Kelce restructures contract to clear 3.455M in cap space

[Red Dawg]

Clearly a sign they are giving Frank Calrk a pay jump.

[Gary Cooper]

Josh Gordon coming back?

There are no obvious roster spots at DE. Who do you bench?

Clark? Dunlap? Karlaftis? Danna? They're all going to continue to rack up snaps.

I think the same could be said at WR. It's just very unlikely they bench Hardman, and Moore's snaps are only going to grow with JuJu and MVS racking up snaps too.

Where are there snaps to be earned?

RB? The Chiefs simply are not going to bench Clyde, though they may reduce his snaps. The Chiefs like McKinnon and Pacheco, who they're not going to bench when December arrives. I don't think there are snaps there.

Two places, in order of likelihood:

RT -- Wylie is JAG and Niang is imaginary
DT -- a snap-hole opened up in the wake of Wharton's injury

These are the only two positions that make sense to me.

They're absolutely, positively not going to bench Frank Clark. Lack of production aside, even accounting for how bad he's played so far (even though he played well against the Bills).

Dude is a leader of the DE position group, whether we like him or not.

We can moan about it, but he's not getting benched.

I'd agree to most of that. Maybe you add another DE in case something happens to Clark. Is he still in legal trouble? Stallworth filled Wharton's hole, so I don't see that happening. As much as I'd like to see Wylie on the next Greyhound out of town, you'd have his contract to pay out.

Wylie is about the price you pay for a good utility lineman, which is what he is.

Stallworth wasn't active last week. So I do think there are snaps at the DT position still to earn.

Did you ever consider that Hardman or CEH or some other player could be included in a trade, thus opening up said rotation spot?

I hadn't considered that, actually.

While not impossible, i always find it funny when players people constantly complain about on the board are then suddenly suggested to be included in a trade to another team.

If the expertise on this board determines a player has no redeeming value, why would we expect another team to be salivating over the guy?

I didn't say trade Hardman for Moore straight up. With Panthers already trading Anderson and IF Veach was trying to pull Moore away. I would think a cheap rookie deal WR like Hardman....WITH PICKS......would make trading away both your #1 and #2 receivers a little easier to swallow to your fan base.

Panthers get:
1st round pick
Hardman

Chiefs get:
Moore

See what I'm saying?

Could also use the same example for say CMC. They get cap relief PLUS a #1 RB in CEH at a cheap rookie contract that makes the deal happen easier.

I see, but based on many opinions of Hardman around here, I think the trade scenario would work more like this:

Panthers get:
1st Round Pick
2nd Round Pick

Chiefs Get:
Moore

Or if the Chiefs want to include Hardman to free up cap space:

Panthers Get:
1st Round Pick
2nd Round Pick
7th Round Pick
Hardman

Chiefs Get:
Moore

I guess my point is, tanking teams don't want fringe replacement level players. They value draft picks to rebuild. If a team is tanking and have a roster need, they will just activate a player from the practice squad who at least already knows their system. Hardman doesn't add value to a tanking team mid-season.
