We need to replace about 20 personnel on the cheerleaders squad.

Lt insurance makes sense. But top priority should be to save up for future contract obligations.

Makes me wish we'd have held onto Gay at his price point. That athleticism was a big deal at times.

I’d bet we sign a vet running back after cuts.

I know DT is basically the same that it was last year, and I know the team thinks way more highly of Nnadi than most of us do, but... ehhhhhhh
Behind Jones, who sometimes splits out to end, we've got: Wharton (unspectacular, okayish, basically there as rotational interior rush) Nnadi (when he's good, he's serviceable as a nose, but when he's not? Blech) Pennel (33 years old, ideally won't be counted on much during the regular season) Omenihu (only rotationally, and again does interior rush stuff, also coming off his injury) Farrell (JAG) Dickerson (JAG, and pretty much sucks) Lovett (hopeful he can contribute, but doubt he'll be reliable) Gubner (probably practice squad material) Basically, we're counting on Lovett being able to not only make the roster but play some meaningful snaps on our rushing down rotation, because I'd really like to save Pennel as much as we can for the playoffs. Again, I know the Chiefs aren't worried, because that's technically more than they were rolling with into camp last year at this time. I just... I'd like more. |

When you have Mahomes, Kelce, Jones, et al, you play for now - not later. If we have $$, spend it to shore up LT, RB & another DL.

That said, you don't just spend for the sake of spending. The right player has to be there. And honestly, I'd love to use some of that space to get extensions done on those guys that we need to take care of next season. But I think the rapid rises in the cap going forward are going to keep most players from extending early unless you're willing to blow the market apart to do so. Now Creed can/will and probably SHOULD re-set the market. So I'm a little puzzled as to why that one's not done yet. |

I'm assuming Veach has some 1-year deals he's planning on handing out to a LT, RB and possibly a DT. Still some guys out there, just no way I see them sitting on that much space. They'll spend $8-9M of it before all is said and done is my guess. |
