It's cool though. It's not like I don't expect it. I do appreciate you explaining parts of this to me though. |

No I don't think the Chiefs would keep all of them much like the Steelers and Colts have walked away from a ton of players they'd have to choose.
It would also depend how close they are FA's to each other, if the Chiefs have all 3 of them come free in the same year and they all expect huge signing bonuses someone won't be back. |

The Hunts pissed away huge portions of their fortune. They still make oodles off the Chiefs, and every NFL team makes money (unlike MLB or the NBA) due to the TV deal, but small market owners are always more judicious with their spending.

For example, the Steelers draft well, the Giants draft well....the Steelers always walk away the Giants keep all their guys, the market size is why. |

Another thing that hurts the Chiefs is Clark's personal wealth. Its no where close to alot of the owners at all. Its not like the Bengals or Cardinals, where the family's whole wealth is the football team but its not far behind.

And they ALWAYS have solid LBs to replace guys. That's why they let a guy like Foote walk. THey have Lawrence Timmons waiting in the wings. |

Joey Porter is better example than Foote.
And Roethlisberger was pissed they let Burress walk. |

Plax didn't exactly sign a monster contract with the NYG. 6 years and $25MM really chased the Steelers away? I thought they were basically just tired of him.

The Steelers are kind of cheap to be honest with you...I can think of 3 guys they've basically paid ever.
And James Harrison bitched and moaned for months before they finally paid him. |
