They would have to trade Ed Oliver to get cap space this year...outside of restructuring what few contracts they have left that could be. It would only fuck their cap next year even more though. [Reply]

So they would take their defense that looked suspect last year, got worse this offseason and then make it even worse to be fucked harder next year? That just..you're talking about giving yourself at best maybe the 3rd-5th best odds to win the SB to be completely screwed for 3 years. [Reply]

And didnt they already move Miller and Allen money just to get under the cap this year?

You mean like how KC had only had change found int he couch for cap space and then signed PM and CJ to large contracts?
Salary cap is a joke and even more of a joke for the fans to worry about it. It isn't our money. [Reply]

Teams do a lot of dumb shit when it comes to keeping talent away from teams like the Chiefs. [Reply]

But theirs is like that after they have ALREADY moved money around, the only way they can remotely get out of that is to do shit like cut Diggs. [Reply]

Buffalo isn't even #2 now...hell they might be #4 in competition to us so it seems pretty shortsighted. Last year was their all in year, they missed and now those repercussions are felt. [Reply]

Buffalo needs to be worried about the Jets and Dolphins. Instead of trying to sign Hopkins so the Chiefs don't get him....they should be trying to shore up that defense and worry about their own division. [Reply]

And they can easily move $ again next season if needed. [Reply]

Could easily see them not winning their division, Hopkins isn't gonna change much for them with that either. [Reply]

I see this info from Albert Breer making the rounds so let’s focus on the important part:
“Structured similarly”. All that means is the deal is incentive laden NOT that they were/are planning on offering another 2M gtd deal. pic.twitter.com/xJ7xvzdVjb
The Chiefs can free up new salary cap space with any number of ways that have been discussed in this thread, so Breer trying to connect Donovan Smith’s signing as being a detriment to signing Hopkins doesn’t seem correct. [Reply]
