You have Greene, Caldwell, Loadholt set st 3rd round pick.
You have Cushings, Johnson, Loadhalt set at 2nd round pick.
You have Peppers, Gross, Dansby/Vilma/Scott, McDonald in free agency.
You have Curry as first round pick.

Just how many draft picks do you have in your fantasy world? You don't think any of those FA's are gonna cost us a draft pick?
Gross AND Peppers? no way possible they will Franchise tag one of them for sure.

Dorsey is NOT a NG. He doesn't have the size. Dorsey is also Not a 34 DE. He doesn't have the ability to contain on the edge.

Hali cant play a 34 DE. He's too small.

Carr and Flowers are ill suited for man to man coverage. They were drafted for the Tampa 2 because they are exceptional zone players with a safety behind them.

Page is ill suited for a 34 safety. His pass rush is too slow, especially from 7-10 yards deep, and hes a hitter, not a tackler.

I don't have to "try" to disagree. In order to do what you are suggestijng the Chiefs would have to have 4 first round picks (3 to trade one to spend), at least 5 second rounders (3 to spend 2 to trade), 3 third round picks to spend, and of course 90Million in cap space to pay the players.
Not to mention you are putting together a personnel group that can rush the passer from the LB spot, but can't cover the WR's man to man, won't have the size to pinch the picket on the line of scrimage, and won't be able to cover man to man deep middle at the safeties.

Come on Texas Chief... The guy was just excited about adding a new coach and building through the draft. Why'd you have to go and ruin his plan with things like facts and logic?

its not totally impossible, the chiefs would get draft pix for LJ and tony gonzalez. and if they don't franchise peppers, the chiefs wont have to give up any pix. and if they do franchise him, there's no way the chiefs would give up the pix for him. p.s. who is McDonald??

McDonald is Sean McDonald. An underaprecciated slot reciever.
