Nobody is going to spend FA dollars on areas where they don’t have a need. My point is this season may allow us to plug a few holes with 1 year gap players who think they will get more money next off season

My point is that guys are going to sign where they think they can shine. Being on a contender doesn't help them if they can't get on the field due to existing depth at their position.

In the end, being a contender is a wash vs. being a team that actually has a spot where a guy can actually capitalize on a 1-year deal.

Gonna be a cap bloodbath around the league.

The free agent market will be flush with offensive lineman and wide receivers willing to play for cheap 1 year deals.

There is absolutely no reason for Chiefs fans to panic about filling those positions, whether it's starters or depth.

I don't think you understand me.

Take the WR position, you don't think a FA WR would shine here on a one year deal with Mahomes? I'm talking about Free agents who you would put in your starting lineup. Basically any place you all want to spend a first round pick on is also a target in free agency. So DE, WR, OT (maybe).

I'm not talking #2 TE or rotational DT

Exactly

Agreed. Bart should be patient, knowing it's a buyer's market.

Not really, honestly.

I mean, what are they gonna do statwise? maybe 50 balls? 60?

There's only one football.

With all of the dropped passes last year, along with Sammy Watkin's invisibility cloak, I think it will be relatively easy to upgrade the #2 WR position this season, whether it's via the draft or free agency.

I mean, this offense really struggled late in the season because defenses were keying on Kelce & Hill and without CEH, the Chiefs had difficulty scoring.

If they can add at least one more legitimate weapon, this offense has a chance to match their 2018 output for sure.

Oh I think we can absolutely replace and upgrade Watkins' 37 catches.

I just don't buy that the top tier guys would want to take a cheap one year deal to be WR#2 here; it's not going to drive their price up next year, because no matter WHO it is, they're option #3 in KC. So yeah, 50 or 60 balls most likely.

That's not going to get them a big payday.

I would think we'd be looking for a younger guy that's maybe been underutilized but has the skillset to be an 'X'. That or an older vet just looking for a ring.

But probably not a top tier guy, his stats just won't make him money.

This is going to depend on the WR. This offense is supposedly very hard for players to pick up and normally takes 2 or 3 years to "shine" within.
