Why would the Chiefs sign 30 year old Kyle Fuller when their M.O. has always been to draft and sign younger cornerbacks?
Hell, Breeland was a critical component to reaching the Super Bowl for the past two seasons and the Chiefs allowed him to walk at age 29 this season. |

I've also had this conversation with SNR: I simply value CBs more than the current coaching staff. Which is fine and all, but I refuse to trot out Sneed and a bunch of JAGs. It goes against my constitution. |

I don't see the Chiefs drafting two defensive ends early because it's highly unlikely either of those guys can be immediate starters on a championship team, especially considering they'll be drafting 31st or 32nd in each round. I think the Chiefs would trade for another DE before drafting one late in the first. And drafting two guys at the same position in the same draft early rarely, if ever, works out. Teams would be lucky to hit on ONE guy, let alone, two. That's a waste of valuable, cheap resources. |

But, two issues. The Chiefs have the fewest players under contract in the NFL in 2022. And filling that roster is going to cost coin. Bargains will be made somewhere, and a cheap, good player for 5 years makes the most sense for a roster hunting for live bodies. The second issue I alluded to above: cap space is going to be surprisingly tighter for this team going forward, even with the quickly rising cap. |

And we resign Remmers and Niemann?
I'd just start over. |

You're assuming either Hitchens or Clark will be cuttable.
It's still very early in camp, so none of us should make judgments yet, but Niemann is getting Sam reps over Bolton right now. And it's not remotely clear how we could let Clark walk and not have our passrush fall off, yet. |

Frank Clark is the 8th-highest cap hit in the entire league. He's gone after this season, he has to be. How you replace him is something you worry about when the time comes but you don't ****ing keep him just because you don't have anything better. |

2021: “How are we going to replace Eric Fisher AND Mitchell Schwartz?” Veach is a magician. Needless to say I’m not worried |
