Oh, I agree, I'm just saying that's what I'd be good with in terms of a deal for Poe.

I sure as hell wouldn't pay Logan $8 million again.

No, wouldn't pay Logan 8 mil.

I don't think he'd be a bad option but 8 mil per? Nah. No thanks.

As a football move, probably not a good idea. I would still love to have him back because his touchdown pass on Christmas was the best play I've ever seen live as a Chiefs fan.

Some chatter that Vic Beasley may not be in the Falcons long term plans. I'd flip them next years 2nd for him.

What? They picked up his 5th year option

https://t.co/eAJHlHipxl?amp=1

Apparently they are moving him to a 4-3 DE this year? If they want to deal him, I’d give a 2.

Just something I saw on twitter. No clue on the validity of it.

I don't know about him at 34 OLB though.

That a huge price to pay for a guy that would need to be extended with a huge contract as well.

I'd rather draft a guy early next year but that's only if Tanoh doesn't work out.

I’m with you. No to Poe.

Hi Guys - If I may interrupt for a moment - is anyone watching the combine?? It did begin, right?

Yeah, I'm not big on guys with motivational issues but I'm much rather pay a guy that just needs motivating than a guy that has a bad back.

Just interviews

True.

But if it worked out you'd have Houston coming off a deal at the same time. I'd probably not do it but it's an idea.

I’d take honey badger ALL DAY. Especially after losing Peters. The guy is a turnover machine.

Trade Ford? :)

Yeah, if the Badger is healthy, he's a young athlete that would fit really well. Damn that'd be a nice add.

thanks

what is Honey Badger's name, please?

Tyrann
Mathieu

**** yes to The Honey Badger

thank you - that's sweet of you to rapidly reply.

You seem nice.

Justin Ellis was ranked the 14th best DT against the run last year.

Either him or Pennel would be ideal. We NEED a run stuffer in the worst possible way. 2 playoff games straight we've had the ball jammed down our throats repeatedly in the run game.

Need about 3 or 4 run stoppers in the front 7

Reid had his presser today. Veach has his q/a tomorrow sometime. Friday morning the weigh ins, testing, and position group drills start

Is Honey Badger likely to be available? Doesn't he play the same style of safety as EB?

I can confirm, not only does SR seem nice, he actually is! :)

Was just looking at the top 100 FA on NFL.com, how about Adrian Clayborn?

With Mathieu and Berry....you have two safeties that can do anything.

http://arizonasports.com/story/14359...ndidate-watch/

I personally don't see a fit here in Kansas City but it will be interesting to watch if he's moved.

I don't know I'd want to pay him a ton, but the way we use sub packages and stuff he'd probably be an interesting guy to watch in our defense.

He’s a much better Ron Parker.

Plays slot, plays single high, matches up well with almost anyone and is ultra competitive.

The most important part is that he has an amazing nose for the ball.

Chiefs are in sub stuff 70 plus % of the time. He'd be a great add with Berry if they can stay healthy.

I can't imagine Veach ponying up for a 5'8 Safety with a pretty serious injury history.

He's certainly not going to match up well with Amari Cooper, Demaryus Thomas, Keenan Allen or any of the other division's 6'1+ WR's, not to mention, tight ends.

No. **** no.

Have we not ****ing learned about setting money on fire for broke dicks?!

People said this exact stuff before he was drafted and all he’s done is match up well against almost everyone and been one of the best defensive players in the league.

To me, his ONLY concern is his injury history.

Bosschief has a honeyboner

Yes please on Honey Badger

He can do it, but that injury history--woof

This team has no cap flexibility to take on Honey Badger, you people are on glue. This isn't Madden.

Any thoughts on Willie Young? Hes 32 but getting a decent pass rushing OLB isn't that easy. If they could get Young for a cheaper, say 2 year deal, it would give the Chiefs a little time to develop an OLB draft pick.

Dude, Veach isn't signing anyone in their 30's.

He's looking for young, cheap, speed.

He wants an attacking defense with guys that can fly all over the field.

Uh what? They have over 20 million.

That’s without cutting Bailey and can even get 2 million by cutting Harris

Are there any guys like that actually available at OLB, outside of the draft? Honest question.

Not saying you are wrong about not signing anyone over 30 but that is exactly how Young plays. Dude plays like his hair is on fire.

However, he did have a torn triceps last year so may be hitting the brokedick stage of his career. Just looking at the various options.

Not to mention that NFL contracts can always be manipulated, we've seen the Chiefs offer large signing bonuses in the past to bring guys in on moderate annual contracts.

No one is out of reach for the Chiefs, plenty of purse to spend if we're willing to get creative.

I say **** it, pay The Badger AND Talib lol

No.

The Chiefs under Veach are trying to build a young Super Bowl contender.

Throwing dollars at old guys or guys that have a long injury history doesn’t fit that plan.

Makes for a cheap contract. Nice.

i hate that guy

If people have not figured out that this isn't your fathers Chiefs team they are just idiots.

Melvin of the Colts is being allowed to test free agency.

If the criteria is really guys under 30 only, that's kind of stupid. There are so many holes you have to fill, some of them have to be plugged with older veterans or guys with injury history, for the right price in a way that you can walk away from easily, while you work on getting younger.

You can just fill the roster with undrafted guys just to be younger.

Yes please. No idea what kind of contract that would require though.

Would talib restructure his deal if traded? He’s not as young as the badger, but cheaper

Why?

Exactly.

You can sign some of those older players to short deals and draft their replacement to develop while they're playing out the deal.

That's the ideal thing to do and seems to be what Dorsey tried to do, just didn't hit the draft picks like he needed to.

Mathieu would be interesting in that he's only 25.

Market inefficiencies are guys like Wilkerson if they pan out. Cheaper vet deal on a guy looking to get another big payday.

Go ahead and list the over 30 players that have been successful Free Agent signings for the Chiefs.

I'd love to see the explanation for your hatred for him...

Sounds like dee ford is here to stay. I find that kind of odd.

These back issues were well known before Dorsey spent a first on him. Iirc he couldn’t even work out at the combine because of them. I hope Dee comes back healthy because if he does, Houston, Passagnon and him are a good trio of pass rushers. Veach adds in one more and we can probably look to move/restructure Houston next offseason if he doesn’t have the impact he should have at his salary.

Next offseason is gonna be fun.

Huge cap space.

Extra picks.

Franchise QB.

Giddy up

First, even if we are not enamoured with Dee Ford, its in the Chiefs best interest to see him come back and play well in 2018. First we need an OLB and lets be honest we probably can't afford one in FA and we don't have a first round draft pick. Second, if he plays well it gives the Chiefs another year to look at him, and if we let him walk perhaps we can get a decent compensatory pick for him. The ONLY way I'd cut his ass is if i didn't think he will be healthy in 2018.

With Crabtree possibly cut, watch us get Talib and Crabtree haha what a mess that could be

There’s gona be more cuts coming. I’m fine if kc targets cuts to save on compa picks for next year. Fulton and Wilson will help that a lot.

Turning Albert Wilson, an UDFA, into a 3rd round comp pick would be fantastic

I don't think so.

Veach is trying to remake the Chiefs into a young, quick and fast team, offensively and defensively.

That's not going to fully happen in one season but signing old veterans will just slow down the process.

He’s also remaking the locker room. Talib doesn’t fit that.

Crabtree isn't leaving Oakland anyway

I just know the chiefsiest thing will happen. He'll have 22 sacks get a pay day then break in half in 2019. I'd still like to find some rotation at olb. Zombo just isn't it.

Plenty of OLB help coming off recent injuries that should be affordable, like Okafor, Attaochu or Trent Murphy.

It would be pretty unlucky if one of these guys was a shell of their former self, Ford was injured again AND Kpass fails to progress, surely...

Crabtree is going to be released, any interest?

Nope.

He'll be 31 when the season starts and not a fit.

Good. I hope they keep Sean Smith too.

KC is going to need another Safety...no guarantee Berry is going to be ready or ever back to what he was. He's had foot issues for several years.. Parker is a goner too...

They have a fair amount of cap room now/next year ..and wont have to worry about paying Peters in the future.

What's the story on Tyrann Mathieu?

Seems like a good time to capitalize on their cheap labor in Hunt, Hill and Mahomes...

I think he's a Douche and has a stupid nickname

FWIW this guy is a journalist and is at the combine. Works for usatoday

Hmmm

Andy loves flipping QBs. Could do it with Kizer. Rehab him and flip him
