A mock 2025 offseason template, here.
1. The Chiefs threepeat.
2. The Chiefs re-sign Humphrey, Bolton, and Butker to good money.
3. The Chiefs re-sign Wentz, Watson, Wharton, Cochrane and Winchester to smaller money.
4. The Chiefs let walk: Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Marquise Brown, Noah Gray, Irv Smith, Trey Smith, Mike Pennel, Derrick Nnadi, Malik Herring, Nazeeh Johnson, Justin Reid, Deon Bush
That puts the roster at:
QB: Mahomes, Wentz
RB: Pacheco,
WR: Rice, Worthy, Watson, Moore, Toney, Remigio
TE: Kelce, Wylie
LT: Suamataia, Morris
LG: Thuney, Caliendo
C: Humphrey, Nourzad
RG: Nourzad
RT: Taylor, Morris
DE: Danna, Thompson
DT: Jones, Wharton
DT: Lovett/Farrell
DE: Karlaftis, Anudike-Uzomah
WLB: Tranquill, Jones
MLB: Bolton, Tranquill, Cochrane
WLB: Chanel, Cochrane
CB: McDuffie, Williams, Watson, Jones, Hadden
S: Cook, Conner, Hicks
K: Butker
P: Araiza/Rehkow
LS: Winchester
In free agency, the Chiefs pick up another mid-level WR who wants a one-year rental to drive up his value like JuJu and Hollywood.
Chiefs could ostensibly use their draft picks like this:
1st: DE
2nd: DT
3rd: WR
3rd: RB
4th: TE
5th: S
And then four 7ths that they can toss away and trade for depth pieces over the course of 2024.
Just, a really good spot that Veach has the roster in.
