And probably another 10-15 UDFA after the draft, of which probably 3-5 make the team. Most of which will probably be under contract for more than one year or will be retained on a year to year basis.
So that’ll get you to at least 40 players there for 2023. And takes up maybe $25-$30 mil. in cap space. So still leaves you about $50 mil. to play with in FA before the draft in 2023.
The Chiefs won’t have any problem fielding a full team with that amount of cap space for 2023.
The Chiefs have one of the better cap situations in the NFL right now and it’s about to get better with the influx of young cheap talent that is coming. We’ll be just fine.
Anyone who tells you other wise is an idiot.

True. And we can still pay Orlando Brown and have a truckload of cash.
