The Chiefs can do any of those things and save a buttload of cap space. Because a lot of bad contracts start going off the books the next 2 years, the best way to dodge the cap is to sign players to a decent sized signing bonus then load in a big roster bonus the 2nd or 3rd year of the contract. Basically a basic way of deferring a bonus and doing it in a way where that deferred bonus is practically guaranteed.
