Pick 14 of KCs 21 Free Agents to Re-Sign

[kccrow]

I'm going to be doing a new mock up with who KC retains, who they cut, and who they sign with whatever money I end up with. You pick who they retain and who they cut from my polls. Pick 14 of the 21 free agents KC has in 2015... I'll use the top vote getters.

I think that some of you guys are forgetting that the Chiefs will have a 90 man roster through mid-August. There's no harm in signing vet minimum contracts because they don't count against the cap until the season begins and even so, it can be as low as 60%, not 100%. Depending on service, a $1 million dollar contract only counts around $600k towards the cap.

Plus, injuries can and will happen. It's better to have guys signed that have played in the system as depth.

Owens was decent in the first half of the season before his injury. It seemed like that's what happened to half our team. Injuries hit but they weren't serious enough to keep people out....just enough to kill their efficiency.

Ah, I was looking at this as who would I like on the team next year

Yeah, that's pretty much impossible at this point because the juniors have yet to declare, the Combine hasn't happened, no one knows who will be cut March 1st, free agency hasn't opened and the draft isn't until the end of April.

I just looked at it as "which guys should have a spot in the 90 man roster?".

How the hell does McGlynn have more votes than Linkenbach? Or any votes for that matter?

[Easy 6]

If they let Bowe go, keeping Avant is a no brainer IMO.
