    Default Free Agents?

    I see a lot of these high profile people being released (Manning, Dallas Clark, Wayne, Brandon Jacobs, Nicks among others [sidenote also shopping Freeney]) and my thought is what is the realistic possibility of acquiring any of those guys and it being a legitimate addition?

    With our cap who would be smart to go after? You think Manning and Wayne come as a combo? Do we make an aggressive bid for Nicks? Would a headache (usually) like Jacobs be worth a 3 year risk (it like Jones was)?

    What do you guys think realistically could be possibilities? Eager for the chiefs to start making moves.

    Me too. That would fill our biggest need this offseason. After that, there are few positions that we would need to upgrade at:

    NT and maybe LG/OC

    Completely disgusted.
    I read somewhere it was 2y/$18 mil. Who knows.

    More importantly, I also read that Denver offered him more than that, but he wanted to stay in his home in Miami.

    Here is a website where they grade each transaction. Some of it is funny, some of it is interesting. Enjoyable to read at the end of the day.

    that's funny stuff! LSD laced kielbasa grade! ha

    Let's hope:

    Chargers sign WR Robert Meachem (4 years, $25.9M; $14M guaranteed): MILLEN Grade
    This might be the worst signing of the offseason. Robert Meachem has underachieved his entire career despite playing with one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL. What makes the Chargers think that he'll finally live up to expectations with $14 million guaranteed in his bank account?

    It's clear that A.J. Smith is overreacting to today's events. He lost Vincent Jackson, and watched all day as the receiving market dwindled away. That's why he overpaid for Meachem. I have a feeling he's going to regret this.
