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.

What do u guys think?
They probably don't have the ammo to get to White and wouldn't need to trade up to get Bush.
I also don't think the Chiefs see a need a MLB like some of us do. [Reply]
We’ve made some progress on defense. Old players gone, new coaching staff etc etc. I hope we don’t lose focus on the OL. We have to protect Pat at all costs. I wouldn’t mind OL in the 2nd. [Reply]
I think it’s very possible with players that don’t fit and the draft capital we have built. This is only if Veach and Co think as highly of the devins as we all do. [Reply]
5-9 spots max to get Bush. But at that point Murphy, Greedy, and Ferrell could very well still be on the board and then it's a question of what position the Chiefs value most. [Reply]
Nothing too revealing here, though there are a few somewhat interesting tidbits.

What can we do now to put ourselves in a good position not just for next year but for the next three, four, five six years? You go back to where we’ll be with both draft capital and cap space, this put us in a really good position in regards to potential extensions coming up and it put us in a position to maneuver around the draft and to potentially do things outside the box from now until the start of the season.’’
