With the 2021 NFL offseason dwindling down and the draft in the rearview mirror, it is not too late to peer into the next offseason and speculate on how the future of the NFL will look.
The salary cap will almost certainly be a hot topic yet for a couple of interesting reasons.
With the roster as it currently stands, the Chiefs will have around $20 million of salary cap space for the post-2021 offseason if the cap comes in around $200 million. The Chiefs will only have 30 players under contract, meaning they will be mandated to add more than 20 contracts to their roster which will eat up most of that salary cap room. It is not an impossible situation to be in, but it will put pressure on an offseason where the salary cap does not balloon as it was previously expected to with new TV deals.

Cornerback is one of the most important positions on an NFL defense. It is also a hard position to project into the future.
Considering that the ups and downs of the position can be stark, teams find themselves in need of cornerbacks every year.
The Kansas City Chiefs could be one of the teams in the market for a veteran cornerback. While at least one of restricted free agent Charvarius Ward and unrestricted free agent Bashaud Breeland are expected to be back, the cornerback room will be thinned out by the other player likely leaving. Depth is always paramount at cornerback.

1. You can t beat the Chiefs by kicking field goals.
Well, the Bills tried it and it didn t work. The Chiefs defense embraced the bend don t break motto and some questionable fourth-down decisions from Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott sealed the Bills fate before the clock hit zeros. Despite going for it on their first possession from midfield, Buffalo seemingly had a change of heart in the red zone. That change
