While Gaines isn't likely to return, it would be surprising to see them give up on a guy like Acker, who will likely play for Vet Minimum. If Revis finds the Fountain of Youth in 2017, it wouldn't be surprising to see him stick in 2018.
Veach will need to draft extremely well and make trades like he did this year for the Chiefs to be competitive in 2018, especially considering their most recent 2-8 run.

Yeah, I can see that.
Thing is, they were only a few plays from it going either way in a lot of those games, as bad as they played. Very easily could have been 4-2 thru it, or even better.
I don't think it'll take a lot to turn around the defense but what they need, isn't easy to find. An OLB that isn't shit, another DL or 2 and a corner.
A lot of it is going to have to be guys already here improving and or continue to play well.
