What would be your perfect scenario to beef up the defense?
 

...let's just say they don't dump Cassel in the off season

Ya gotta improve the pass rush. OLB?

Get a NT that can actually play the position and a OLB that rushes the passer?

Akeem Ayers from UCLA in the 1st and Jerrell Powe from Ole Miss in the 2nd.

OLB and NT. Ayers is a perfect fit at Vrabel's spot. Not the greatest pass rusher but he can do it well enough to give releif to Hali. He can also cover. Powe is a protypical NT for the 3-4. Him and Shaun Smith would be a solid rotation.

Get Jamaal Charles more carries,then our D plays less.

Trade Pittsburgh D for D.

Draft Von Miller, not as good all overall as Ayers,but better pash rusher, which is what we need. And sign a true NT, as draft Ponder in the second, or draft Powe in the second if we are stuck with casshole.

Imagine if the Chiefs had drafted Orakpo over Jackson in 2009... blows, don't it?

Not saying Orakpo is the best, but definitely far better so far, and most likely forever.

He would have contributed a lot more right away.

Have all the other teams choose players with talent like Kolb instead of players with talent like Vick.

Where does your program have the Chiefs finishing at more than likely?

The problem with that is Ayers is the prototypical OLB these guys like where Miller isn't. Miller is a smallish 3-4 outside rusher where Ayers has the size these guys have always liked for their OLBs.

True but Ayers isn't a pass rushing OLB, which is why we wont draft him.

This, but I still think Studebaker has a good chance to fill that LOLB spot admirably if he ever gets a chance to get on the field. When he has, he has played very well.

Truth be told, the best way to help this defense is to add the necessary players on offense to be able to sustain drives.
