"The Chiefs do not have that problem. We have to think of it in terms of accountability. Chiefs can account for more money than any team in the NFL. Chiefs can give a 10 million dollar roster bonus to Carr, a 5 million dollar base, and guarantee the base salaries against injury the first two years. That guarantees the contract for a little over 20 million the first 2 years. Non guarantee the final 4 years of the contract and that's a 6 year 50 million dollar contract. If that isn't enough then add a 5 million dollar signing bonus. The Chiefs have the same years, length, and money invested, but the accounting would be different than most teams."
Why the **** doesnt this FO just do something like that with that much space, throw a bunch of money at him, and who gives a **** with so much cap space by year 3 his contract wont matter because it was all front loaded and Carr gets his money. Everyone wins.
