With cap space tight after the DeAndre Hopkins trade, the Chiefs restructured the contract of OT Jawaan Taylor by converting salary into a signing bonus, creating $5.3M in 2024 room.

I believe adding Johnson would secure the position through the Superbowl. Juju could go down at any minute and we dont know if Hollywood will be ready for sure. He may be rusty even if he can play in the playoffs.
This would give Mahomes some WRs that he can count on for the 3peat!!
I wouldnt rule out Zadarius Smith though. Veach wanted him and again its a position we could use some reinforcements.
I dont think Lattimore is in the cards because he would just be a one year rental. Even though 16 million is cheap for him, we have to pay Mcduffie and some other guys. That would be a lot tied up in Corners and we know the Chiefs like to grow their own in that position.
I think we could swing both Z Smith and Johnson under current cap space.
