Chiefs forced to spend $20 million to meet new salary floor?
So it appears from most reports that the agreed upon 2011 salary cap will be $120 million with the salary floor constituting AT LEAST (and this could be increased) 90% of the salary cap (about $108 million)

Most reports had the Chiefs payroll last season near $90 million.

This means that the Chiefs will be forced to spend about $20 million just to meet the salary floor.

Clark's Chiefs will be FORCED to pursue an aggressive approach in free agency.

Chiefs Will Need To 'Spend Very Big' To Reach Salary Cap Minimum
This is the latest read on the subject:

http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2011/7...efs-salary-cap
Now that the NFL is close to re-opening its doors it's time to start focusing on training camp, free agency and how much money the Kansas City Chiefs have to spare. The Chiefs were reportedly on the low end of the salary cap and will need to hit 90 percent of the salary cap minimum by the end of the year, assuming the leaked numbers on the new salary cap are accurate.

An ESPN report pegged the Chiefs cap space at approximately $34 million (not counting the restricted free agent tenders they've handed out) and NFL Network's Jason La Canfora says the Chiefs, along with the Arizona Cardinals, Cincinnati Bengals and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, will need to spend "very big" to hit the minimum.

You can tell money isn't as big of a deal in the NFL as other sports considering both the Chiefs and Bucs -- two of the four teams with the lowest reported salary cap numbers -- won 10 games last year. Even the Cardinals are considered a quarterback away from competing.

We've already explained the Chiefs can spend the necessary money in a number of ways. They'll sign their rookies and undrafted free agents, which will knock out some of the money. They'll also pick up some guys in free agency and likely extend a player or more during the season.

GM Scott Pioli has the Chiefs in a very healthy position with the salary cap so they will have a lot of options throughout the season.

Next thing we see will be 'Chiefs sign own, have cap room for Draftees and couple of mid tier FA's'

followed by an adam teicher article listing the cap cost for the roster.

followed by weeks of people crying about how much cap space Cassel and Jackson are using.
Then we will just have MORE to spend next year. No point in front-loading a bunch of contracts if the floor is going to be there every year. We can lock up our own and sign a monster FA and still have room for a few supplements to our roster.

title suggests that Chiefs will have to spend big money IN Free Agency.

last paragraph shows that the chiefs can spend 'big' in ways that the fans won't even notice.
