Well I was trying to make the point that by not giving Albert $15 mill we can get a solid number two WR like a Jennings and maybe someone else to fill in holes. I bought I had read we are like $26 milk under the cap. That's with a restructuring or cutting of cassel and Jackson. The point was we can get three or four players to fill holes vs getting two which is what signing Albert will limit us to.
$7Million in cap space must go a lot further in your mind than anyone else's.
If you make the appropriate cuts cap isn't an issue. We can resign who we want.
But the Chiefs will carry over $14,079,650 in unused cap money from 2012, leaving them $7,520,530 of cap space.
Not including the contract of Smith, the Chiefs have more than $17 million of salary cap room.
The Chiefs can clear plenty more space under the salary cap by releasing defensive end Tyson Jackson. His salary cap number is almost $17.5 million and he is due a base salary of about $14.7 million. Jackson would cost the Chiefs about $2.5 million if he is released. But that move would still save them about $15 million against their salary cap.The Chiefs would also save almost $6 million against their cap when they trade or release quarterback Matt Cassel.

So we have an additional 21 million which will be all but used up if we retain Bowe and Albert. So keep both Bowe and Albert at let's just say 16 million. Leaving us 12 million to play with. Did you see how many players will need to be replaced if we let them all walk. Colquitt is gonna get like four million so that gives us 8 million to bring in a solid CB, a safety, a tight end, a solid WR, and sign that long list of players who will not be under contract, and its a pretty long list.
So on this topic you are optimistic!???
And yes u found n article that says we have flexibility. But there are also articles declaring Geno not a franchise QB and that Alex Smith is a more than capable QB so.....
