Colts signed CB Kenneth Acker, formerly of the Chiefs.
Acker played 209 nondescript snaps for Kansas City last season and visited the Seahawks along with the Colts this spring. In Indy, the 6'/195 former sixth-rounder will provide depth should he make the final 53-man roster. |

Really hope they can hit on some CB's in the draft. Need some good young players out there.

Not that I really wanted to weigh in on this Reid thing, but from a business perspective, I would have thought the best things the Chiefs could do profit wise would be to win a superbowl. I doubt the Chiefs make it to the SB and people go "nah not watching it this year, Reid". Just sign the best players you can who fill your needs for the cap hit you can afford, almost everything else is irrelevant.

You can't draft 3 CBs when you also need a Dlineman, a guard and a safety if no free agent and when you could also use help at TE, WR, ILB and OLB. |
Team had too many needs to swing big money on a WR. This defense looks like shit right now.

The line is the same unit -Logan +X.Williams, who had a better 2017 per PFF. The linebackers are the same unit -DJ -KPL +Hitchens (I am not counting Tamba as he didn't contribute in 2017). DJ played okay but was starting to look his age. KPL is a JAG, Hitchens graded better than DJ overall. CB group is -Peters -Acker -Mitchell +Fuller +Amerson. This is the only group really taking a downgrade from the prior year as it stands, but I don't really think it's a huge step back. Acker, Mitchell and Amerson all JAGS. A quality draft pick would make me feel like this group is roughly the same as last year, rather than worse. Safety: -Parker +Golden +Berry. hard to see this as anything but a big improvement unless Berry is a shadow of his former self? There's holes and question marks, but I wouldn't say the defense is looking dire pre-draft. |

For this defense to be good enough in 2018, we really need to hit an impact player when we take a CB. Potentially need that at S as well but I don't see this defense being good enough if we don't find at least 1 more person to help this secondary next year. Even as good as our offense can potentially be, we need more help in that secondary. |

That's where Mike Brown is going to draw the line? Lol |

I will say I feel good about this defense. Veach needs to draft a top CB and a top DL with a safety and if two of these three perform decently, I do think the Chiefs defense can be a top 10 unit. Amerson, Ford, Kpassagnon, Williams are all kinda unknown but they all look like they can potentially give this team solid play. Not all of them will but I feel confident at least two of them will. |

Obviously you are going to have some people get injured in 2018, but then you don't know who will take a big step forward in 2018 either. |
Anyone out there still that's gettable and that would make a big splash?

Some quality names still on this list I found: http://nfltraderumors.co/top-2018-nfl-free-agents-list/
