Any idea on where that puts us? Around $8 million right now?

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.

Gotta admit, $12m is going to make things super interesting. The good news is that we don't have to do any restructuring. And we can still extend Berry and net us another $3-4m.

The main problem is, Alex Smith is going to eat up at least half of that cap room. Then it's going to be a bunch of value signings.

This team will still need to improve through the draft.

Hali's contract in 2014 is basically guaranteed. Unless you think the Chiefs would take a $6M cap hit this year to cut him with no backup plan.

I'm going to cut out all the stuff you wrote about NPV because it's long and has no place here. NPV is worthless and overcomplicated. Hali doesn't care about the NPV of his contract. He cares about how much money he is guaranteed, and how much money MIGHT be guaranteed. Period. There's no reason for him to care about the value of his contract in years where he knows he'll be cut anyway.

So you don't think agents evaluate contracts based on their npv and the likelyhood of collection? I can't educate the willfully ignorant.

Why? He already accounts for 8mil under his current deal. Unless you think he's going to account for $14+ mil this year (which he won't), you're wrong.
