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.

No news could be good news. Veach said as of 1pm Arrowhead time that they hadn’t met yet, and they obviously had the presser with HB at 2, then signed Okafor.

It could come at any time.
Oh shit. I wasn’t aware that he said that. That makes me feel much better. [Reply]

Why would Veech even consider giving him a contract? :-)

If this is true- why would you even consider signing a guy that can't pass a physical.

That is called speculation by Chief Roundup. It isn't reality.
Adrian Peterson tore his ACL AND MCL, had surgery the last day of December and not only passed his offseason physical, he started the first game of the next season.
They wouldn't be entertaining him if there was no chance at all he could pass a physical. And there's no chance they sign him if he can't.
Panthers release left tackle Matt Kalil after two years

After spending the 2018 season on injured reserve with a knee injury, left tackle Matt Kalil will need to prove he's healthy with another team.
The Carolina Panthers on Thursday released Kalil, the team announced. NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport first reported the transaction.
Kalil, who joined the Panthers in 2017 on a five-year, $55 million contract, was set to make a base salary of $7 million in 2019.
The team is making Kalil a post-June 1 cut, which saves the team an estimated $7.5 million in cap space, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of the Charlotte Observer. Carolina, though, would still be left with about $15 million in dead money.
The Panthers brought back right tackle Daryl Williams and recently signed center Matt Paradis, but the release of Kalil leaves a need for depth on the offensive line.
The 6-foot-7, 315-pound Kalil will likely get some attention on the open market given his experience but will have to answer questions about his durability after a disappointing stint in Carolina. He has appeared in 82 career games while playing for the Panthers and Minnesota Vikings (2012-16). [Reply]

I missed that. Thanks for easing my delicate mind [Reply]
