3. The Chiefs resign TE Sean McGrath, LS Thomas Gafford, ILB Akeem Jordan, NT Jerrell Powe, OLB Frank Zombo and S Husain Abdullah to minimal deals.

4. The Chiefs let walk: OT Brandon Albert, OG Jon Asamoah, DE Tyson Jackson, S Kendrick Lewis, S Quinten Demps,

5. The Chiefs cut: CB Dunta Robinson, TE Anthony Fasano, RB, Cyrus Gray, and K, Ryan Succup.

5. Chief's restructure: Berry, Flowers, and resign Alex Smith so that he has a lower cap number in 2014.

6. Chiefs sign WR Jeremy Maclin to a 3-year, $15m contract, sign WR/KR Ted Ginn Jr for the minimum, DB, Javier Arenas, and K, Dan Carpenter.

The Draft:

1. FS Ha Ha Clinton-Dix

You are fu@king blind if can't see that FS is our biggest needs after our playoff loss. Dix is the perfect compliment to Berry, and would instantly help our secondary.

3. DE Ray Drew

Face it, if we let Jackson walk we must draft a defensive end. Drew is a natural five-technique defensive end.

4. TE C.J. Fiedorowicz, Iowa

Fiedorowicz isn't the speed guy that gets all of the attention in the NFL these days, but he is an excellent blocker and a huge target. Cutting Fasano made this a position of need, but it gives Smith a nice 1-2 punch at TE. At, 6'7" Fiedorowicz will give Smith a great short yardage and red zone target.

5. OT/OG Justin Britt, Missouri

A bit pie in the sky, perhaps, that Britt falls this far. But it is the NFL Draft we're talking about here.

Britt is a dependable shut down tackle for the Tigers, first team all SEC. However, he is not the gifted athlete that others will be.

6. OLB Aaron Lynch, South Florida

Pure athletic potential here. Long athlete, fluid and strong. Not terribly fast -- he's only a projected 4.8 guy and he looks every bit of it -- but I really like his length.

6. CB Nevin Lawson, Utah State

Lawson's a pure ball tracker -- great for press coverage, even though he is slightly small at 5'10". He's got speed to burn, however, and can be worth a gamble for a team looking for options beyond Sean Smith in the future.

7. RB De'Anthony Thomas, Oregon

Pure speed. This team needs as much of it as it can get.

Hmmm.
