man, nobody's saying we're set.

But as you've said yourself, it doesn't look like there's a sure-fire #1 type elite corner in this draft.

There's also not one in free agency; so much so that medicore guys like Steve Nelson got big contracts.

Everybody keeps saying, "trade for Patrick Peterson!" But The Cards aren't shopping him. Or Ramsey. So that's all pie in the sky bullshit.

I think as a rule I would draft at least one CB in the first 3 rounds every year, no matter what because the position is so expensive to man.

I just think you're beating a drum and scoffing at people who aren't really disagreeing with you so much as saying, "yeah, well, what else can we do about it but draft a guy or two?"

Byron Murphy is the only CB in this class that is capable of being a #1 corner and even he is questionable.

There aren’t any shut down caliber corners available no matter how much you scream for Veach to get one.

In a press man heavy scheme, I think Greedy would have a shot to be a true shutdown guy. But I don’t think that’s where KC is headed.

I agree. I think they'll play a LOT of zone.

Nelson got a big contract? I don't think he did as well as he was expecting.

The general theory is they're probably fine with the current group of cb's and well they aren't.

general theory from who? I don't think that's a consensus at all.

I think the overall offseason thus far has put us in a situation where we don't have to reach for any position out of desperation, but I don't think anyone's satisfied at CB, or DE, or LB, or OL, or WR, or TE.

It's also true that NO team is full of top flight talent and depth at all positions. We're not in terrible shape, but we need to upgrade talent and depth at a lot of positions. There are question marks. That is true of any team in the league, though. Acting like it's some KC specific shortcoming isn't realistic.
