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.
Yeah. Let's just throw all the 2nds we've been collecting to bolster our roster with cost effective talent in Mahomes expensive years for Clark. :-) [Reply]
I don’t think they’re looking to add a star edge player right now. I think they’re trying to build up a large rotation of rushers who can be versatile, performing their stunts and twists that they may be asked to do. [Reply]

Check if they'll take less just so they can get anybody left.
I apologize if the answer to this question is in the last 96 pages of this thread. It is obvious that I do not understand the free agency process. As of 3/13 the Chiefs have 11 unrestricted free agents that have not been tendered an offer by the chiefs. Does this mean that the Chiefs do no longer want them on the team or is there some negotiating process that will lead to a contract? If no other team picks them up are the Chiefs able to negotiate a lower salary to keep them? If so is there not a risk that the Chiefs will lose someone they want to keep or do they care?
These players officially became free agents at 3 p.m. central time Wednesday and can sign with club.
• G Jeff Allen
• DE Allen Bailey
• WR Kelvin Benjamin
• WR Chris Conley
• OL Jordan Devey
• TE Demetrius Harris: Agreed to a two-year contract with the Cleveland Browns
• C Mitch Morse: Agreed to four-year, $44 million contract with the Buffalo Bills
• CB Steven Nelson: Agreed to three-year, $25.5 million contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers
• CB Orlando Scandrick
• FB Anthony Sherman
• WR De'Anthony Thomas
• RB Spencer Ware
• RB Charcandrick West
• LB Frank Zombo [Reply]

They're free to sign anywhere, a few of them will probably end up coming back...also Terrence Smith got not tendered so he should be on that list too. [Reply]

At what price do you extend a player who is very similar to Steven Nelson in terms of style? Waynes is longer and a decent tackler, but is not great when he cannot see the ball - he gets grabby and does not have the best ball skills.
Not sure I'm offering a lot of draft capital for that. [Reply]

He went a little crazy and he's 31. His 2019 salary of $10.9 million fully guarantees tomorrow and with roster/workout bonuses he'd end up north of $11.3 million.
