Yes, cut Wilson's ass and use his money and money from Hali, Zombo, DJ and Harris
Cut Wison and Harris on O and sign Robinson.
Cut Hali, Zombo and DJ on D and sign Butler
Use draft to get OG and backup TE
Wont have enough to get a stud OLB but hopefully Ford comes back healthy for a year. If he doesn't improve, cut him next year and target OLB in round 1.
Its a 2 year plan that would greatly improve the overall team. [Reply]
It’s about getting value there. The mid market guys are where to look imo
Offensive line is generally different.
If you're getting a solid, if not spectacular, 4 year starter that's heading into Free Agency for the first time, those signings tend to work out better than inserting "CB/WR" from "that" team to "this" team.
The Chiefs really need to bolster their offensive line and without a 1st and a 5th, it's going to be that much more difficult to acquire a guy in the draft. [Reply]

That problem will be largely fixed by having a QB who isn't a quivering pussy. [Reply]

A big strong LG would be nice, but I'm not sure they'll be that interested.
I'd imagine they'll lock up one of Fulton or Morse and go status quo there for continuity. [Reply]

I'd be shocked if they didn't upgrade the LG position.
When Witzmann wasn't a turnstile, he was a penalty machine.
Fulton isn't mobile enough to play the LG spot, Erving was bad in that position and Morse is just an injury away from missing most of the season.
IMO, it's imperative to either sign or draft a left guard that can help this team in short yardage situations and there hasn't been anyone on this roster capable of doing that for as long as I can remember. [Reply]

Oh I’d be happy with a new lg and keeping Morse but I’m not sure they’ll do that
Worth noting that the OLB spot can easily be upgraded, as Zombo was probably one of the 2-3 worst edge defenders in football this year. They still need to prioritize it highly however, along with getting a stouter DL. [Reply]

problem is, is there an OLBer worth a salt even hitting FA, usually that position gets locked up [Reply]

Chase Daniels signed a 1 yr, $900K deal with the Saints last year. He's 31 yrs old. Might be a realistic option as next year's backup. He knows the system, won't be too expensive, "team guy", and looks good in a visor. [Reply]
