And his run defense stinks.

If the Chiefs upgraded both OLB spots I would be for it. If they upgraded one of them, I'd be ok with that provided they get a good passrusher and Tamba rushes on the other side, fine. They must upgrade at least one spot with a good passrusher if they want to make some strides on defense.
Problem is, if they do that, you're probably still looking at Mays and Williams starting at MLB. Which is I think an even bigger problem than Tamba against run defense. That's what I was alluding to in my previous post.

And they still need a NT and at least one safety.

And they still need 3 or 4 (starting) offensive linemen, a starting wide receiver and I'd guess at least one running back.

Which is a lot of stuff...
