Chiefs SHOULD we make any moves before the deadline? - Page 3

UChieffyBugger · 10-18-2019, 11:50 AM

When Pat went down and all hell broke loose, folks were thinking we'd be picking quite high in next years draft!!!

. But now the good news about the MRI has come through does Brett stick or twist where getting new players is concerned? I still say make moves. If we can get PP and maybe a line-baker or DT to give this defense a real chance to be decent by January then why not? I think defense and running the ball are more important than ever now.

I'd throw a late round pick or pick swap at s good front 7 guy with an expiring contract.

You know what the recipe for success was? Not putting Darron ****ing Lee on the field. Played 2 snaps last night!! Sorenson and Niemann got a majority of his snaps

Up until this game, we were still getting continually ****ed by Hitchens and Lee and their shitty tackling, and Wilson and Niemann aren't exactly making up for it even though they commit fewer mistakes.

If there were magically a ****ing amazing playmaking LB available for trade, that would be the best thing for this defense. Not a CB.

Totally disagree. I think a top CB would help this defense more than a top LB.

More important position and I like what I've seen of Ward si far but otherwise I am not fully convinced that the CB position on this roster is stronger than the LBs.

We are 10th and pass defense and 29th in run defense... DBs > LBs

Ragland got an opportunity to play finally and balled out. I’m not sure if a move is needed.

Yeah.. I still want pp..

It's funny, because I went on the record not too many days ago saying we needed a couple run-stuffing DTs and a solid run-stopping MLB. And then last night happened. Now I'm not so sure we need those guys.

Don't get me wrong; if Justin Ellis was 100% healthy, I'd want him on the team. If Clay Mathews were available and 100% I'd want him on the team.

And I thought our pass D was competent but not great.

But our defense just played the best game of the season. With all the guys we thought were no good.

If they play in a similar fashion against the Packers, I'm tempted to say we can ride with what we have.

What a difference a day makes . . .

The Hitchens number is interesting, because it shows that Spagnuolo really adjusted and mixed up his LB groupings for different situations.

Niemann - 34
Wilson - 33
Hitchens - 32
Ragland - 25

If Andy isn't going to utilize the screen pass plays quite a bit more w/ Williams and McCoy, I'm not so sure they are the right kind of backs we need for now. I'd see if we could get Miami to take a real low pick for renting Drake. I think he'd thrive in this situation.

Don’t trade any draft capital period.

MightyMouse · 10-18-2019, 05:30 PM

Can we please stop saying trade watkins. no one is trading for that contact. Seriously. Stop.

Buckweath · 10-18-2019, 05:36 PM

People think we dont need any addition anymore because of last night's game? Lol

A good CB would be great and also a LB to a lesser extent.

It is clear now that trading for PP will require a drastic overpay.

It seems like there are too many options.

Veach was supposedly aggressive to get Minkah Fitzpateick and I'm sure he was trying for Ramsey but it looks like it might be hard to get a good CB.

The Eagles also seem to be desperate for a CB.

**MahiMike** · 10-18-2019, 05:55 PM

We need OL help. Save the franchise and run it more. Would help Moore too.
