Listened to James Palmer from earlier today on KCSN…
It won’t be another WR that they trade for. He said they really didn’t wanna have to bring in an outside guy for sure this soon but the JuJu injury forced the issue. But having two guys who don’t know the offense sounds very unlikely. Also speaks as though Hollywood is scheduled to be back by the playoffs.
So as far as Veach continuing to work… has to be defense or LT. [Reply]

That JuJu injury… assuming he’ll be coming back relatively soon… may be a blessing in disguise if it resulted in the Chiefs trading for Hopkins. [Reply]

Said it in the GDT Sunday, if that’s what it takes to make it shake, fine
I’m starting to think Lattimore makes a ton of sense, a CB anyways…
I’m not gonna say out loud what a disaster in the secondary would look like, but that room is super thin as is post Watson injury and we need to guard against that possibility even if I think they would be fine with the talent that is currently healthy.
But they’re so good everywhere right now that it’s all icing on the cake. Even a pass rusher isn’t gonna hurt, although that feels very unlikely with Omenihu on the way. [Reply]

I don’t really buy it. Chiefs were working the phones and it sounds like this had been in the works for weeks. More than likely the chiefs know they need cuts (please be skyy) and this is a way to push people out without throwing them under the bus. [Reply]
