Is Incarncanted Bob still around? Feels like we're on the verge of posters freaking out early in free agency, and OTW smashing heads in. Just need IB to tweet some absurd shit to get the nostalgia train rolling [Reply]

I would wager you've probably seen no more than 5 minutes of Mooney in your entire life. Yet you seem to have a very strong opinion on what he is and isn't capable of.
And please, everyone, spare me with the mentions of MVS. We traded Tyreek late, late in the free agency period and needed to build back the WR corps. Options were few and far between and the Chiefs went the Moneyball route of trying to recreate Hill with pieces from the other receivers who were available, and MVS wound up as the deep ball threat, more by need rather than by choice.
The Chiefs aren't operating from that sort of disadvantaged place this offseason. [Reply]

I think everyone would like a chance to be a little better on offense. [Reply]

Which is exactly why they shouldn't pay $8-10M+ for the production Mecole and/or a draft pick can give you.
They still have Rice, Moore, Toney, Watson and Ross under contract.
Bring back Mecole and draft a WR, and save yourself that money. Or make a trade.
Yeah checking again and the Jags may have overpaid a little this year but not really. Gabe Davis got an MVS contract that’s only more bc of cap inflation. Same thing for Duvernay. That’s pretty much the cap inflated Juju contract we gave him 2 years ago, but with likely a team option for year 2
The WR market so far has been skull ****ed [Reply]

Last year after the Toney and Skyy busts we were all saying if only we had Hardman's numbers back we'd be fine.
Hardman is fine but just lacks so much football awareness. I actually feel like Davis is similar in that regard which is why I’m quite happy we didn’t go after him. [Reply]
