2019 Free agency Thread
We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.
If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research. https://overthecap.com/ |

Why would you tag him if you don't intend to trade him OR sign him? There isn't a single Chiefs franchise player in the last 20 years (that I can find) that walked. They all either signed or went to another team.

Nobody was pounding the table for Jones harder than me. I got laughed at for calling him a top 15 talent. |

Also, I don’t hate Ferguson and I’d be on board if he made it to the 2nd. I just don’t see the athelticism or bend of a 1st round edge rusher. I also think he’s a better fit at SDE where I think Speaks will flourish. |

ah. Right on. Anyway, I like Ferguson. I think he's a more athletic Hali. Hali just kind of had that one rush, but was high motor about it. I think Ferguson moves better, with more lateral agility while still having that power and bull rush as an option.

Fair enough; I think he's a little better than you do. And with Jones next to him, I think you might end up wanting a little beefier guy there than a strictly speed/edge guy as the answer for an opposing offense will be to run right at them.
Agree on Speaks, I think he's going to do well at LDE. |

I skimmed through this all I'm gonna say is if this team pays 37 million dollars for a season of Houston and Ford that is an epic fail.
