Chiefs bested offers from Saints, Packers to sign WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling

We have 22.6 million in cap space right now if we wanted to pay "slightly faster Trequan Smith" $10 million dollars a year we could have. I'm glade we didn't.
I think that MVS is overrated. But that $22.6 isn’t our 2022 money. That’s borrow money from 2023. So you can use every bit of it on players, but you are doing so at the expense of our 2023 budget. I’m sure our budget constraints are playing a role on missing out on FAs. Armstead for example…that is someone you’d like to keep at that price, but apparently he was over budget.
