I don't like getting rid of Maclin now. I was all for it next off-season but not now.
Despite what others are saying, this is clearly management reloading the team and preparing for Mahomes. The Chiefs aren't trying to "win now" with Alex. If they were, then they wouldn't have cut Maclin and try to replace him with Demarcus Robinson who Alex has to start all over with to gain rhythm.
If the Chiefs really needed money for the rookies, they could have let Albert Wilson walk and cut Demetrius Harris and been fine.
We will find out a lot when the QB battle is over. If Mahomes wins the backup job, I think it's entirely likely he could play at the end of the season ala Jay Cutler's rookie season.
