KC is never going to attract the top level FAs because the money is not there, nor is the media coverage. We should be looking to shore up positions of need with solid players not marginal players like Tavares Washington, Pat Thomas or Brian De La Puente or the other rejects who didn't even make the team.

We should never have let Jared Allen get away.

KC could attract top tier FAs - depends on who, how much, and what the GM's vision is for building the franchise. There's no one-size-fits-all situation.
