I don't think they should or will throw any high picks out but looking around the league, who do you guys think they could add that would help? [Reply]

Robinson would provide Patrick Mahomes with a high-volume, reliable possession receiver who has the broken play dexterity to thrive alongside Mahomes. Robinson could pull the Chiefs’ offense out of its rut and ease the burden currently placed on their offensive line.

It could be very dangerous. Tyreek needs an extension this offseason to lower his 21m cap number and you can’t really use all offseason resources on 2 WRs. Tyreek will get the largest contract in history for a WR. You don’t want teammates at the same position competing for resources.

And put who are safety? Thornhill ans Sorensen? Nah fam I’m good [Reply]

With all that in mind they have an opportunity to get much better if they can string games together and stay healthy. Dealing Tyrann now would be utterly counter-productive at this point because we'd be back to relying on a clear liability (Dan) again. The WR draft and free agency in 2022 is bananas and we'd be much better off waiting for that. [Reply]

An offense with Robinson-Hill-Kelce would not matter who the starting safety is. It doesnt matter who the starting safety is at the moment anyway with our defense being historically bad [Reply]

The defense is bad at the moment. Trading away tyrann is asking for it to be historically bad. There is a difference. [Reply]
Allen Robinson is NOT coming to the Chiefs before Tuesday. More FA word salad that we see every year at this time. (Writers got to eat too.) Trade away your 2nd round pick for a 28 year old receiver on a $17.8M dollar 1 yr contract? And then overpay next year to keep him. Nope.
For salary cap harmony and sustained success, the Chiefs need to stop trading away draft picks for overpaid vets. Chiefs are going to have a lot of holes to fill next year. As it stands they have no 5th rounders and two 7th rounders. If anything, the Chiefs should be stocking up on draft picks as prudently as possible. [Reply]
The guy we should be all over is Charles Harris from the Lions. A 26 years old, 6'3, 252 pounds DE who has four sacks already for them and looks decent against the run too. Another bonus is HE'S FROM KANSAS CITY!!...so there's a fair chance he's a fan just like us. He was a 1st round pick for Miami in 2017 but hasn't really produced until this year. He's only on a one year deal worth 1.7m aswell so everything makes sense cap wise and with him coming home I'd bet he'd be happy to stay longterm on a modest deal if everything went well. [Reply]
