I personally think Pollard is becoming a better player, but if that's not your cup of tea, then Morgan has pretty good upside. And then you have guys like Rudi Niswanger, Tyler Thigpen, and Herb Taylor, who aren't fit to be starters, but they're very solid guys to have as backups. Keep in mind, again, that these are players only 1-2 years into their development. Most players don't click until about the 3rd year. That is not a bad foundation to be built in 3 years of drafts where the team spent almost nothing in free agency.
Add in that you have guys like Derrick Johnson and Demorrio Williams, who are solid guys at LB, who still have a lot of gas in their tank.
This team has a much better young foundation than they get credit for. Some of that was dismantled only because of a complete shift in defensive philosophy.

God you grade on a curve.
DeMorrio Williams is not a solid player. He's not even close. He's a fringe player at best.
Jarrad Page can't tackle. Leggett had about 3 good games, and Dorsey doesn't even have a position anymore.
Mike Cox a very good player? Since when? You like to throw around the very good label like it's a common thing.
My god. I'm done arguing with you.
You want to know who has a core of really good young players? Look at the Chargers, Falcons, Cardinals.
In terms of foundation, the Chiefs probably have one of the worst in the NFL.
