The more important point is you keep pointing to Houston's $14M cap figure as if that's what you have to pay him. You don't have to. Same with Berry. You can easily significantly reduce their year 1 cap figure by delaying a roster bonus. Again, these are things I wouldn't have done this year, but in 2015 there's PLENTY of opportunities for creative contract structuring.

By the way....
Alex Smith is getting paid $4.6M this year.
That tells you what you need to know. The Chiefs should have no problem keeping their guys on this team.
