Watkins is the key.

His release or a trade would free up $14 million, but $7 million in dead money would be created. An extension could help the cap and keep a major weapon around.

LDT, Reiter, Sorenson, Colquitt all potential cut candidates. Clark re-structure potentially in play. I’m skeptical of a Jones trade. I think he plays on the tag.

Since the trades don't take effect until that deadline on Wednesday, does that mean we have to be under the cap before we can complete any trades? In other words, is our only choice for freeing up cap space through restructure or cutting?

Yes. That is why the tag designations precede free agency. The tag amount is applied to your cap immediately upon designation. Jones’ $16+ million dollar cap number was in effect since yesterday.

They can dump Erving and restructure Clark and be under the cap.

VAGOMO 4 LIFE! 03-17-2020 10:04 PM

Erving will save you 3.25 mil

OKchiefs 03-17-2020 10:08 PM

I thought Erving was already dumped?

Doesn’t become official until tomorrow

With McCoy leaving Carolina, I wonder if Matt Rhule wants to make a splash and fill a need with arguably the best defensive tackle in the game in a trade with the Chiefs?

Panthers have over $25 million in cap space. Bridgewater for Cam is a push salary wise, pending a trade of Newton.

Panthers receive Chris Jones + Chiefs 2020 1st (#32) = 590 points trade value chart

Chiefs receive Panthers 2020 1st (#7) + 2020 3rd (#69) = 1745 points trade value chart

Net trade value chart points = 1155 points or the equivalent of the 13th pick overall.

Maybe Okafor.

Oh. So really, not much is going to happen with the Chiefs. More the likely.

Like, I know we're not signing anybody. I was just looking for some cut or trade. Something to stir shit up around here.

Panthers are tanking for Lawrence. I don’t see them making a move like that this early in the process. Sounds good in theory though.

There just aren’t a lot of potential suitors for Jones.

The best bet is absolutely the Dolphins. They are the only team left with the draft capital and cap space to make this trade.

I posted a scenario earlier where someone said we trade them Jones and #32 for their first #18 and both of their seconds
