This organization has never had a better time to have a lot of cap space than right now. We're in the course of an enormous youth movement, facing our second of what may be 3+ years of very high draft picks, and bringing in a new era of front office.
In a year or two we'll have signed several high picks, have the money to re-sign the young players that we want to keep, and still have some money for our new GM and HC to go get the FAs they want.
I can't imagine a better way to go about rebuilding a team that has been treading water for 2 decades.
The thing I love most about all of this is how deliberate it seems. This isn't about plugging leaks to get another ~8 win season. It's about rebuilding the dam from the ground up, even if it means slogging through puddles for a few years. They are doing exactly what Chiefs fans have been asking for for years... setting aside the desire to put butts in the seats in the short term, so they can try to build a product that will create fans for many years to come.
