It's amazing how that available cap number has shrunk 26 mil in 9 days and money hasn't been spent.

Thats smart buisness as long as they keep spending $ and start spending it on some impact FA players as well.

That's how I've seen it all along. Now, if they let one of those guys go :mad:

As free agency approaches, Chiefs have $37 million of cap space and Bowe, Carr among players without deals.

By ADAM TEICHER

The Kansas City Star

The Chiefs are under no NFL obligation to use all of their available cap room. Under the new collective bargaining agreement signed last summer, teams are free to spend as little or as much of their available cap space as they wish.

I would bet big that if the Chiefs do NOT utilize at east most of their available $37mm estimated cap, the Arrowhead fan base will take a gigantic hit. I hope Clark realizes that once you lose fan, it is hard to get them back.

You think Clark might not be taking money from the players side of revenues, which he can do until the 2013 fiscal year? The salary floor was put in because of the Chiefs and Hunt not spending enough on salaries, but keeping the money himself

The article didn't take into account the roll over.

The NFL has yet to set a team salary cap for 2012, but teams are expecting it to be about the same as last year: $120,375,000. The Chiefs also have $24,014,337 they didn’t use against their 2011 cap that they can use in 2012.
So the Chiefs’ adjusted salary cap for 2012 is $144,389,337.
Subtracting total salary cap obligations of $107,009,195 (explained below), that leaves the Chiefs with $37,380,142 of available cap room. The top 51 cap numbers count against the salary cap.

Read the above again.

It's an easy way for Clark to make an additional 30 million before the cap floor begins.

Sabby should have a contract to selling 1800 Tequila. Football, not so much.
