What would you put the odds he ends up in KC? We opened up enough cap space to land him...

And the contract Zach Brown just signed does him no favors. Frankly, I'm a little shocked by that deal.
A 1 yr deal for $2.3 million (with only $700K guaranteed) for a guy coming off a pro-bowl season doesn't do anything at all to help Hodges value.
He'd be lucky to see $1.5 at this point, IMO. Yeah, he's probably hoping for a post-draft deal but it's still not going to be a good one. Frankly, if the draft doesn't go how he hopes, he could end up looking at a backup job somewhere.
He'd be wise to get back on the horn with Dorsey and see if they can work something out. It's just too nice a fit for him here and even if it's only a make-good contract, there's ample opportunity for him to build market here.
