I'm not altogether sure they aren't perfectly happy going into next season relying on Amerson and Murray. They might get competent vet help and draft some guys to compete and develop, but they sure don't seem worried about those spots like the fans to.
I think they are far more concerned about Bailey being inconsistent at DE, and the lack of a consistent NT presence and the effect it's having on Jones and the pass rush.
It looks like they are going to press receivers more this year to give Houston and Ford(who they're stuck with) an extra second to get to the QB. No team let the QB get the ball out quicker than the Chiefs last year. Changing that makes a huge difference.
If they move into the first round, it's for D line. I think it'd be Vea. Personally, I think he's much much better than Payne.

If they aren't bothered about safety and CB then why give Berry that contract and why trade for Fuller when it's been widely reported that there were some other decent deals on the table? The Peters trade is a unique situation Imo where clearly off the field stuff were why he's not a Chief anymore, It couldn't have been about his performances. Veach also expressed an interest in honey badger at his last press conference, so I'm positive that both of those areas will be addressed in due course. If we don't get someone like a Tre Boston, then I see us going after those positions In the draft.
