I wanted to show what the Kansas City Chiefs have invested in each position.
The following posts will show -
What the position and the players current contract costs for the cap.
How the player was acquired and when.
Some positions we have spent very little in draft capital.
Some positions we are spending lots of money and not getting much back in return.
Also breaking this down by position because it makes it a little easier to read.
Most of you already know the positions we need to address with the draft, but I also included a brief take on players or where we might draft for that position.
The easy one is QB...
Quarterbacks (3/2) $39,065,000 cap total for QBs. How Acquired - One 1st round. One FA. One CFA.

• 15 Patrick Mahomes, Age 26, 6-3, 227, (’22 $35.8M, ‘23 46.8M…’31 $52.5) ‘17 draft (1-10) Traded with Buffalo to move from 27th to 10th.
• 4 Chad Henne, Age 37, 6-3, 215, (’22 $3,265,000) ‘18 FA
• 6 Shane Buechele, Age 23. 6-0, 208, (’22 $825K*, ‘23 ERFA) ’21 CFA
QB: Patrick Mahomes is the starter. Chad Henne with a guaranteed $3.265M will be primary backup. Shane Buechele is trying for 3rd QB (if KC keeps 3) and probably gets picked up if Chiefs try to put him on the Practice Squad.
Possible draft: Late round or UDFA for Practice Squad and camp arm.
*Not in 51 cutoff for Cap calculations
