How much cap would we have if it does go to 130m?

Rough est. without looking 9m??

Got us at 122m. So around 8m.

We also are rolling over 2 million from last year, dunno if that's there or not

Chiefs will have $6.62 million of cap space

This should be enough, combined with a Berry extension, to get us Alex Smith extended and Schwartz brought back.

At this point, I'd consider it an upset to keep our current roster in tact and bringing back any of the following players: Albert, Asamoah, McCluster, Jackson, and Abdullah.

We'll have to build through the draft, and hope Kelce and Commings come back better than ever.

The good news, as I've said before, is that that would likely net us 5 compensatory picks in 2015, giving us 12 total picks in that draft.

Then, looking ahead, the Chiefs possibly cut Hali, Flowers, Sean Smith, and Avery in 2015.

That would open up about $25m by itself. That would allow us to extend Houston pretty easily.

That does mean that, as many of my mocks have suggested, that drafting a passrusher like Dee Ford in the 1st and a corner like E.J. Gaines or Pierre Desir might be necessary this year, to protect us from losing that much talent. We could be trotting out two brand new starters at corner.

I'm with you with all of it except Dex. I want him back. I think the dude brings something to the roster.

He appears to have hit that "Dante moment" when he finally has his groove returning.

In the passing game he's still an undersized HB trying to play WR...

Has the NFLPA decided whether or not to use their 2 million dollar salary cap increase option?

Don't know.

When's the deadline to...

...you know, I just don't ****ing care. There was once a time under the old CBA that you could actually read it in less time than the Obamacare bill and actually understand it without a lawyer (even though I use to bug a buddy do do just that.)

Now you have to take contracts, overlay the new (ever changing) CBA rules on top, and then guesstimate how it impacts a new contract because the Chiefs are bad about making terms public...

How can Kelce and Commings come back better than ever when they've never been here?

If they come back at all they're better than ever...:homer:

BossChief called this a while back.
