I'd be utterly shocked if the Chiefs aren't paying out one of the top 3 free agent contracts to a LT come the signing period. Not going to claim I know who it'll be, and it very well could end up being a Dan Moore or Garrett Bolles. If it is, I'll rejoice in glory because we have drastically upgraded the LT position. I don't care who they decide on, just get them in here.

There’s an opportunity cost to every move NFL teams make.
The Chiefs invested big on the IOL, which mostly has worked.
The Defense cost Mahomes a Super Bowl when he had his best offense in 2018. That’s mostly been fixed with a huge investment at all levels.
We’ve seen the Chiefs draft a WR in the top 2 rounds in last 3 drafts. 2 are home runs and 1 is a dud. Chiefs have also made several smaller moves at WR too.
It’s hard to blame the team for Mahomes ending Rice’s season. That alone would’ve been a major addition.
So really, I think there’s 1 key spot that the Chiefs haven’t done enough: LT. Which, to be fair, hasn’t stopped the Chiefs from going to the last 3 Super Bowls and winning 2 of them. That’s the greatest 3 year run in NFL history.
