    Default JEEZ! We are being decimated in free agency!

    Can somebody please find a positive spin to put on this? I'm not too happy right now. :(

    That's it in a nutshell. The one I thought that was the best talent-wise of the bunch we lost was DMC, but we also had to weigh the cost of keeping him vs. what we already had/what we can pickup in the draft.

    The problem with DMC is that we have others on the team who can return kicks/punts just as well as he does and his limited offensive skills would be rarely used. So he had two strikes against him. He is worth more (to the right team) than the Chiefs can afford to pay him and his skill set made him expendable. I really like Dexter, but losing him won't hurt our offense or our special teams.

    Most definitely. Tennesse really needed a boost, and think that he'll improve that team.

    And that Sir is why I posted this thread. Needed some calmer heads to calm down my worries. And I thank you for contributing for that.

    The X factor, Dante Hall, where is he and what has he done after leaving the Chiefs? DMC is the same type of player, I hope he banks his money. They are great at what they do, but not sustainable for need in roster spots. Why spend on flash, when need is more. Need is a WR that will catch a pass needed. The goal is to not need a special teams td.
