Poe is gone.
He's easily the most overrated player on the defense. |

Looking at cap space I think the Chiefs can keep Berry at his price tag, but some things need to happen.
-This needs to be Tamba's last year. -Jamaal needs to restructure his deal or be cut. -Colquitt needs to restructure his deal or be cut. -Zombo, Mauga, etc needs to be cut. -QBOTF needs to be projected for 2018 either by the draft or Foles at a much lower cap hit than Alex. -The Chiefs need to be frugal in FA this year. We need to start purging the roster of the $$ that's being wasted.

This is dumb. They didn't take Eric Murray to replace Eric Berry.

That deal is insane. No is the only answer.

Actually, they did. Listen to the scouts after the draft.

Depends on the salary in the first 3-4 years.
Without knowing that, there's now way to answer. I presume you're talking about guaranteed money as signing bonus and guaranteed salary in years 1 and 2? Maybe year 3 as well? Let's break it down in a way that I would see as palatable: 5 years and $70 with a signing bonus of $25 million and guaranteed salaries of $3 million in year one and $5 million in year 2; $10 million salary in year 3 with $5 million guaranteed. Non-guaranteed salaries of $12 and $15 million due in years 4 and 5. So the bonus adds $5 million/season in cap hit. 2017 cap figure: $8 million 2018 cap figure: $10 million 2019 cap figure: $15 million 2020 cap figure: $17 million 2021 cap figure: $20 million Now it seems exceptionally unlikely that you actually keep him in 2020 so you cut him with a June 1 tag that year, eat $5 million and take a $5 million cap charge for the following year. Honestly, that's about as close to 'tolerable' as I can see a reasonable breakdown of your 70/$38 guaranteed proposal and in the end, I think I'd walk away from it. Taking $10 million in cap penalties so you can take $11 million/season in cap hits over 3 seasons on a safety is pretty onerous. I think your total figures are about 12-15% too high. Let's say 5/60 w/ $32 million guaranteed instead. Signing bonus of $20 million with guaranteed salaries of 3 and 5 million in years 1 and 2, partially guaranteed at $8 million in year 3. Unguaranteed salaries of $10 and $14 million in years 4 and 5. 2017: $7 million cap hit 2018: $9 million cap hit 2019: $12 million cap hit 2020: $14 million cap hit 2021: $18 million cap hit At that point keeping him around in 2020 is actually feasible so you've actually gotten return on 4 years of that signing bonus instead of 3 and then eating 2 of them. If you keep him through 4 years, you've spent $46 million over 4 seasons (fair figure for the market) and if all hell breaks loose you've spent $36 over three; as a worst case scenario, Berry does pretty well there. So ultimately I'd say no to your proposal but you have my counter, Mr. Berry.

There is a shit ton of money this team can clear in 2018:
Smith, Johnson, Hali and Bailey are owed 46.5M for 2018. None of them will see a dime of that beyond dead money. |

He will get around that and in a couple years , tilt won't look as bad as other players eclipse that. (It's sad these ****s continue to get more as we get raped at the gate)

Post other players' salaries that are similar.
The cap has changed a lot lately so it's hard to get a grasp on what is proper pay. |
