safety

-that kid from buffalo that they released
- webb? was he decent at safety for baltimore?

Resigning Butler has to be a priority. Im willing to go "as-is" at the safety spot if we can get Butler back. Maybe draft another safety in the 4th or 5th round to get depth.

I would love for us to go after Zach Brown at ILB. The guy is solid.

Corner should be addressed in the 2nd round of the draft imo, and again later in the draft.

Two rookies and Melvin does not give me a lot of confidence. Need at least one more VFA at CB

I think Parry is gone, I think they need to upgrade Jones, and I am not completely confident in Andersen. But I do like Ridgeway.

Still have money left. We need players. Go get them

If we get Poe, I think the dline will be one of the strongest units on the team. I think Anderson will be fine. He had flashes last season, and he'll learn to trust his injured knee.

If Jones can pull it together, the dline could be actually be very good.

But if you can upgrade Jones' position with a reasonable amount of money and get younger that is the way to go IMO.

I'M TIRED OF GETTING KIILED BY THE RUN!!!!!

I think the Poe contract would mostly leave them to solving as much as they can for the rest via the draft.

Would have to think ILB, EDGE and CB would be the big draft targets. Would be hard to argue against any.

If this team had another Day 2 pick, I might even argue a case where they trade up for Reuben Foster...

I agree, love to have Zach Brown ...

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.
