As expected, Chiefs don’t franchise Branden Albert
By Josh Alper The Chiefs used their franchise tag on left tackle Branden Albert last season, but there will not be a replay in Kansas City. The deadline for using the tag has come and gone and Albert is still on track to become a free agent on March ...
TC’s Annual Mock Offseason 2014
By texaschief If you haven’t been around long, then you probably don’t know… I try to do one of these “offseason plans” at the end of each season. I usually do a mock free agency along with a mock draft based on the ass ...
Chiefs cut Dunta Robinson
By Michael David Smith Dunta Robinson is done in Kansas City. Robinson, the veteran cornerback who signed a three-year, $13.7 million contract with the Chiefs last year, has been released. The move isn’t a big surprise: Robinson wasn’t the player th ...
List of 2013′s most disappointing players: We got one on it.
By Frankenchief 17. Dwayne Bowe You can blame Alex Smith all you want, but the fact is, it wasn’t just his quarterback holding Bowe back in 2013. Admittedly sluggish — translation: out of shape — Bowe struggled more than he should have against man c ...
Clark Hunt: We hope Alex Smith’s here longer than two years
By Josh Alper One of the reasons why the Chiefs were able to improve from 2-14 to an 11-5 playoff team was the acquisition of quarterback Alex Smith in a trade with the 49ers before the 2013 season. Smith didn’t set the world on fire, but the Chiefs ...

So one of the weaknesses we have all known about is our secondary. Many here complained about B. flowers having a down year and wondered if his skills have slipped, or if he is not cut out to play man (he has been known as a zone player and was drafted for his cover 2 zone abilities by Herm). Some even considered trading him since he spent most of his time as a nickel corner and is a 10 mil cap hit.
Supposedly Tampa Bay is interested in trading Darrelle Revis, because he is a man-man corner who will be playing Read more…

Perhaps you’ve heard a little something about this in recent weeks, but the Dolphins might need a little help on the offensive line. And they’re apparently interested in beginning the makeover with a high-priced tackle. According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins “very much like” Ravens free agent Eugene Monroe, as well…

Us being at 23 and them having the 26th pick via Colts trade I think they could potentially be a trade back partner. This draft is widely viewed as being one of the deepest in the past decade so we need to gather a few more picks. Im not sure with the draft value per pick and all that stuff but ill say we trade back with them from 23 to 26 and we get their 2 3rd round picks 71 and 82. That gives us 26, 71, 83, and 87 picks in the first 3 rounds. Read more…

So according to profootballtalk’s sources, the salary cap is going to be a lot larger than was expected, over 132 million. Currently we are sitting at ~125.5 mil and we have about 2.4 million that we didnt spend last year that we can roll over.
Assuming a cap of 132 million (which the cap may be larger), we would have almost 9 million to spend in FA/draft. PFT is suggesting the cap will be closer to 135 mil, meaning we would have closer to 12 mil to spend. That means we could possibly go after some bigger names for positions of Read more…

R1 – OG David Yankey – Stanford (6’6″ 315)
A large number of Chiefs fans are screaming loudly for receivers at the top of this draft, but the position is littered with potential steals later on. With WR being a position that is almost as difficult to hit on statistically as QB, I’m not one for taking pokes in the dark in round 1. There is also the group that will “scream” if we take another lineman. Well, when you have a regime that made mistake after mistake, your next one has to make up for it. The Chiefs won’t be Read more…

I know this will never happen, but say Jadeveon Clowny falls to 4-6 position. Would anyone be willing to give up picks (and how much) to move up and get him? I just wish he would have been in last years draft. I think Fischer will be good, but having the top DE to come out of college in the past 10+ years would be nice. Think about the pass rush that could be generated when Clowney, Poe, Houston, and Hali would all be deserving of double teams. Our defense would be so amazing, but Read more…
