There is no question that the Chiefs could use a good WR and need to replace some players on the O-line. That said, I agree with Dempsy that our first priority should be defense.
Last year when our defense was good (before the bye) the offense found a way to do just enough to win the games. When our offense was good (after the bye), no matter how much they scored, we usually lost.
There is no question that a strong pass rush helps the secondary cover better. Our DBs fell apart after Houston and Hali got hurt and we couldn't pressure the QB. The same thing happened in Chicago when they suffered injuries to their D-line and LBs. A strong pass rush forces QBs to get rid of the ball faster and make bad decisions. It also means that receivers have less time to get open and DBs don't have to cover them for as long or as far down the field.
We need help on both sides of the ball, but we win with defense.
