Fantasy Impact
In the wake of signing his monster six-year, $78 million deal, Berry is the highest paid safety in the NFL, which is a well-deserved honor for an All-Pro player and cancer survivor. Now that Berry is signed, the Chiefs could use the franchise tag on Dontari Poe and lock up both of their premier defensive free agents for 2017. Expect Kansas City to tag Poe by Wednesday's 4 pm deadline.
