He could be. A lot depends on his football acumen.
But imagine Kelce, Hill, Watkins, Hardman, and Seals all on the field at the same time. No RB, just TEs and WRs. Everyone can run and everyone can catch. It would definitely blow any DC's mind. [Reply]

I like this signing and think it's excellent work by Brett Veach but good grief, some of you guys need to temper your expectations.
It's clear that Veach had a plan coming into the 2020 season and that it wasn't formed yesterday. He's been playing the Long Game since he became the GM and he's proving to be one of the best, if not currently the best GM in the NFL.
He knew the Chiefs would be cap-strapped but attractive, especially after winning a Super Bowl. But unlike the 2019 offseason, when he pushed the Salary Cap to its limit and therefore had to scrounge and trade for guys with a year left on their contracts (Ogbah & Lee) or guys looking for Prove-It deals (Claiborne, Breeland, Damien Wilson and others), he's stacking up Comp Picks by allowing those same guys to sign with other teams, while once again, signing guys like Seals-Jones to Prove-It deals that will either lead to Comp Picks or contract extensions.
It's a brilliant plan that so far, has been executed brilliantly. [Reply]

Well said!
A bunch of the moves he made last year were late in free agency. The Chiefs have one of the best personnel departments in the league and it allows great drafting but also quality cheap free agents and trades.
Veach seems to be a genius at many aspects of the gm position. He might not be a excellent figure head or leader in a sense, but i dont think it's needed here. Reid is the one in charge, but one of his best traits is he trusts his guys. Veach is the same. Theres no ego from the top down, so you have a completely selfless staff - who all have a say. I think this should lead to sustained success. Who wouldn't want to be part of that? [Reply]

Good. It'll help pull up the team Wonderlic average which is being weighted down pretty heavily by Morris Claiborne's Worst-in-Wonderlic-History score of 4.
Pretty sure they give you 5 points just for spelling your name right. [Reply]
