What do the Chiefs do w/ the extra cap space?

[CoMoChief]

The Chiefs supposedly gain about $4-5M in cap space w/ the Justin Houston contract extension.

What do the Chiefs do w/ that extra cap allowance?

He's a fine player and appears to be a good person. But his salary has never been justified and he's not a game changer on the field.

Bro, check those stats I just posted.

He basically took every TE we faced off the field. He changed the complexion of those games without it showing up on his stat sheet. Not to mention the fact that he did that while adding 2 INT return TDs and 3.5 sacks. He changed a hell of a lot in games.

An INT returned for a TD has to be worth, like, 2 INTs that weren't returned for a TD

Well..then it makes Pioli that much more of a reerun. He drafted a $60 million SS...so both Sutton AND Crennel played him out of position? Somethings not right with this scenario..

Overrated is over the top IMO considering how he is used. He was also damn good at how he was used also. Eric Berry isn't overrated.

Agreed. Does it surprise you? Pioli is the ****ing anti-Christ. He's a POS, who still somehow gets praised for what any average dickhead would've done while he was here.

I just want to see Berry playing more of a FS role for one full, albeit healthy, season.

He most definitely was over-paid...by like $30 million dollars though. Not his fault on that..drafted too high and rookie scale was out of whack.

I dont have an issue with Berry..I have an issue with paying him almost 12 million dollars last season. He's worth about half that.

Ya, not his fault. That was the old ****ed up CBA where all the top 10 contracts were ridiculously inflated. Would you of rather had Russell Okung?

I don't care "how he was used", he wasn't a game changer. He wasn't worthy of $60 million and he's clearly overrated by fans.

I would.

Or Thomas. Or Joe Haden. Or Iupati. Or Maurkice Pouncy. Or Demaryous Thomas. Or Jared Odrick. And even Brian Bulaga.

A waiver wire pickup outplayed him last year.

Probably...yes. LT is more important. You just dont pay a rookie safety $60 million. He has to be the best in 10 years for you to break even. Pioli was looking for play-makers...but the risk was too high given the contractual obligations.

That's all in hindsight minus Okung, no one was taking Iupati a ****ing guard top 5. Or Pouncey. Or Thomas. Or Haden. Or ****ing Odrick or Bulaga. We had Carr and Flowers. So no need to take Haden. Earl Thomas was never going top 5.

John Dorsey would have taken Haden

Considering he was playing with a mass in his chest, that's not surprising. And crazy for you to say an argument.

We had Branden Albert.
