Scouts, and not even free-agency on March 14. Rather, general managers,Authentic Nate Solder Jerseynor draft day,Authentic Trey Flowers Jersey and personnel departments formulate plans and never rest on the laurels of success in the moment. The NFL is eternally a forward battle of getting better or dying now. While that may seem pessimisticwomens Rex Burkhead Jersey there really is only one winner at the end of the year.

Driving the pessimism even further is the fact that some teams must be virtuously honest with themselves if they fundamentally want to improve for the next season. One of those teams in the 2018 off-season is the Kansas City Chiefs – a team with options at several positions and growing needs due to age at others. There was a holistic lack of consistency on defense, Bob Sutton or not. With Brett Veach and Andy Reid coordinating their first off-season together as a general manager-head coach duo,Authentic Mike Gillislee Jersey, the Kansas City Chiefs 2018 off-season is one which will determine the long-term scheme,womens Kyle Van Noy Jersey, and the very intrinsic structure of the system fell apart, outlook,and hope for the team.

Detailed draft profiles will be included as well.

The Chiefs currently have picks 54, 118, 86, and 182 in the 2018 NFL Draft. This does limit them to drafting very specific needs and not frivolously reaching for players. They are also $14 million over the cap, which will force them to move assets.Authentic Shaq Mason Jersey,

there was a wide swath of inconsistency left in his wake. Roy Miller was arrested and cut halfway through the season. Bennie Logan played at replacement level or below. Chris Jones was hurt and Allen Bailey was not special. Jarvis Jenkins took 13 weeks to become a dominating force. The upside is once Jones was healthy, and Jenkins found some semblance of consistency,After Dontari Poe left for the Atlanta Falcons last season,womens Nate Solder Jersey the interior was point and tangent to defensive success.

the Chiefs need to take a hard-core look at their interior defensive line. Without getting a push,womens Trey Flowers Jersey,After giving up the second most explosive runs in the NFL, the linebackers spent more time running into their own lineman and playing inexcusably confused on their own accord.

free agency could see a big splash with a big man. Logan was only on a one-year dealAuthentic Rex Burkhead Jersey and the preference would be to let him move on. Bringing Poe back is viable,,Assuming the Chiefs move money around elsewhere (trade Alex Smith) and do not sign a wide receiver,>Authentic Chris Hogan Jersey, but the Falcons may sign him to a long-term deal.

both whom would demand in the range of $5-8 million per year depending on how many years the contract is. A four-year, $20-24 million option would be enthralling to acquire either. Clinton McDonald would be a less productive option,womens Chris Hogan Jersey,',Veteran options are Kyle Williams or Haloti Ngata, but a less costly option at $3-4 million per year.

If the Chiefs want to splash and cause a shock wave,Authentic Alan Branch Jersey, Star Lotulelei, they could go after Sheldon Richardson, or Dominique Easley on a multi-year, $10 million (starting negotiation there) baseline deal.womens Shaq Mason Jersey, The cost is high and breathtaking but these three have the skill set to revitalize and solidify the interior for years. Such a signing would additionally free them to draft elsewhere.

That leaves the Chiefs to acquire a Cedric Thornton, or Justin Ellis on a minimum deal and put their long-term hope in a rookie.womens Mike Gillislee Jersey,

While names such as Vita Vea and Maurice Hurst are floating around, they will rise to top-20 level again due to their versatility. The Chiefs would be getting a gift if either falls to 54.womens David Andrews Jersey
