Just that maybe, in the right spots (like when a 27-year-old gamebreaking WR who is explosive in the short, intermediate and deep passing games, has a history with this head coach and is available at a SIGNIFICANT discount considering his ability) the Chiefs should use a widespread and accepted NFL tactic to create some cap room and bring in that guy.

What is the difference between spending $100,000 for 3 years for a total of $300,000. Versus spending $175,000 today, $75,000 in year 2, and $50,000 in year 3 for a total of $300,000? Would you call one of those approaches being cheap, and the other not?

NFL contacts, by and large, are not guaranteed. Therefore, only year 1 is particularly relevant. There's a HUGE DIFFERENCE between 100K and 175K.
