Kelce restructures contract to clear 3.455M in cap space

[-King-]

The Chiefs have restructured the contract of All Pro TE Travis Kelce, converting base salary into a signing bonus to clear $3.455M in cap space, per source.

Let the speculation begin!

[Urc Burry]

Robert Quinn has been …. Bad. And he has a lot of contract left. He’s a lesser version of Dunlap at this point. And this is not a move for the future. Pass

Defense is a big issue? I don't see it. Yea the Bills put up 24 on us, had you known that before the game you would have expected a win.

That drive before half was bad but the defense isn't a huge issue with this team and certainly won't be once Gay and McDuffie are back.

OT, yea there are concerns.

Not just according to cp. According to everyone with a working set of eyes. Mecole Hardman still doesn't know his asshole from his elbow on 90% of his snaps. Josh Gordon flat out could not grasp it. Skyy Moore sees what, 3-4 plays on offense? That's being generous.

Juju and MVS have started off extremely slow, so there's no way I see Andy trying to bring in OBJ who can't even practice for another month, and won't know what the hell is going on anyway.

MVS has had one good game, Juju you could argue for 2 if you overlook him fumbling the ball so much in the opener. That's not great 6 weeks in. So yeah, I'm all out on OBJ being some difference maker.

It has to be dl at this point, which is frustrating because so much money and draft capital has been committed to this area, it it's been a shitshow for a long time.

But sure, let's go get Quinn who is underperforming and likely sucks now, because that's kinda what we do on the dl. We go picking through the dumpsters of other teams and bring in names that have a very small percentage of their game remaining, and we hope for the best.

Suggs, Ingram, Dunlap, it appears pass rusher is the new retread position now that we've sorted out the qb position.

Well.....yeah. You need a pass rusher or two. You probably aren't gonna go find a legitimate one because they won't give up the picks or whatever for.

Thankfully, we can sit at pick 29 and take another try hard pass rusher with not much bend.

The WR position is fine. I mean, yeah, you'd love to have Tyreek or Justin Jefferson, but they made the move they made to go the way they did.

Yeah, we should lose more games. Need those high draft picks since everybody knows you can't get good players outside the top 15.

Good God you're a miserable **** sometimes. LOL

I choose winning.

Maybe we'll get lucky in the draft though.

I’m with you. Id rather be great on offense. Our D is good enough right now to put our offense in very good position to win games. Even while severely shorthanded. But when the game is on the line I want mahomes to lead the charge and he needs some help. Tackle would be ideal for me also. I’d love a wr1 but it doesn’t feel practical mid season. I also feel we need an RB1 who is ready now to take the spot. So what if that means cutting rojo.

I am still very very much hoping it’s eric fisher and that obj can swallow his pride and move to RT. That would actually be a pretty insane upgrade

The Dline could always improve, so that would be great to see. But overall the defense isn’t that bad considering how young it is. I agree that if we could somehow improve RT or LT that would be a huge plus.

Have you been asleep for...Andy's entire tenure here?

This has zero chance of happening. I mean there's just no reason to even discuss it.

This tells me there are players and likely coaches who aren't very happy with their current WR production. But let some on CP tell it...

What do you mean zero chance? Didn’t we go after leveon bell? Shady McCoy? Didn’t we make late moves for Steven wisnewski who we later started? Even if he showed his pattern of being reluctant to use midseason WRs we still went after josh Gordon and kelvin Benjamin and tried to feature them in the offense.

I think he was talking mostly about bringing in Fisher (he's done) and moving OBJ to RT (he won't).

[Dartgod]

If this is true, forget about OBJ coming here.

The Bills are going to make a move or two. Wouldn't surprise me if they land Beckham.
