No offense to you personally but there is a lot of short-sightedness on CP in regards to the QB situation.

DJ pretty much laid it out here about the rookie qb contract so I'll leave that there.
If Mahomes isn't ready to go by the start of next season, somethings gone wrong imo, in that it's essentially signaling that he's not where they expect him to be based on the alignment of Smith's contract.
If they want to keep smith in that situation, they'd need to restructure imo.
From over the cap it looks like cutting smith nets them 17 mil, where are you getting the 13.4?
