Rapoport suggested the interest wasn't there with the Eagles "stacked at tight end" and "dealing with cap considerations." 16 teams have already reached out to Burton and he's expected to have a strong market in free agency. After spending the past few years as a backup behind Zach Ertz, Burton will look to be in a starting role. Mar 3 - 1:14 PM

hes not going to take an incentive deal where theres teams with 80 million in cap that can give him an entire payday and still not dent their space or flexibility.

Considering only 3 Chiefs are being payed more than $10 million...(Houston, Berry and Fisher)..I think $35 million will be enough to sign a few players.

But they aren’t gonna be able to compete with the teams that are flush with cash. The chiefs would have to get creative with it and those teams can just outbid them without hurting their cap |

Exactly.
If it were, the Cleveland Browns would manage to OCCASIONALLY sign a big-name free agent to a deal. Who's the last big name they attracted? Jamal Lewis? And that was a Jamal Lewis at the end of his career, too. |

Occasionally money isn’t the driving factor
Overwhelmingly, it is |

If I’m spending money, I want to spend it on a true young talent, and there aren’t many of those guys this year. Overpaying for lesser value is what got us in this hell hole. We also have to give new deals Tyreek Hill, Chris Jones and Kendall Fuller next offseason. |

So Say we have $30m to spend, what kind of contracts do you think we can hand out?
x1 contract @ ~$10m per year x1 contract @ ~$7m per year x2 contract @ ~$4m per year x2 contract @ ~$2.5m per year |

To the guys at the top tier it absolutely is. The Allen Robinson, Sammy Watkins, Jarvis Landy, Kirk Cousins, Truimaine Johnson tier absolutely want to be paid every bit on the highest end.
To lazy character guys like Sheldon Richardson and Mo Wilkerson they also care about the dollar sign and dollar sign only. To that 2nd and 3rd tier guys that still need to play their way into a bigger contract cause of injury, opportunity, poor play, etc (The Trent Murphys, David Amersons, Kenny Vaccaro etc) then yes money isn't the only factor. There are a ton of veterans that will probably take way less just to prove they can still play in this league. Those guys carry injury, production, character concerns. But I mean Kurt Coleman just got cut and then got a 3 year 18 million dollar deal. 6 million a year for KURT SLOWMAN WHO IS 30 to play safety. That's garbage. That's who the Saints signed to replace Vacarro. Think about that. There will be tons of signings like that this year. |

The cap keeps going up...and KC is shedding dead money soon. They dont have to wait until it is actually gone....they can stagger deals. |
