated as a Super Bowl champion, with the 2003-04 Patriots serving as the most recent back-to-back winner. How did the losing team do the next year? Only eight teams in NFL history -- the 1971 Cowboys, '72 Dolphins, the '73 Vikings, the '87 Broncos, the 1991-93 Bills and the 2018 Patriots -- have returned to the Super Bowl the year after losing the Big Game. And out of those teams, only the '71 Cowboys, '72 Dolphins and '18 Patriots were able to hoist the Lombardi Trophy a year after being on the short end of the Super Bowl scoreboard.

Franchise or Transition Tag – any player who receives the Franchise or Transition Tag (other than the Exclusive Franchise Tag) is still technically a Free Agent, but is restricted by the Tag. A player under the Tag does count against the Salary Cap, at the amount of the Franchise or Transition Tag tender amount.

Colts still had plenty of cap space too? Maybe they are vying for a big trade....

So we hit CB and IOL Now to go get LB and draft that great RB or WR in the first lol. Actually can see us going after the same positions we still have been after just bpa and TE/WR in the mix now.

They might see something we dont in him. No one thought Ward would be anything special or even butker etc. Still young and we can develop plus gives us depth for the position and ST if needed. Need to get a good OL starter or coverage LB before the draft. Would help us go after other needs and bpa.

Chiefs sign CB Hamilton

Could still cut others too like LDT, Reiter etc to go after a guy, sign him and then make the cut.

Be great if we can fill one in FA. To bad we did not get Peat.

RB Gordon to Broncos, 2 years 16 milllion. TE Ebron to Steelers, 2 years 12 million.

That was quick. He wanted to go home I bet. He already had made 34 million the last 2 years and was getting 7 million this year too. I bet he gave a nice discount.

Between the 2 i think pennel is the one to keep. We better at least keep him. PM can do things with an average line still and we can draft too plus what we have coming back from injuries etc. They do need to really get the line going now. PM cant go down but Wis was a stop gap and not long term. We need to get that long term guy.

Wis is gone. 2 year deal to the Steelers. Another comp pick in the equation. https://nfltraderumors.co/steelers-signing-veteran-ol-stefen-wisniewski-to-two-year-deal/

The slow playing works. We will have cuts like this made where a player may want to come to us like they did for the pats. A chance to win and improve your stock is always a great motivator.

He plays half a season so it is like 14 million for him

Get Carr now for us?

He's not a chief = they over paid

See who they cant sign and let go? Have to be smart about it and stay ahead. They also had 3 or more contracts come up at once too for their big 3. They are really up against the wall for future resignings of their own or FA. They lost Quinn, Byron Jones, Cobb, Sua Filo, Witten etc and still have close to 20 other FAs too. Sure they will sign some but to manage the cap they have so far and have so much leaving or to sign to retain is way above where I would want to be. Almost half their team or players were due for a contract.

https://arrowheadaddict.com/2020/03/18/chiefs-squeeze-salary-cap-frank-clarks-help/amp/?__twitter_impression=true salary cap with Frank Clark’s help by Matt Conner5m ago The Kansas City Chiefs were able to squeeze under the new league year’s salary cap threshold with help from Frank Clark’s contract and Cam Erving’s release. The Kansas City Chiefs had until Wednesday afternoon at 3:00 p.m. C.T. to squeeze under the salary cap threshold for the 2020 league year in the NFL. Thanks to some contractual maneuvering with star pass rusher Frank Clark and the decision to move on from offensive lineman Cam Erving, the Chiefs were able to do just that. Terez Paylor of Yahoo! Sports first had the news: It’s interesting to see that the Chiefs could make it under the cap of $198.2 million without having to answer any questions as of yet on wide receiver Sammy Watkins or defensive tackle Chris Jones. Watkins has the single biggest cap hit of any wide receiver in the league and has been rumored to be released, traded, or restructured for months. Meanwhile, Jones has wanted a long-term deal for quite some time and it’s hard to tell exactly what the Chiefs will choose to do in that instance. Instead, the Chiefs were able to open up some room thanks to their decision to not exercise a team option on Cameron Erving’s contract. The versatile offensive lineman will instead find a new home in free agency and he should have no problem finding work even as a backup given his ability to play tackle or guard. Erving’s option was for $3.25 million for K.C. As for Frank Clark, there are no details on the numbers involved as of press time, but restructuring part of his base salary into a signing bonus means the Chiefs get short-term cap relief in 2020 while spreading out that same amount of money over the remaining years of the deal. Given Clark initially signed a five-year deal, then it means his final three seasons in K.C. will be even more expensive. For now, at least, the Chiefs have the room they need.

The Chiefs have converted some of Frank Clark’s salary to a signing bonus, per a source. That, plus the release of Cam Erving, means they will be under the cap today. Frank Clark converting $5 million (as first reported by @MikeGarafolo) of 2020 base salary into signing bonus would drop cap number from $22.7 million to $18.95 million. Not a ton of additional space but enough to get Chiefs safely under the cap limit starting new league year. Different sources on tweets

Nice. Now work on restructuring a few more like Watkins and make the cuts of LDT, Reiter etc and go get upgrades.
