You're right - it sure did and that contract was not over the top at all....The way the contract was structured, it made it harder for the Chiefs to do. Of course a big signing bonus could have made it work and Smith is young enough that he probably has the years left to spread that out. I'd have done it the same way with signing all the other players first too. Bottom line was he was a priority, but not their top one. Let's see who they get in his place. I don't think Dorsey will go the Stanford Routt, route. They know how important TWO good starting CB's are in Sutton's defense.
