We need run-stopping DT's because if we can't stop the run we won't be able of rushing the passer.
Releasing him was the right move.

Some reports say they are trying to trade him yet that seems unlikely.

Weird move. Are they just dumping salary or preparing for Allen and a draft pick? Collins was the only dude they signed last year on the d line thay was solid. Definitely would've been part of our pass rush package

Sometimes they release guys and then re-sign them.

Not likely though, since they are looking to trade him before cutting him. They would rather have a 7th round pick than him, and paying his roster bonus. This is another move to just cut financial costs. Jed must have lost a lot of money in Vegas - maybe he bet on the Chiefs?

Maliek Collins dead cap hit is $5,432,000 if cut pre-june 1st
A post june 1st cut will incur $1,358,000 in dead cap
Unless there was some sort of option on his deal. But I remember we asked him to restructure last year, which likely created some dead cap.
I don't get this move unless Saleh wants all of his vet DTs to be 3 down players and/or offer more upside on ST.

No dead cap for us, since he came in via trade right?

Lol that's not how this works. You make the claim, you support the claim. You'd make a terrible lawyer.
