oh okay, well I am framing this more like "how many years can these guys go and still help this team win big".
As veterans they will help too, obviously in that area of grooming those replacements. This has been a huge hole in the Chiefs over the past decade, is that there have been so few talented draftees that could have been groomed by veteran players such as the OL Vermeil assembled, etc. Bowe had Eddie K for his guy, but that was about the end of it.
Also, we will see prolonged careers in skills positions because of the pussy changes Goodell made.
