With Poe and Howard BOTH taking damn near 70% of the defensive snaps, we need a better defensive rotation to keep the guys fresh in the fourth quarter and the hopeful playoff run. If Butler's there, I'd have a hard time passing on him if I were GM. Obviously, CB is a bigger CURRENT team need. However, Poe could be a problem next year if he demands JJ Watt money. Damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

And I'm pretty sure Ford had a visit that didn't get reported through the media till after the draft. I think we might've had a visit with Peters too that also didn't get reported.

The Chiefs staff flew to Oakland to to speak with Peters and his family personally. It was well documented.

Precisely !!!

The good thing is there will be a damn good DL available in the 2nd with this years class being so deep. If one of the top corners is there you go that direction in the 1st, then take the best DL available in the 2nd.

If Jackson, Apple, and Alexander are all gone, there will probably be a stud DL available like Nkemdiche, Buter, Jones, or Robison.

Most of them don't get reported, so Butlers being the exception to the rule doesn't mean his chances of getting picked are any different.

I know. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about him visiting KC.

Jarraud Powers must be asking for a lot of money.

Gotcha... Then again, perhaps it's best Dorsey doesn't tip his hat to prevent somebody trading up on draft day. Regardless, I trust in his decision with his track record so far.

I frankly will be shocked if the Chiefs do not add another corner in free agency. This may happen after the draft, but no doubt there is a waiting game going on with the current tier of free agents. There are a few experienced options who could add depth or be stop-gaps in a pinch.

Cromartie, Hall, Powers and even Finnegan might have some value on short term, cheaper deals to name a few.

More visits at Arrowhead per Terez Paylor


UTSA DT Brian Price is visiting the #Chiefs today, I'm told.

Heard Akron OLB Jatavis Brown, Mich. St CB Arjen Colquhoun and Baylor OL Blake Muir visited the #Chiefs recently.

Considering that Smith has NB experience....I wouldn't doubt it if they draft a CB and call it good.

Smith?

You mean Jimmy Wilson?

Yep that's what I meant.

We desperately need another CB in the worst way. Playing safeties at CB is not what I want to see anymore.

Maybe take a page out of Denver's plan and draft a CB with your late first round pick to be your 3rd CB. But then again, it really does depend on what they think of Nelson.

I hope a 2nd round CB can help us so we have the versatility to pick another position round 1 (Vernon Butler or Paxton Lynch if he falls)
