Ok I would also say to cut Cassel as well to save on money. There is no sense in having that much money in 2 QB's if you are going to resign Orton.
In the draft take the following:
1st: Peter Konz - C Wisconsin - Solidify the Center of the line
2nd: Markelle Martin - S Oklahoma State - Fill in for the junk Chiefs dumped above
3rd: Doug Martin - RB Boise State - Takes Jones Carries
4th: Nick Foles - QB Arizona - Orton is 1st string and let Stanzi and Foles battle it out
5th: LaDarius Green - TE Lafayette - Come on you know a TE is going to be taken
6th: Ryan Martin - OT Colorado - Right Tackle taken here
7th: Max Gruder - ILB Pittsburgh. - Special teams
On to Free Agent signings: I gathered this information here
http://www.footballsfuture.com/2012/fa/dl.html
NT - Paul Soliai - currently with Miami. 28yrs old 6'4 355 lbs
TE - Visanthe Shiancoe - Currently with Minn. Need a target to give Moeaki some rest.
OT - Unknown but a stop sign is better then Richardson
Other signings:
Look for some special team players that might have to be replaced since there could have been some dumped from the above cuts.
Note: This is all Conservative, no trade up for a QB which I just don't think the Chiefs can or will do. Center is greatly needed to support a run game and Safety got exposed all year with no Eric Berry. I am unsure if these players will actually be there in those rounds but I used the
http://drafttek.com/new%20simulator/ and they were all within 2 to 3 picks of KC. The simulator had the Chiefs at #10 though so I think it is a bit older.
The FA thoughts were this. I didn't follow Soliai out of Miami but figured 355lbs of meat should at least look like a NT that the Chiefs haven't had. Swap him out with Powe for a breather. Still don't understand why Powe wasn't used more just to see what he had. The whole Haley thing is just disturbing on why players were and weren't played.
Just my .10 Cents
