    Default how much money do chiefs have now in salary cap

    i just remember seeing kc had like 30 million in salrary cap money...and compared to the rest i think the other 3 teams were in the 3-8 million range we had alot more. Is it just me or do you think maybe they didn't spend that much money on FA last offseason on purpose? So they will have more to spend on this off season on better FA's. just a thought

    So you're trying to say that if a team doesn't spend all of it's money it doesn't add onto the amount of money the team has the next season?

    There is a minimum in the salary cap as well. If you dont spend X amount (not sure what the minimum is) than the difference making up to that amount is split among the players on your roster. After that, any salary cap you have is not transfered over to next year. Use it or lose it. Though, your not really losing it since it is just an alloted amount which is alloted to you again the next season.

    That is all.

    Well put. The money doesn't come out of thin air. It comes out of Clark Hunt's pockets.

    One last thing. If a new CBA is not reached, next year could be an upcapped year which could create some crazy free agency scenarios.

    I'm sure its no coincidence that Arrowhead being revamped and spending very little the last 3 years I beleive.

    He's trying to recoup some of the money he spent, it seems obvious its hurting the team also.
    Money isnt everything in football as in baseball but you have to spend some to win.

    ...Would spell bad news for the "small market teams", like the Chiefs IMO.
