Dorsey simply isnt going to overpay for any of them, which is what he'd have to do to entice one to KC, unfortunately.

He overpaid Bowe, why not pay a FA WR that can produce? In the end there are so many WR options in FA and the draft this year I think we go OL in the first. Dorsey has a tradition of picking OL or OLB in the first and the OL draft and FA class just isn't near as deep as WR.

Figure that out from his 2 and only drafts ever? Good shit.

Dorsey is simply not going to drastically overpay for any of the very few top free agent receivers, and it is a very small pool of elite guys to choose from this year.

An even if he decided to overpay, that doesnt always mean anyone would want to come here... sure , top receivers want money like everyone else, but they also want accomplishments and recognition, and any receiver on the outside looking in surely see's KC as a place where receiving escalades and glory goes to die.

The only top receiver I can honestly say might come here is Maclin and that depends on if his relationship with Reid is as good as they say it is. I think we can forget about the rest of the top tier type guys.

I was thinking DGB would impress the Raiders and they'd make him the first WR off the board causing Parker to slip to #18 and the Chiefs.

Great game by Hardy, god i want him. #mustnotgetattached #maynotbecomeachief

LoL you can join me at #alreadytooattached #attachmennotgoodformentalhealth

I'm becoming a big fan as well. Hardy and Goodley in the mid rounds isn't too much to ask for, right?

I'd rather have lockett

I wouldn't put anything past the faiders.

There are a lot of good potential #1 WRs in this draft class and a bunch of guys who can become solid contributors. I just hope that Dorsey doesn't screw the pooch like he did last year and completely pass on taking any WRs.

Right or wrong, I'd venture to say they'll have 2-3 new wrs next year

Here's how I see the FA WR class of 2015:

Zero chance these guys are available.

Demarius Thomas
Dez Bryant

These guys are almost undoubtedly resigning with their current teams, but maybe one of them becomes available. Anyone of these guys would be great for us. Note:Everyone I've listed below would come cheaper than Bowe.

Jeremy Maclin
Randell Cobb
Eddie Royal
Torrey Smith

Harvin and Wallace are possible cuts, and Gordon might be available via trade. Anyone of these guys would be great, but all of them are possible cancers.

Mike Wallace
Percy Harvin
Josh Gordon

Older receivers, but one of the two might be available. Either would be an improvement.

Reggie Wayne
Hakeem Knicks

Some lesser receivers that are all still notable upgrades for our squad. Crabtree is simliar to Bowe in my mind, but much cheaper. Welker should retire before he's a vegetable. Shorts and kearse have been mentioned often as options. Kenny Britt, well I'm not a fan but others may feel he'd fit.

Michael Crabtree
Cecil Shorts
Jermaine Kearse
Wes Welker
Kenny Britt

If we drop Bowe we can pay 2 or 3 of these guys. At this point I see zero need to keep Bowe, we can spend that money elsewhere. Plenty of FA options and quality receivers in the draft. I think we need 3 new WR's and I don't feel that they'll be difficult to find, we may already have one of them in Rogers.

Maclin would be the best option. He knows the coach, offense, and is still fairly young...

So, Devin smith. Am I supposed to not like him, cause he deems like a great fit herr
