What do you want the Chiefs to do with their FAs?

[pugsnotdrugs19]

This is an idea that's really been going through my head, especially with the Jah Reid re-signing. I think Reid may be provided some camp competition, but I believe they plan to start him next year. Which brings me to this question...

What do you want the FO to do with the rest of our upcoming FAs?

Roughly 31 million in cap space right now and 6 of that goes to draft picks. 25 million left, with potential to go up a couple million via cuts.

Personally, as of this day, I consider Berry, DJ, and Howard must keeps. These guys are playing at their highest levels and they don't have any true potential replacements on the surface. It will be costly to do so as well.

Then, I think if Tamba wants to truly be a Chief for life, you try to bring him back at a discount and hopefully Ford is ready to take over at least half the downs.

I think Marcus Peters' emergence and potential makes Sean Smith the most expendable of the class. If he can grow into the top 10, top 5 corner he can truly be, they need to save the cash here. (Though they likely won't have enough anyway)

Would also like to keep either Abdullah or Branch with the $ left at that point.

Keep in mind-- Kelce, Poe and Fisher are all due the following year and while Fisher will likely receive a 1st round tender for 2017, the other two will command nice contracts as well.

The Chiefs deep talent pool has created a nice problem, and one that fortunately we can wait a little longer to delve into as the 2015 season rolls along. Nonetheless, tough decisions are ahead and I'd like to see what different individuals want to take place.

In the meantime, go Chieeeeeeeeeeefssssssss

There has to be some balance, and Andy Reid is our coach.

This team is skating by because the vast amount of talent on defense, why not keep adding to a strength?

He's also the easiest peice to replace through the draft.

KC needs to invest heavily in O-line...which is stating the obvious. MLB is the only other position I see the team needing...and that is a "grooming" move. I'm not sure KC needs much on the skill positions...it will take a #2 WR at least a year to grasp the playbook.

Dorsey doesn't even need a draft pick nowadays. Just pick one off waivers or a UDFA like Ware or West.

Agree. Where we are going to be drafting we will be in prime position to take a RT.

Because Berry isn't as good as Charles....I dont think that's even up for debate. I DO however think losing him helped this team reevaluate how to use him...way too much of a crutch and stunted the passing game.

Think of it like this...if Denver had either Berry or Charles..who would you rather not see twice a year?

Allen doesn't fall into that category.

No he doesn't, so KC should really just pass. He's going to get at least 4 mil a year over 3+ years. There are desperate enough teams dumb enough to think he just needs to be in their conditioning program.

As for the O-Line, I think they seem set at letting Jah Reid be the Right Tackle. I'm wondering if they seem content with Frenchman and Fulton as the Guards and just anticipate both dudes just need more playing time.

Thats not the issue at hand though, this is about the better player for KC. You got a full dose of JC last year, and one of Berry this year, which one mad a bigger impact to the Chiefs and their success?

Jah Reid just got a 3 year, $10.2 mil contract to solidify tackle depth and can be a spot starter. Do you feel Jeff Allen isn't worth just as much if not more to this team than Jah Reid to supply essentially the same role?

It's pugsnotdrugs, not drugsnotpugs you moron. Literally do not understand what you are bitching about, and I'm not sure you do either.

Allen would easily get $4 million per as a full time starter at right tackle or left guard, if he had played at least 30 of the last 32 games.

The problem is that he's played in 11 of the last 30 games, many of which he couldn't finish.

Jeff Allen isn't worth anything on the bench.

I'd keep him if the terms are good, but are you willing to give the guy possibly 5 mil a year when he's good for missing a lot of games?

You keep JC....he's one of the best RBs I've ever seen. Now if Berry was the second coming of Ronnie Lott...or Ed Reed...he was billed as such but he's not at that level..getting paid like it though.

If KC decides to move Charles..there will be 31 teams inquiring.

The best thing about Dorsey is that he's always looking to upgrade the roster, regardless of the position.

Outside of Fisher and Morse, I don't think anyone's job is safe.
