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 was pretty sure he fit under the cap with Tits eating some salary. Maybe they just wanted some wiggle room? Seems like a lot to free up without a reason but WTF do I know? [Reply]

Feels like I remember them doing a restructure last year that everybody got excited about, but it was just freeing up a few million for minor transactions and stuff. Would guess this is designed to give flexibility to trade for a relatively beneath the radar player as well as have breathing room for minor weekly transactions. [Reply]

Before the draft I was down for a corner. After 6 games, fuck that. LOAD UP on offense. "You can never have too many" corners, I mean edge rushers , NO - receivers! [Reply]
People are talking about CB but if we've learned anything about this team over the past five years is they don't like spending on corners. If they can get a young cheap one like Newsome from the Browns then maybe? But I think the bigger need might be DE tbh. Danna is banged up and no-one knows how Omenihu will look like when he returns.
