There are no problems and we're well set up to address it. I pretty much tried to touch on the process through the moves I've been making in my mocks.
For one, OTC hasn't updated its cap calculations to match the change in the salary cap. They originally estimated the salary cap at 220m and it's 224.8. The Chiefs have cap liabilities of 223.6, so they should have 1.2m in space.
You can gain 27.5m in cap just by restructuring Mahomes' 34.4m roster bonus to a signing bonus.
You can gain 21.0m in cap just by cutting Frank Clark, take off whatever from that 21 if you keep him around at a reduced salary.
You can likely pick up 5-7m by working a Chris Jones extension.
You could restructure Thuney and pick up as much as 9.5m if you want (I see it as doubtful and unnecessary).
You can pick up 4.1m if you restructured Reid (I see it as doubtful and unnecessary).
We can save 7.0m if we cut MVS (doubtful).
The sky is most definitely NOT falling. We can get to 48m in space with absolute ease. Don't sweat it man.
And yes, duncan is on it with the effective space requirement for the draft class. With top 51, you will only need a few million.
