That’s crazy money for Jackson coming off injury. Yikes.

Opposing offenses will run right at him repeatedly

Dave Gettleman is going to get fired if they suck again. He's trying to save his job here.

He shoulda been fired the moment he suggested drafting Danny Dimes.

Or after this embarrassment.

Melvin Ingram's visit was pushed back tomorrow due to problems with travel logistics, according to Jeremy Fowler on Twitter.

Hopefully that's truly the case, but I can understand fans feeling skeptical and that he'll all of a sudden end up signing elsewhere before he even visits here. It's been that kind of offseason.

Chiefs Twitter is filled with morons right now.

Lol people are ****ing ridiculous. We’ve become a very entitled fan base. It’s like spoiled kids who didn’t get everything they wanted on Christmas.

You mean there’s a chance that we don’t win every Super Bowl for the next 20 years? Veach needs to be fired!

That's true, I think it's just the nature of Twitter and fans in general. I'm sure there are plenty of fans calling for Bill Self's head after last night's KU game, for example.

People convinced themselves that Mahomes had made us a destination spot...it hasn't.

I don’t necessarily agree with this either.

All things even (money) the Chiefs are still a “destination spot”.

Yes it has. You’re not going to get every single FA just because you have Mahomes, but it definitely helps. Thuney had several suitors and he and his agent elected to pursue negotiations with the Chiefs because of the setup there. Williams was damn close but he loves Shanahan and they ultimately offered more money anyhow.

Money is still the top thing, but Mahomes and Reid are a huge difference maker. Kyle Long wouldn’t have left Vegas and signed here if not for them.

The main difference, as Veach has previously mentioned, comes with player retention. It’s the guys who have been there and experienced the culture who are going to be much easier to keep around, perhaps for less money at times.
