Been saying it for a couple months now - Wylie is a PERFECT candidate for the 4-year veterans exemption.
Under the 4-year qualifying player benefit, the Chiefs could offer Wylie a 1 year deal for $2.42 million and slightly less than half of that would count against the cap.
Now maybe he played his way into a better deal on the market - it's not impossible. But we'd have said the same thing about Reiter and that dude ended up bouncing on and off practice squads all year.
Offer it to him quick and see if he wants to spin the wheel and take his chances. Then find another Remmers/Blythe kind of under the radar veteran and hope that Niang makes the entire conversation moot by flat out earning the job.
