The roster as it stands
My 2022 Game 1 roster guesses:
QB - Mahomes/Henne/Buechele RB - CEH/McKinnon/Pacheco FB - Burton WR1 - MVS/ Hardman/Watson WR2 - Juju/Moore/Fountain OR Coleman TE - Kelce/Bell/Gray/Fortson RT - Wylie/Christian RG - Smith/Caliendo C - Humphrey/Reiter LG - Thuney/Allegretii LT - OBJ O = 26 LDE - Karlaftis/Danna LDT - Nandi/Wharton RDT - Jones/Saunders RDE - Clark/Dunlap WLB - Bolton/Harris MLB - Gay/Carter SLB - Lee/Chenal LCB - McDuffie/Fenton/Lammons RCB - Sneed/Williams/Watson SS - Reid/Cook FS - Thornhill/Bush D = 24 ST Butker Townsend Winchester PTW- PS Crum - PS Franks - Release Ealy - Release Fleet-Davis - PS Jones - Release Gore - PS Powell - PS Gordon - Release Kinnard - PS Niang - IR Bootle - PS Key - Release Barcoo - Released Johnson - Released Anderson - PS Kaindoh - PS Just trying to keep up....makes it a little more clear to be able to see needs/wants QB - Mahomes/Henne/Buchele RB - CEH/Jones/Gore/Pacheco FB - Burton WR1 - Hardman/MVS/Coleman/Dieter WR2 - Juju/Moore/Gordon/Powell/Fountain TE - Kelce/Bell/Gray/Fortson RT - Niang/Wylie/Christian/Kinnard RG - Smith C - Humphrey/Reiter LG - Thuney/Allegretti LT - OBJ/PTW LDE - Karlaftis/Danna LDT - Nandi/Wharton RDT - Jones/Saunders RDE - Clark/Kaindoh WLB - Harris/Chenal MLB - Bolton/Carter SLB - Gay/Lee LCB - Fenton/McDuffie/Bootle/Watson RCB - Sneed/Baker/Williams/Barcoo/Johnson SS - Reid/Key/Cook FS - Thornhill/Bush/Anderson Salaries in the spoilers

Wylie is the starter over Niang at this point. And probably will be.
Man those WR's and DE's are trashed |
Quote:
Yea not tryin to get too crazy over depth - other than the obvious - more about who we have at what position |
I’m not even sure Niang plays at all next year.
|
Need a young WR, a starting CB, a veteran DE with pass rush ability, and a young DE in the draft. Get all those and this team is better than last years team on paper.
|
Man those DEs.

Weird how removing Hill makes all the non-bolds looks meh..
QB - Mahomes/Henne RB - CEH/Jones/Gore FB - Burton WR1 - Hardman/MVS/Coleman/Dieter WR2 - Juju/Gordon/Powell/Fountain TE - Kelce/Bell/Gray/Fortson |
I think Hardman, MVS, and JuJu is pretty damn exciting.
|
Quote:
|
What are the biggest needs? Maybe something like?
- 2 DEs - WR - CB - RT - DT - LB - S Not all "needs" but a lot of areas where we have both mediocrity and not loads of depth, or one or the other. |
I'd be willing to wait for Jameson Williams to get healed.
|
If nothing else changed, that’s an 11 win team already.

Then fill in the defensive blanks....CB/DE/DT/LB/S. They are definitely taking a WR in the first IMO...Veach has shown he's all about getting Mahomes top offensive talent. It's a no-brainer opportunity with this many picks. |

SD - WR Allen/Williams/Guyton TE Everett RB Eckler LV - WR Adams/Renfrow/Edwards TE Waller RB Jacobs Den - WR Jeudy/Sutton/Patrick TE Okwuegbunam RB Williams Vegas is good till you look at the QB. Denver has a good QB and a couple of receivers SD is probably the most complete team in the division. But I'd take Kelce over any of those TE and Mahomes obvs JSS over Williams/Renfrow/Sutton Hardman/MVS over Guyton/Edwards/Patrick We lack a true #1 and a scary RB - Jones might help - but idk |
I swear.....the last time I saw so much whining and complaining here about offseason moves was the year we traded for what some said was a washed up and not that good running back from Baltimore.
|
Quote:
I would take Ekeler over any of our RBs and that includes Jacobs as well. Ekeler is the current day MJD who has surprised everyone! Denver's WRs WILL produce NOW because of Russell, but it will take 1/2 to a whole season to get that chemistry down though. JSS compared to Williams/Sutton is a wash for me. |

I'm surprised more people aren't seeing trading up for a WR as a good option. I might not hate getting a DE if it's Jermain Johnson. But it feels like a priority is getting one of the top 6 and using the rest on defence.
I know we all believe Mahomes can drag a mediocre WR group to decent results - but how much do we want to test that? We KNOW this team with elite receivers is deadly even with a turd defence - and frankly the defence punched aboved its weight a fair bit the second half of last year anyway. They'll be ballers at WR in rounds 2, 3 and beyond but I'm tempted to take the guessing out as much as possible. Our DL is so bad that just about anyone we then bring in through other picks improves it imo. |
Quote:
They're obviously a lot worse than LV and LA. Denver is the closest and each of their two top WRs had more yards than all 3 of of ours despite having Lock and Bridgewater while our WRs had Mahomes and Rodgers throwing to them. They also have Jeudy who got injured but is better than all of our WRs. |

Juju lost his juju after his breakout season. MVS has blistering speed and a legit deep threat, but there’s a reason Rodgers didn’t target him much. Veach was really reaching when he signed those two. As it stands, we lack any true threats in the passing game. Gonna make it easier to contain Kelce, and our running game isn’t going to help. The elite WR in this draft won’t be available at the bottom of the 1st round. What’s Allen Robinson up to these days?

We could have two beasts inside and take our golden boy pass rusher next year after reloading depth this year with all the picks... |
I think we can address the DE in the 1st and a burner WR in the 1st or a high 2nd. I am concerned more about the secondary. Another OT would be nice since Niang probably won't be back until after the start of the season and I wonder just how far along the Prince is. With 8 picks in the 1-4 rounds, we should be able to pick up some depth. I don't think we should be spending that extra cap money like drunken sailors unless it's just 1 year deals.

We'll likely have enough capital to field a decent offense. And Mahomes will certainly be good enough to keep it productive and on a winning track. But what we lose when we lose Hill is slack in the rope. No more https://c.tenor.com/MIS4gzwO6WMAAAAC...rlie-kelly.gif "Oh, . . . BOO HOOO!!! We're down 20 points in an important game. . . well how about [hiiiya!! Judo chop!!] - . . . 21 points in 3-4 minutes to end the half." "Enjoy your halftime deficit you worked so hard for, suckers!!" - - - Now, a 20 point deficit might be enough to bury us for good most games. So we got to hope we don't get so many of those, or even to have a game plan to get early leads instead. It's a little more than zigging, when they thought we'd zag, . . it's a paradigm shift. So now it's our duty to be hopeful they assemble something. |
Hopefully there are two badass edge rushers left at the end of the first round, at least one.

They went from 27 to 10 for Mahomes and gave up 1st, 1st following year, and a 3rd. 2 firsts this year probably gets them 8-10. |
I really like this roster and think with the draft, it is really going to be looking good.
Below I am showing the Chiefs roster along with their contracts. Also added within each position group, a draft slot that we have and what the Chiefs MIGHT be able to draft with that position.
