Chiefs | Team in good cap shape
Fri, 9 Feb 2007 07:57:59 -0800
Adam Teicher, of the Kansas City Star, reports the Kansas City Chiefs are currently about $5 million under the salary cap. The team, however, does not figure to be major players in free agency.
"I'd like to think we'll be active, but we'll be selective," said team president and general manager Carl Peterson. "I don't see us going out on the first day and making a big splash on anybody.
If you go back and really look at the history of free-agent signings - and really the history of early free-agent signings and big dollars - more often than not, teams have been burned.
We've all kind of gotten back to building the core of your team through the draft."
