The Broncos get about a $5 million discount on Miller due to his roughly $10 million 5th yr player option being picked up this season. That's certainly not insignificant but if there's a substantial rise in the cap next season, that will end up eating up some of those gains as Miller will expect a commensurate increase over what Houston got.
On balance there's really no distinction either way that I can figure out, I'm just happy that the Chiefs got it done. Now you guys can stress about getting your franchise pass-rusher locked up next year and I'll sit back content with the future of our defense being pretty secure.
