I'd like it okay, although I'd still have fairly deep concerns about LT. I get you're pinning your hopes to Fisher's return in 2021 and I can't say that you shouldn't. I don't know that you can peg Tega Wanohgo as the short-term answer there given he was far behind Radunz technically coming out and in equal need of strength development. I think Radunz, while I like him, is a year away strength-wise. Maybe the combination limps you through until a Fisher return. That hope for Fisher's return scares me though.

I do have a hard time seeing Marshall fall to 42 in the draft. He's right there as a 1st-round caliber player much like Tee Higgins last year. I think he goes in the first couple picks of the 2nd to a team that drafted a QB. If the Jets go with a QB instead of Chase, I could see them as the most likely destination.

The bad part of it for me is the RFA tenders. Every RFA at original round will cost $2.24 million, then you have Ward at $3.42 million as a 2nd round tender. That means you have $10.1 million tied up in, primarily, scrubs.

Pringle, Williams, and Yelder should all be guys you try to bring back on vet minimum or near vet minimum deals, that will save you about $4 million. If you can't, then I think the obvious choice is to let them all walk.

He had 91 tackles on the season to go with a few ints and some big plays. I doubt the Chiefs see him as merely "expendable." I'd put it at more likely than not the Chiefs offer him a 2 or 3-year deal similar to his current deal.

I agree he's not great at covering TEs though. I'd like to see better there.
