Chiefs are only paying 100k in dead money to Kamal Hadden. Eagles are paying $29 million in dead money and almost $27 million of that is going to Kelce and Cox.
Eagles have actually averaged over $60 million dead money since 2021. They had $63 million this year. This is a terrible business plan if you have a young Mahomes.
They didn’t spend hardly anything on FA’s bc of that dead money. They just found 2 of the biggest grand slams in Zack Baun and Mekhi Becton. Drafting Mitchell and DeJean helped as well.
Of course you can’t compare that to us. They drafted in the top 10 multiple times recently and got Jalen Carter and DeVonta Smith.
It’s an overly aggressive plan that requires you to be right far more than being wrong. Last year they were wrong and we saw what happened.
