Spotrac.com says we have
89 players on current roster with
$8,288,534 of cap space. Overthecap.com also says we have 89 players on current roster with
$7,872,709 of cap space. Chiefs usually like to keep a few million for needed roster additions during the season.
There are a few positions that might be improved, but cap space is going to limit what we do unless we redo a contract or two.
I think the Chiefs will go into the preseason with what we have, but Brett will watch other teams rosters and maybe pick up a couple of players with a low cost trade or signing a veteran at a club friendly deal.
Chiefs have -
(18) CB/DB/S - Tyrann Mathieu, Armani Watts, Juan Thornhill, Daniel Sorensen, Rodney Clemons, Zayne Anderson, Devon Key, Will Parks, Charvarius Ward, Rashad Fenton, L’Jarius Sneed, Thakarius Bopete Keyes, Deandre Baker, Mike Hughes, Chris Lammons, Marlon Character, Dicaprio Bootle, and Manny Patterson.

(14) WR - Tyreek Hill, Mecole Hardman, Byron Pringle, Demarcus Robinson, Cornell Powell, Antonio Callaway, Chad Williams, Marcus Kemp, Gehrig Dieter, Jody Fortson, Maurice Ffrench, Daurice Fountain, Chris Finke, and Dalton Schoen.
(14) DL - Frank Clark, Chris Jones, Jurran Reed, Derrick Nnadi, Khalen Saunders, Michael Danna, Tershawn Wharton, Taco Charlton, Joshua Kaindoh, Tim Ward, Austin Edwards, Demone Harris, Tyler Clark, and Malik Herring.

Bashaud Breeland's contract details with the Vikings are now on overthecap.com.
$1,075,000 Base, $1,000,000 Pro Rated Bonus, $925,000 per game roster bonus, $1,075,000 guaranteed, $2,727,944 cap. So actually less that what the Chiefs paid last year at $3M with a $2.5M guaranteed.
Breeland's Viking contract was earlier reported to be a $4M contract.
Bashaud has said several times he wanted to play in KC.
It would seem that KC was ready to move on.
