Gotta get some defensive FA's though, as it stands they need a starting safety, ILB, NT and arguably a corner. With no first round pick, you can't expect that many starters from the draft.
Over the cap has the Chiefs at $14m cap space after the two trades, so after the Parker cut and the assumed Hali cut that would be $27m cap space. Bailey would be another $6m, but then you only have 1 DL signed...
Of that $27m-$33m, you need to re-sign some cheap guys (KPL, Mitchell, Nunez-Roches, Fulton if cheap), spend some of it on the draft and leave some wiggle room for mid season signings.
Of the ~$20m we can spend on free agents, I kind of hope at least $15m goes on the defense, and I'm okay with a bit of backloading (e.g. signing an $8m WR with $5m cap hit in the coming year) but not a lot.
