You really think that teams are magically spending money that never counts against the cap? The only true measure of how much a team is actually spending is their yearly cap number.

I thought we rolled over about 14 mill in unused cap space from 2012 on to the 2013 salary cap?????

And despite the rollover, we are near our cap limit. Therefore, between the two years, we were basically at the cap both years on average. Oops edit. We have spent more in two years than average.

But the Chiefs will be about $7.5 million under the salary cap when the league year begins on March 12 because they have $14 million of unused cap space from the 2012 season to carry over into 2013. That effectively makes the Chiefs’ 2013 salary cap about $137 million.

7.5 mil sure isn't a lot by any means but it sure beats that 4.5 mil number that we supposedly have right now.
