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/ |

Seem like to anyone else the Chiefs are a little overly worried about the Mahomes extension? I mean I understand it's a big deal, but shit guys.

No. I think their plan is to extend Hill and Jones this year, and this investigation has somewhat put a monkey wrench in to the works. Mahomes doesn't factor in to it at all.

It’s not just Mahomes though. They were preparing to pay Hill and Jones. They tried to get Earl to pair with Tyrann so they clearly aren’t afraid to spend the money either. This years group of free agents just simply weren’t that good and they’re not going to spend money just for the hell of it.

That seemed like a "we like him and his market isn't together so lets do this" kinda thing. I'm not sure that was the big plan but maybe i'm wrong. |

The Chiefs need to move on some guys here.
Too many holes that cannot be expected to be filled with the draft/UDFA’s. The LB core is poor, a starter at safety and Edge is needed. Reiter needs competition at Center, and uncertainty around the Hill situation needs addressing. Costs have dropped, but teams with lots of cap will slightly overpay these 2nd/3rd wave guys. The Chiefs can’t afford to be on the outside looking in, tipping off their draft needs. |

How is the Hill situation impacting our pursuit of players? If we were planning on signing him, and now we may not, wouldn’t that mean we would have more money to spend and not less?
I really don’t understand why we are pussyfooting around in FA. |

Pussyfooting? We signed Mathieu and were about to sign Thomas. Did you want to pay Lev Bell what he wanted or give Cj Mosley 17M?

We could still possibly pick up another Safety, but I'm thinking that they are looking to the draft for that. How many quality Linebackers and O linemen were available in FA this year? Not many from where I sit. The top two receivers in FA were not guys that the Chiefs had any interest in, I truly believe that. As a player and team mate, Hill has been outstanding since coming to KC, and it looks like this thing with CPS is probably going to blow over. I don't think the Chiefs considered releasing him even once after they had time to talk to him and gather facts.

I would surmise that it's not just about the dollars - it's really what we want our team's vision to be. If somehow Hill isn't a part of the 2019 Chiefs, there's little likelihood we will be a championship team with just the average defense we were striving for a month ago. The entire complexion of the team changes and we might need to have a much more aggressive view on defensive additions since there's no one available anymore at WR who can replicate Hill's production. I fully understand if this has thrown a serious spanner in the works for Veach's grand plan.
