If there's an opportunity to upgrade any position on the Chiefs roster, they should absolutely perform their due diligence and make that move. Behind Belcher and DJ there's no one that can step in and play at a high level.
As I said earlier, I find it unlikely the Chiefs will find a player the caliber of Ngata or Raji this offseason, and something has to be done to greatly improve the interior of the front seven.

This team doesn't need Ngata to greatly improve it's NT situation. Soliai would be a massive upgrade. Franklin would be a great addition. Hell, Powe in the draft would be. Further, there are always under the radar guys out there that can bust out if given a chance. I'm not looking for a perennial pro-bowler (again with the straw-men), I'm simply looking for a NT that is actually built to play NT.
That alone will make a massive difference in the defense and will let us see what we truly have in Belcher. I think we'll be very happy with it.
