Tony Pollard has looked pretty healthy and dynamic....
If we go the non-WR route, I'd think we'd try to snake another receiving TE over a RB.
Once we have a triple headed bash brother grouping of Hunt, Pacheco and Steele, we won't have much room for another RB (+Perine).
But we could realistically upgrade over Fortson. [Reply]
You guys talking about too much money for cooper kupp need to understand that if they traded for him they aren’t paying the whole cap number each year, the bonus is still the rams responsibility.

15-16m per is worth it for kupp
Kupp is not able to stay healthy. KC needs durable guys right now. [Reply]
Some of the Kupp talk in here is crazy. Has he been injury prone as of late? Absolutely, but those of you claiming he hasn't been good even when healthy the last couple of years clearly haven't watched him. [Reply]

Yeah, a healthy Kupp plus Kelce, Hollywood, Worthy, and Juju for the Championship games is automatic KC title. [Reply]

He's a rental, full stop.
"The Panthers want to extend him..."
Okay, but he is gonna wanna test free agency unless they make him an offer he can't refuse. They'll know if they're interested in that by the deadline. Hell, they know that NOW.
I'd offer them our three and if they counter with the Titans 3 to pull the trigger now, I'd sigh and pull the trigger.
The market for receivers we can acquire isn't likely to get much larger but every week is another week another team may have a need that we have to bargain against. Pay a little more than you'd like and get something done.
We need to add a receiver.
100%.
And unlike Cooper no one can say Diontae is not a Chiefs style WR.

You're supposing that going all in precludes you from competing over the next 4-5 years. The argument is "going all in this year doesn't guarantee you anything!"
NEITHER DOES HOLDING RESOURCES FOR NEXT YEAR OR THE YEAR AFTER.
You could have key injuries in THOSE years, too. Your precious first and second round picks could be, oh I don't know... CEH and Skyy Moore.
The only guarantee you have is that Mahomes is currently healthy with an undefeated record, having already beaten multiple conference rivals.
Every week we win makes it more reasonable to pour resources into this season. And no, that doesn't mean you're mortgaging the future. You can do it savvily
It takes two to make a deal. Nobody wants to help KC. The rest of the league hates us.
You act like Veach is just sitting around playing putt putt with his ringer off.
Don't expect a blockbuster deal. Overpaying isn't likely. [Reply]
