It's STILL the offseason....
And one can only handle so much discussion about mother-daughter prostitute teams, evangelical bewilderment, Frankenstein mountain ram breeds, and viciously ferocious Aldi cashiers…
So I thought I'd make a thread of the 2023 initial 53 man roster (with Chris Jones and Charles Omenihu added) vs a 2024 projected 53 man roster (with other potential rostered and practice squad players listed underneath) to encourage some Chiefs-related chatter and comparison/growth/etc of the team and pointing out some potential position battles and such.
That and honestly, I find it a bit easier to compare when all the information of the changes is in one place.
I placed Spoilers on each Position Group so this first post doesn't go to an even more absurd length, and I'll try to edit this every so often when new signings and such occur.

A lot of position groups upgraded IMO. One notably feels a bit weaker (Defensive Backs) but there's still talent all over that room.

Supposedly Veach called during the draft. Would have made sense as a last year of his contract rental with Seattle eating some. If he gets to the open market we will be outbid.

We didn’t have enough cap space to keep Sneed (which I really regretted, but finally accepted) so I don’t see how we could possibly afford Metcalf.
I mean, it would be great to add him as a WR, no question. But I just don’t think it’s practical. I also don’t think it’s essential. Our WR room is so much better than last year. And maybe will be lucky and get something out of rice this year. And will probably be some other June first cuts that would be a lot less expensive. What would people think of us signing woods if Houston cuts him? Certainly not spectacular receiver, but I think still pretty reliable. And I am sure he would come cheap and be attracted to getting a ring.
