Kansas City Chiefs' front office has been finding value this season, getting strong production relative to contract commitments. Across 14 contracts, 5 grade out as good value and 3 look like overpays based on comparable deals around the league. The best bang-for-the-buck deal was Emari Demercado (A+) at $1.3M/yr — getting running back production well above the price point. The priciest commitment relative to production was Mike Caliendo (F) at $1.4M/yr — the offensive line market may have been richer than the on-field return suggests. This front office is maximizing its cap dollars and building sustainable depth.
