Right but will a TE in the late 3rd or 4th be as valuable to the Chiefs as a defensive lineman or ILBer?

A potted plant is better than Gaines.
We could have signed one to a 1-year deal for a lot less than Amerson.

84 hasn't dropped a pass from Mahomes yet. we need to draft Defense.

I would be surprised if Veach lets KPL go. He’s clearly going for speed and youth and that is exactly what KPL provides. He’s one of the most athletic ILB’s in the league at 26. I just don’t think you find that kind of player in the draft in the late 2nd rd or later.
I’m happy with Ragland, KPL and Eligwe (who I really liked when I saw him).

I have a feeling that if Veach spends any money next month, it will be on the DL. It’s only Bailey, Jones and Nacho from last years squad. That’s it (Justin Hamilton is fodder IMO). And at this point, Bailey might see his way out of town.

If I’m looking for an immediate impact at a position of need, I’m looking for a versatile complete TE.

I'm all for drafting a TE, but if we do its going to be pretty late, thus more of a project.

I just don't think that's necessary at all and IMO, it's a luxury the Chiefs can't afford.

I mean, if Alex Smith can throw for 4,000+ yards in 15 games with Hill, Kelce, Hunt, Conley, Wilson, et al, shouldn't Mahomes be expected to throw for at least 4,500+ with the same cast of characters?

I don't want the Chiefs to take a Left Guard in the 2nd or 3rd round but that's a much, much bigger need than a 2nd/3rd TE, IMO.

Mahomes will throw 30 tds this year. He will eclipse all Alex stats. Book it.

I wouldn’t consider drafting any offensive players on day 2.

I think we could buy low on a guy like Virgil Green who is a good blocker, something we desperately need.

I’m fine with going defense heavy, but DL is the one position we have got to fill next month. I don’t expect any drafted DL outside of the top 50 picks to come in and start day 1. They can absolutely be a rotational guy year 1, but the truth of the matter is we are very thin at the position and lack talent. We really need to add some beef up front and get a couple guys who are ready to start week 1.

Ideally I’d like Veach to sign 2 DL next month and draft another in round 3. At this point I’m really liking our options for a safety in rd 2.

Really don't see a need for a TE at all. Those 3 TE sets were largely ineffective after teams got some film on them. TEs don't make teams win Superbowls. Kelce is good enough that the rest of the TE position should be an afterthought.

Couch-Potato 02-17-2018 02:43 PM

Seems like a good signing for the price, hopefully he performs to his potential and we still grab a star CB.

Smith is gone, let it go. Everyone complained because AlexFans brought him up in every thread yet you keep doing it now that he's gone. smh

We need a TE and a WR in FA or the draft. Defense is definitely the priority this offseason though.

No way should we waste a high pick on a ****ing back up tight end.
