He was just cut by a team that paid him $9 million per year.

I'd do a 2 year, $10 million dollar deal with some incentives.

Yup. If he was cheap I wouldn’t be too jazzed about it, but a ****ing 2 down run stuffer just got $10 million avg.

This guy is getting paid by someone, but not us.

Yeah, if he'd go for it, I suppose that's fair but I just think it's super weird to cut a young player 1 year into a 3 year, $27 million dollar deal.

If there’s more to the story, Veach should be able to easily find out.

It's ****ing weird, man. He was a successful Right Defensive Tackle in a 4-3 scheme in New York, which is what led to the 3 year, $27 million dollar deal with $10 million guaranteed.

He walks away with $10 million while looking for another job.

Ballard is a dumbass. Simple. Sitting with the 4th most cap space at the start of free agency, and completely fails to bring in a single impact player, lets Melvin walk out the door to collect a 1 year deal for peanuts, he hasnt exactly been lighting it up in Indy.

Hankins would be great if we can swing it, it would open up the draft to BPA instead of need quite a bit

But as everyone knows D line free agency has been reeruned, so theres no need to cry a river if Veach cant land him on a reasonable deal... this guy isnt the end all be all, there will be serviceable players released during camp

It certainly appears that he's in over his head

We are in sub packages a lot, and plan to use them even more next year due to the offense scoring points. Why take Tanoh off the field? I want that mother****er in there at every opportune moment since he probably won’t play a lot of OLB due to Ford/Houston taking the majority of those snaps.

The guy is perfectly built to be like David Irving. Roll with the kid.

1st and 2nd down exist in football still. Our run defense was a disgrace last season. Teams will try to ball control against us. Theoretically playing with a lead is fine. Being competent and sound on defense is warranted, because things won’t always be in the Chiefs favor. The book on us is in the playoffs lately has been to gash in the run game and limit offensive opportunities.

I think the McDaniels situation ****ed him all up. That and he has a shitty owner.

Teams WILL control the ball against us. That's quite an effective way to stymie an explosive offense like we plan to be, and our defense the way it is just invites teams to do it.

Could be Irsay, as well.

NFLPA salary cap report has us at just over $15M in cap space. More than originally thought.

Not sure who that may or may not include.

Spotrac.com has us at $12 million.

Ideally, hope Veach can add both a FS and NT before the draft so we won't have to draft for need, but get at least 1.

Yep.

After everything's been allocated, they have the Chiefs at $4 million, which includes $5 million for the draft
