Drafting well and making those diamond in the rough signings are more important than cap space, IMO. The influx of talent is a prerequisite to retaining talent.

Dorsey had Ballard and Veach to work with. Now Veach will potentially be working with the 4th and 5th best guys in the organization. I wouldn't be thrilled if we fired Reid and had has number 3, 4, and 5 guy running the team.
Losing Dorsey and Ballard will, in all likelyhood, be a step back with our roster. Odds of Veach and 2 guys equally filling the Dorsey/Ballard/Veach roles is asking a lot. |

Drafts will be worse but there will be more ties. Clark will be happy.

Any GM can get lucky here and there. His consistency showed it wasn't luck...they had like five quality safeties in 2015. Chunt can go hang himself with his BS corporate tie persona....dude's a Goldman-Sachs indoctrinated phony. I can see through his helmet-hair attempt to appear as generic as possible.

It's gonna be interesting to see what happens over the next couple years and what direction the new GM decides to go.
Lots of prime contracts are coming due and tough decisions will need to be made to move on from some of the best players to ever put on a Chiefs jersey. |

Only 3 voters out of 62 feel that this will be good for our ability to identify and draft talent into the organization.
A pretty bad prognosis when you consider that this is how franchises are built. Apart from candy wrappers and ties, I mean. |

There's really no way to tell at this point. Sucks that Ballard isn't still in KC though. He would have been the obvious replacement.
One thing I do know, is Reid had some fairly deep rosters in Philly over the years. You can't win as many games as he did without drafting well.

Short term, we have a pretty good team in place. If the Mahomes pick turns out to be a home run... which I think it will... then the drafts can stay centered around filling the potential holes on the horizon/building around Mahomes. No reason at this point to think the draft has to go in reverse IMO.
