Evans would be nice but who’d I’d go after is Diggs. He wants out and he was basically auditioning to become a chief last game with helping all chiefs players up after the play. Talked to KT for 15 mins before the game.

The “Chiefs had no salary cap room to sign Hopkins” crowd can’t reconcile that inconvenient reality.

We could’ve signed Nuke if CJ wasn’t holding the chiefs hostage

But they found a way to make Taylor the second highest paid RT in the NFL… long before CJ’s contract got resolved.

Veach prioritized supposedly “upgrading” the RT position… which didn’t happen… and terribly neglected the WR position in the process.

The pining that takes place around here is incredible, while the rest of the league would give their first born for Mahomes.

Well yeah because those other teams would have a WR for him to throw to...

Also,

Let not act like we couldn't have easily made Hopkins contract work

I can reconcile it. We prioritized protecting Patrick Mahomes and now he is the least sacked QB in the NFL.

Evans over Diggs anyday.

Are you dense? That money was allocated and spent, it was going to OBJ or Taylor, it wasn't free money unless you just want a rookie at LT and Wylie at RT. My god you guys are just plain delusional.

Mahomes has had a concussion, his knee turned sideways, a bad toe injury and an ankle sprain. Evidently folks suddenly forget about David Carr and Andrew Luck having their careers ruined by poor OL. Not to mention Tua having multiple concussions leading people to wonder if he should retire.

There's also been tons of QB injuries this year. Burrow, Lawrence, Jones, Rodgers, Cousins, Richardson, Watson.

The Chiefs tackles had the highest pressure rate given up last year. Mahomes was running for his life. It's like people conveniently forget that our OL got Mahomes hurt last year and our season was close to being done bc of them.

These people should watch the Super Bowl against TB again bc that's what bringing back Wylie would have done.

the revisionist history of some of our posters......

"We don't need him"

"Well it wouldn't have worked anyways"

I prefer Diggs over Evans but it ain’t much of a difference. Both are great players
