The most-informed Chiefs writing I've read shows the following narrative:
- Poe was at the top of the league for a season and change. Game changer rushing the passer while still playing the run well.
- His injury and surgery really held him back the last two seasons. He played through it, but his play suffered.
- It's unclear when/if he'll get back to 2014 form.
- If he doesn't, he's still a good player. The Chiefs run defense was bad because of injury their starting LBs and DL. Poe was not dominant, but he did his job and got no help.
Lots of risk in signing him long-term.
