I’m really wondering who would fit that role.

Couldn't disagree more. The guy is on boo way an Alex Smith receiver. Alex required 2-3 yds of separation.

Conley is a big bodied 6'3" guy who ran a 4.35 40. He can be a drop threat, he's just want wasn't around for downfield Alex and Alex never looked to him unless he had to. He'll, Alex didn't ever seem to make it through his read progressions.

Mahomes seems indiscriminate. If you're open, you're potentially getting the ball, wether you're the 1st read or the last. Read the field really quickly post snap. Couldn't believe how fast his head snapped from one receiver to the next against Denver.

Watkins is replaceable.

I'm not sure it's a knock on Watkins so much as Kupp made him expendable. Guy showed up.

Agree. I believe Chiefs scouts or Veach(can't remember which) were also pleased with the depth at linebacker in this class.

It's just a matter of whether or not they see him as a long term solution.

B/c of Kendall, they could find themselves knowing what the Bears have offered to try and resign him up until this point. So they could have an advantage here in knowing what the Bears are willing to pay.

Well this shit is about to get derailed.

I'm probably leaning away from FA Corners. Re-sign Mitchell on the cheap, dip into the draft in round 3 where you should get some talent, go with a pool of Fuller, Amerson, Nelson, Mitchell, draft pick. Almost forgot about Lampkin too, didn't he get injured in the pre-season last year?

my primary goal would be an ILB and an OLB in FA now, plus a Dlineman

Meh.

We can find a starting CB in free agency. We can't find a starting ILB or OLB, and free agent starter DL are always a risky endeavor.

As it is, we're apparently going to add Lotulelei to replace Logan. There's just not much room to pay big money for a starting DL other than at NT, in which our options are pretty limited.

Kiimo 03-06-2018 05:56 PM

Does anybody have any faith in Star?

How is he going to be better than Logan who was also meh

I think the idea behind our interest is that he'll be cheaper.

For the DL, all I want is a NT. There's been a few probably affordable guys names mentioned, like Quinton Diall or Justin Ellis. I would start Bailey and Jones and look to draft 2 DL guys (one early, maybe 2nd round and one later) and let them grow into starting roles.

OLB is pretty meh in the draft and FA, but as it looks like we are starting Ford I'd just be looking for a comeback guy, Attaochu Trent Murphy or Okafor to fill in if Ford gets injured again and Kpass is still slow to develop.

ILB there's a few decent options in FA I think. The draft is so deep at corner, but I wouldn't be against a non-splashy signing at CB. I don't want a $10m+ guy.

O.city 03-07-2018 08:45 AM

Logan wasn't really a bad player, but for 8 million he wasn't near good enough.

Could get 80 percent of the player for 1 mil per or something.

You guys should probably get used to hearing about it and then them actually signing players like Star. Financially, that's about all they're likely to look at. Hope I'm wrong.

But even then, the best free agents are usually those that don't cost a shit load and outperform their deal.

Don't think they go after OLB in FA. FA is an inflated market. You're already paying Houston 20M and you're stuck paying Ford another 8.7M. You're definitely not looking to tie up even more at the position. OLB will either roll with what we've got, draft dev talent, or sign a short term role player.

CB is a candidate for FA. I hope not to go into the season with Amerson as a starter, unless they think he's a player in this system. There should be good CB talent available in rounds 2/3.

I think they draft an ILB. Maybe sign a guy to hold the gap, but ILB seems deep enough, and we could get a starter or effectual starter.

They seem focused on speed for receivers. Sep I assume talented fast WR and TE will be targets in both FA and the draft.

Basically, listening to Veach, I don't think they look for long term guys in FA unless they can land THE guy they want on 3-5 yr deals.

OL, no idea. Maybe both FA and the draft?

I want to keep Fulton as well, but I'm afraid that he's as good as gone. He's proved that he can start at center. That is going to make him cost more than the team will want to spend. They will likely let him walk and go back to Morse at center.

They should move Morse to guard and let Fulton play center. But I doubt they do.

Michael Bennett’s five-year tenure in Seattle has ended after the team has traded him to the Eagles, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Seahawks will also be sending a seventh-round pick, and will be getting a fifth-round pick and wideout Marcus Johnson in return.

The trade of Bennett allows the Eagles to cut Vinny Curry.

Curry is set to make $9 million, Bennett only $3 million.

Are the Chiefs really going to be in a position where they have a 4th stringer at ROLBer, again, this season?

I guess, if Houston is injured and Ford is healthy, Ford at LOLB makes sense but what do you do with Tanoh and Curry?

Wouldn't it just suck ****ing ass if Tanoh still isn't ready to compete or start at ROLB?

I'd put Curry on the DL in pass rush situations.

Other than that I'd play him at OLB across from Houston. I think Ford has 1 more year and I'm not relying on Tanoh at this point.

Yes it will suck if he isn't ready to contribute and can be added to the list of shitty picks.

Curry will be 30 years old in June and has 22 sacks in 6 seasons.

The more I've looked around, they're gonna have to give a big contract out to secure some of these spots. Plus, they've got the space coming up in a year and two years to do it.
I don't think I'd do it with Curry as he's a bit older than I'd want but they need to do something.

O.city 03-07-2018 01:44 PM

The Chiefs may not contend this year, but I want as many of the guys in here I think are gonna be around in 2019 as I can get and let it get going early.

This was always the problem with letting Mahomes sit a year. In this scenario, you're giving up 2 years of his cheap deal until you feel as though it's time to contend.

O.city 03-07-2018 01:51 PM

But the CHiefs are gonna be paying their starting QB peanuts, so it's time to start making some moves around him while he's cheap.

Cause if he hits it like CP think he will, he's gonna be expensive.
