Yea too bad we missed out on Christian Kirk for 84m. 

 

Kirk deal is nuts.  Also, Cedric Wilson 3yrs/22m.  Free agency is about not doing stupid things just to do something and finding the best deals left after the initial wave of craziness.

Plus good veterans aren't gonna want to come here. Also, if you haven't noticed a trend, Rhule doesn't like veterans.

I don’t these these vets care where they go if the money is right. Schreff went to the Jags and Tomlinson to the Jets which haven’t been the most stable franchises. We are just hanging around waiting for Watson like dumb asses….

Trying to think of the last great day 1 fa signing that changed a team.. drawing a blank.

Chiefs signed Thuney last year because they were serious about repairing their OL. If you want a great OL you are going to have to pay for him.

That's not QUITE true.  Rhule doesn't like veterans . . . except HIS veterans.  Nothing else could explain the OLine situation as it relates to Brown and Christiansen this year.

Right because protecting the QB is totally overrated. Maybe a couple long time award winning sports journalists can explain it to you.

 

Your argument is Kornheiser and Wilbon? lmao

The argument is that you have to protect the QB. I think they did a good job of pointing that out.

None of these fa guards are even close to being as good as thuney and the chiefs are still paying him 17mill

This is getting interesting!! 

So and so signs with so and so.......etc.

Do Fitterer and Rhule know they can sign players also?

Going to be looking at the bottom of the barrel.

Looks like quite a few good guards and centers left, only two guards signed. Not seeing the need to panic on day one.

There is a difference between guys chasing money and guys chasing success.

No one is arguing against that. It’s more a question of whether it’s worth a $40M contract on day one when you can get solid guards for about 1/8 of that commitment.

Doing nothing is better than snagging a Elflein and Erving before anyone else could.
