4X pro bowler, 2X first team All-pro and just came off NFL comeback player of the year and you think he's making crazy demands bc he wants to get paid the same $$ that Earl Thomas was paid.
The Chiefs not thinking Berry is worth that much is fine, but if you were Eric you'd do the same damn thing and you know it.

Earl Thomas' deal was 5/50
Berry wanted 12m average per with over half guaranteed.
And the Chiefs have paid almost every free agent they have had...and wanted Berry to take out an insurance policy to protect the team in case cancer came back.. He refused.
He wants 20% more than the highest paid safety in NFL history got.
That's just rediculous.

Could they have taken it and rolled it over to this year's cap?

yes, but that would have been a dirtbag move. Berry was worth every penny of what he got last year...but he's in no way worth 12m per year with a stupid amount of guaranteed money for a guy coming off cancer that can return at any point.
