Offseason Forecast: Kansas City Chiefs

Offseason Forecast: Kansas City Chiefs

By Kareem Copeland
Around the League Writer

What's changing


With the offseason officially under way, Around the League will examine what's next for all 32 teams.

AFC East
» Bills | Dolphins | Jets | Patriots
AFC North
» Bengals | Browns | Ravens | Steelers
AFC South
» Colts | Jaguars | Texans | Titans
AFC West
» Broncos | Chargers | Chiefs | Raiders

Administration. Wave buh-bye to general manager Scott Pioli and coach Romeo Crennel. Say hello to GM John Dorsey and coach Andy Reid. The Chiefs went 23-41 under Pioli and are in the exact same position as the organization was when he was hired -- coming off a 2-14 season. Dorsey is a descendant from the Ron Wolf/Green Bay Packers front office tree. Reid is one of the most established coaches in the NFL with a strong offensive reputation.
Biggest free agents

» WR Dwayne Bowe: The wide receiver wants to be paid like one of the league's top receivers, but only sporadically plays like it. And then there's the attitude baggage.

» T Branden Albert: A legit starting tackle. Money could be the deciding factor because the Chiefs can easily replace him with the No. 1 pick.

» P Dustin Colquitt: The 2012 Pro Bowler has played in all but two games during his eight years in Kansas City.

» RB Peyton Hillis: The nearly 1,200-rushing yard, 11-touchdown effort in 2010 has to be considered a fluke at this point -- even if there have been injury issues. But the Chiefs need a bruiser to complement Jamaal Charles.

» DE Glenn Dorsey: Hasn't been the dominant force that earned the No. 5 overall pick at LSU, but has started all but three games in the last four seasons.

Other key free agents: QB Brady Quinn, G Ryan Lilja, LB Brandon Siler

Best of 2012: Kansas City Chiefs
Take a look at the best photos from the Kansas City Chiefs 2012 season.
What they need

Quarterback, quarterback, quarterback. Matt Cassel has proven himself unable to be the franchise guy in four years as the starter. He was hand-picked by Pioli to come along from New England and never blossomed into the player that went 10-5 as the Patriots starter in 2008. The problem: There are no sure-fire prospects in the draft and the free-agent pool is weak. Dorsey would have to trade for a Alex Smith or Kevin Kolb type if he's set on addressing the position this offseason. Remember, though, Dorsey was brought up in a draft-and-develop system.
Offseason crystal ball

The Chiefs will draft at least one quarterback, but not with the No. 1 overall pick. They'll possibly bring another in to compete with Cassel and the rookie. There won't be a quick-fix under center. Texas A&M tackle Luke Joeckel might be the guy at No. 1, especially if Albert is allowed to walk. There are six 2012 Pro Bowlers on the roster, so there's talent in K.C. But you can't get out the blocks in today's NFL without a legit quarterback. That's the No. 1 job for Dorsey and Reid.

I would love to have Kevin Kolb.

-Only as a backup
-Only if it didn't cost the Chiefs much $$ or picks

And neither will happen so....

I'd take Kolb, Alex Smith, or Foles under those conditions but like you said...

Pure fantasy.

Those guys are coming here to start.

they'd just come in for a visit, and see the sign "Eliminate Bad Football", and do an about-face while having an inner-monologue "well, shit. so much for that"

Why no mention of T-Jax. That dude needs to go just for the salary alone. If they let Albert go over money I will be extremely pissed, especially if they do that and use our #1 on a LT. Why the **** would you do that when you have more then enough cap space (more than enough once you get rid of T-Jax and Matty) to pay the man who you already know is good at his job?
