2019 Free agency Thread

[O.city]

We don't really have one of these yet, so figured we could use this as a place to discuss potential free agent acquisitions and what we would like to look for them to bring in.

If any of you guys are interested, heres a good place to do some research.

Allen Bailey had done jack squat his entire career. He broke out in 2014 (last year of his rookie deal) and then signed a pretty fair extension with no offseason hassle (happened during the year).

There's always a chance for redemption. If Kpass becomes a contributor and eventually signs an extension that fairly resembling value he brings to the team, then fans will stop shitting on him.

PFFFFFFFFFFFFF..........

Lmao he costs less than Sorenson. If he stays healthy that's a steal on a one year prove it deal that doesn't affect next years cap.

Those are the kind of moves we need to make.

After the press conference it sounds like there are going to be a lot of moves coming. Not sure what but they'll do something.

If he doesn't stay healthy (and it's most likely he won't, given his history) you're basically flushing $4M down the toilet. No thanks.

You’re exaggerating. It’s a one year deal at a minimal cap hit, 3.6M is a drop in the bucket. If he gets hurt, he walks at the end of the year. Big deal

Veach says the cap space and picks have them in position to be very aggressive.

I think everything is a possibility right now.

Sorenson actually plays football.

You're advocating the Chiefs spend nearly $4M of their cap on a guy who tears an ACL taking a shit.

"If he stays healthy"....that's the biggest, riskiest "IF" in the league.

Nearly $4M is not a "drop in the bucket" for a team with limited cap space and needs everywhere.

Blowing that on a player that has NEVER been healthy.

NEVER. And that's not even an exaggeration.

@BKSportsTalk: The top CBs remaining on the market:

Ronald Darby
Bryce Callahan (slot)
Darqueze Dennard (slot)
Morris Claiborne
Bashaud Breeland
Brian Poole (slot)

In other words, it's Ronald Darby or bust for the #Chiefs.

I'd rather gamble that money on someone who actually plays football.

4 mil is 4 mil.

Sign someone who will actually play.
