Don't know how accurate sportrac is with their "market value" guesstimations but I personally hope the Chiefs can retain Danna. Do you (the CP brain trust) think he is an important piece to retaining some of our D consistency (especially with Omenihu going to miss half the season) or do you think FAU/BJ Thompson can step in without a drop off in production? Or will the Chiefs find a DE gem to step in and wreck from that side of the ball?
FAU and BJ Thompson really didn't see much action last year so hard to gauge their readiness.

Spotrac projects Danna to get paid this offseason as his calculated market value is a three-year, $50 million deal. That might be too expensive for the Chiefs’ wallet as they have other pressing needs.

He played almost the whole 2nd half the last game of the regular season at LAC and looked pretty disruptive, but needs to get stronger. Surely you didn't miss him playing two quarters in one game ???? [Reply]
We decided to basically give away Sneed rather than play him on the tag, so with that money I'm expecting us to re-sign players like Danna who produced for us. More to come hopefully. [Reply]
