In 3 years, the salary cap is gonna be 150-155 million (maybe more, but at least that much) and players like Bowe, Hali, Flowers and Charles are gonna be gone, as will their contracts.

You think converting 8 million of Bowes base salary and spreading it between te next 4 years would hurt this teams cap situation? That's laughable. How about converting 5 million of Hali's base to a bonus over the next 3 years...that's 13 million that won't hurt this tam AT ALL over the next 2-3 years ...BUT THE TEAM COULD ADD SANDERS, WARD/CLEMONS AND DEITRICH SMITH WITH THAT MONEY.

add to that, the draft picks we have coming in as well as the players from last years draft that didnt contribute due to various reasons and EVERYONE HERE would be excited about next year.

Instead, you choose to tow the company line, as usual.

What's laughable is you think that Bowe and Hali would agree to restructure guaranteed money into a small signing bonus like that. If you wait one year, THEN you can start talking about the Chiefs restructuring with a reasonable signing bonus.

If I'm Hali's agent and I know Hali is basically guaranteed $11M this year (he knows he won't get cut), then why in the world would I settle for only an $11M signing bonus?
