2019 Free agency Thread
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. https://overthecap.com/ |

Veach has been our Gm for like a year and a half, and we’ve immediately become a future force due to drafting the guy he pined for.
In general, I like to give GMs a few years before I start really criticizing them - it can be tough to understand someody’s vision for the team in a short amount of time. Also consider the fact this dude took over a broke dick defense littered with bad contracts. Personally, I’ve been happy with most of what Veach has done since taking over. I can understand not particularly liking his moves, but suggesting he should be fired at this point is, IMO, completely ridiculous.

Which contracts are really that stupid? Watkins got paid but it's also a 3-year deal with an out after 2.
Hitchens looked like a bad deal after the way he played but if he improves in the new defense, he'll literally cost HALF of what some of these jokers just got in free agency. Other than those 2, where has he really made mistakes. Honestly, I'm much more concerned about the way he drafts right now. Trading up for Speaks looks like a bust move right now but at least they're changing defenses, which should help him. |

The Hitchens deal won't look bad at all if he plays better this year. He isn't even getting half of what Mosley just got.

And if he sat on his ass the last two years in free agency, you’d bitch about that too.
I’m not going to fault the guy for swinging big while we have Mahomes on a rookie contract. That’s exactly what I want him to do. At least they’re deals that you can get out of after 2 years. That’s why I’m fine with them. |

Yea it’s not ideal but we absolutely need him to keep this offense as great as it is and we can get out of it next year.
What would you do with that extra cap room this year? Hand out a stupid contract to somebody else? It’s not like this deal or any of the ones he’s given out are going to keep us from extending Jones and Hill either. |

I don't understand why people are bitching about Veach's contracts being stupid, when all they want is for Veach to hand out a stupid contract.
Thank GOD for Watkins' contract if it means not signing Earl Thomas. |

And quit arguing about that bundle of sticks Dee Ford. If they plan to get the jump on extending Jones, they HAVE to move his ass. If they don't, Ford and his agent are going to be screaming bloody ****ing murder in Veach's ear for an entire year, and I can guarantee you the Chiefs want no part of it.
