He will play one more year and then we will cut him. I don’t want that cap hit both this year and next. We already did that with Berry and are on the hook for like 7-8 million on Berrys deal. Hitchens is the lone black mark on Veachs record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitchens is the lone black mark on Veachs record. Looks like he has a pretty hefty dead cap next year as well at 8 millionish. If we take the hit of 6 mil dead cap 2 years in a row we may be better off, not sure. i dont 100% trust the online contracts either so its tough to say for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

History does not favor their approach to building a powerhouse. They might be way under the 90% spending thing with that crap of a team for years. With so many picks to build via the draft I think they might be safe to spend a few bucks in FA to get to somewhere around the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...of course as well as the son Cal McNair being active CEO.

Hopefully we can salvage a late pick for him or at least a washing machine for him. I wonder if the goal is keeping Robinson around after he tests the free market for a week or so as the cheaper version of Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen 1,010,220 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Per @AdamSchefter, the Jacksonville Jaguars are trading QB Nick Foles to Chicago for the Bears' compensatory 4th round pick. Nick Foles has won 4 playoff games as a starter since 2017.
