On the list of salary cap "wrongs", this one is pretty damn low. I'd still keep him.

True. I've bitched about every last one of them too. This franchise makes some boner decisions at times...

Watching the playoffs and how teams are playing us, I think Veach has the right plan.

What is the gameplan opponents use to try to beat us? It’s running the ball on us and keeping Mahomes off the field.

That has to be the first priority to fix. That doesn’t mean we ignore corner, but right now I think the best plan of action should be stopping the bleeding from teams pounding the rock.

Our rush defense is much better with Nnandi in. I think it can be even better with another strong DL or ILB, whichever is available.

CB - they need 1 starting caliber. Fuller is good, Nelson is better than people here give credit and hopefully one of the youngsters (Ward) advance.
Safety - They need a starter. Watts was showing promise before his injury and Sorenson isn't bad when used correctly.
OL - You always need a fattie in the development stage. Reiter and Mckenzie are there currently. They seem to find them without much effort or capital.
RB - Unless a KH without the issues falls to you in the draft not really needed. Lindsey with the Donkeys was undrafted and could be OROY.
WR3 - Resign Hill and get Watkins healthy. WR3 doesn't get enough looks in this offense because of the playmakers ahead of them to matter.
TE2 - See WR3
DE/DL - See OL. Speaks is learning but need some more run stoppers. Sometimes it's hard to say whether it's players or scheme. They have gotten a lot of sacks this year though.
Edge/OLB - can't have too many.
ILB - Need one starter with some speed to cover a TE/RB when they come across the middle, not be a step behind so it's an easy completion for a 1st down 80% of the time.
FB - Sherman does anything you ask of him. Some teams don't even have one.

That gets it down to a half dozen or so. The Chiefs have 3 selections in the top 64 picks I believe. That leaves 2-3 for FA. Looks pretty doable to me. IMHO

Should be noted that Ward was undrafted as well.

He’s good on special teams, good when he gets chances on offense and is a leader. You’ve gotta keep him

You pay him the minimum. If someone else wants to shell out real money for a freaking fullback, you let them do it.

Speaks is ****in trash.
