Magical cap dollars sound great.

Actually, that might be the most painless part for the Chiefs. With all the wiggle-room built into the process, the cap is easily manipulated. Right now the Chiefs have a formal Cap Space of $5,856,396. That would more than cover someone like Antoine Bethea (FS), if the Cards are willing to trade. Players get restructured all the time. It can often be as easy as converting some salary to bonus. Player gets the money sooner and the team gets added cap space. I won't pretend to know all the arcane intricacies of the NFL salary cap. But I do know that teams manipulate the numbers quite frequently to make room for a new signing or extension.
