Realistically the Chiefs are pretty much at the cap. Now some of those draft picks will displace guys, but many of those are past the 'top 51' that's factored into the cap cutoff anyway so it wouldn't help the cap. But if they drafted, for instance, an OT that makes Reid expendable (likely), that's another $1.5 million or so that they'd save.
Unless they restructure Houston, they'd be hard pressed to make any significant moves. And God help us if they restructure Smith.

I'd be fine with restructuring Houston but I also think that Reid needs to be gone as well as doing something with Colquitt.
