Are all incentives counted towards the next year's cap or are some pre-allocated from this year? Those likely to be obtained i believe are this year. sith13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are all incentives counted towards the next year's cap or are some pre-allocated from this year? It entirely depends on how they're structured. Could be bonuses based on starts, i.e. 250k per start. If the bonuses are metric based, then if they reached those metrics during the year prior they count on current years cap (aka LTBE aka likely to be earned incentives). If they didn't reach the metrics in the prior year they are NLTBE aka Not LTBE and count towards the next year's cap only if they are earned. For example, if I have a bonus for starting 7 games but started 6 games last year they are NLTBE. If I hit 7 starts and earn the bonus it counts towards the following years cap. If i start 6 games again the bonus just goes away. sith13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkuenn 3,597 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Another thing to consider, other than he was hurt, is the fact Brady was not mobule back there. Mahomrles will bide him plenty of time and throws quickly if needed. He made Brown better, i think he will do the same for this guy too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping him at RT makes sense as that is where he plays best and is one of the best. If he is the LT then Smith would be a back up which would be one expensive back up. I'm not that quick to give Smith the starting LT job. He's given up sacks and has quite a few holding penalties so he has to earn the job. With Taylor, Niang, Morris, and Prince, assuming Kinnard is moved to interior line, there will be competition. Taylor is a sure starter. The other three will have to sort it out in TC.

DieHard 2,061 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 I love it. Can’t have too many OTs. If he doesn’t win the job he will be a great back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Warpaint 3,234 Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 it baffles me how many still continue to doubt Veach because he did not sign or trade for a High Priced player like DHOP, yet he still keeps turning over this roster on a yearly basis.

Palangi 788 Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 I think he is being brought in to be depth and push Taylor at LT. Having a veteran back up can help Taylor in the transition LT- Taylor, Smith LG- Thuney, Kinnard C- Humphrey, Allegretti RG- Smith, Kinnard/Allegretti RT- Niang/Morris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iluvhouse24 1,808 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 4 million dollar base. Up to 9 million w incentives according to Nate Taylor. With us being up against it cap wise, that tells me he is starting. That doesn't seem like a ton of money until you look at the Chiefs cap table. Then you realize he's the 10th highest paid player on the team. I honestly think Wanya may have been brought in here to be our LT of the future. He played more left than right in college and by all accounts is a very good athlete. I think they watched Wylie all year and counted their lucky stars he didn't somehow get our QB hurt or lose us a big game. Then they said to themselves " that's never fucking happening again." And then paid Taylor. oldtimer, ChiefThunder and mex 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetlord 10,208 Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 If Smith is already penciled in at LT, we had better hope he's back to 2020/21 form or we'll be wishing OBJ was back. At least with Taylor at RT, only one tackle will need TE help every play. Guess that's a step up. So what do Niang and Morris do besides warm the bench?

Niang becomes the backup swing tackle and Morris gets a year to adjust to the NFL. Honestly, that doesn't sound too bad to me. oldtimer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he has always been penalty prone and just above average as a tackle. i hope there is still competition and that the best is chosen. Not just give out to the veteran. but in Andy I will trust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
