I know I'm stating the obvious, but I'm going to wait until after the draft to raise the alarm. Sure, they let some marginal starters go and we only have their understudies to replace them. I'd like to see what the roster looks like on the first day of camp.
You aren't going to get better at every single position every offseason. Sometimes you take a step back and there isn't an obvious free agent replacement or you aren't able to get the one you want. You go young or invite another player to prove himself.
I think that Reid and Dorsey realize that while last year was nice, the record was better than it really should have been and this team isn't remodeled yet. They aren't trying to add the last pieces to a super bowl team just yet. They are going to spend another offseason trying to deepen the roster and develop. I think they are correct in their judgement that this team isn't a player or two away so they are probably making sober choices and this year will be another development year.
There's going to be a lot of teeth-gnashing and wailing "fire everybody" on ChiefsPlanet when they don't win more games than they did last year, I bet. But the W column this year is probably a better barometer of where we are at than the W column last year was.
