2024 NFL Offseason - FAs, Trades, Draft
-
@AsadZ A fair grade, but I would go up to A- because they signed about 4 pretty strong guys as UFAs who were not drafted but were considered Day 3 prospects. Essentially the same as having 4 extra 6th or 7th rd picks.
-
@AsadZ I’m excited to see Worthy in that offense. Kingsley was projected to the Chiefs in the first round in several mock drafts. Wiley learning from Kelce is very intriguing. Hicks was a second round talent and a potential replacement for Reid in a year. Low round picks are always a flier, but the cb has excellent traits and Veach has a good eye for that position. The center can play the entire iol. The G prospect is just a guard, but ol depth is weak so he’s likely to make the team as well. It should be 6 of the 7 make the roster.
I could talk myself into an A or a C. In Veach I trust, it’s an A!

List of UFA signings:
Chiefs seem to be a magnet for guys looking to land a spot.
-
It will be curious to see how: Worthy, Mcconkey. Leggette and Coleman….who turns out the best.
Similar to when we took mecole and dk metcalf was available or when we got skyy moore and Pickens was right there
Hopefully we got more of a desean Jackson type in worthy
-
@kuballin10 who’s your horse? Worthy vs the field? I’d take the field too if I lived misery, but that’s just an odds play.
I’m betting on Worthy to ball out as he has the skill set to do well in this offense. Mecole Hardman had 800 yard recording in college and was a converted DB. Worthy had 2500 and was a true #1 receiver. Not a good comp.
Whiffing on DK was due to Hill drama and needing a speedy replacement - panic move and a bad one. No need to panic this go around.
-
Man that’s tough as Veach hasn’t gotten a wr right besides Rice being his first (whiffs on plenty).
I lean toward Worthy and think he will actually be a stud. As you said way different than converted db mecole.
Yeah Hill forced veach’s hand and you don’t bat 1000.0 in the draft so I get it.
Overall gotta trust the staff as they’ve done great these past 3-4 drafts and I think Veach has grown a ton in player scouting. He’s drafting smart athletes
I actually think Hill will be our next Tony G. Dude is big, runs/moves like Kelce and being a former qb is smart when it comes to diagnosing coverages. He won’t be Kelce as hardly anyone can be I think he will be a stud.
Overall this draft class should be an impact from day 1
Three peat time baby!
-
@kuballin10 Yeah I’m excited about Wiley too. Boom or bust I suppose, but a 4th rounder is not much of a gamble.
-
Uh oh. Rice under investigation for a nightclub assault. They say he walloped a photographer.
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Damn, something I did not want to hear and see.

Nope. Dude needs to realize he’s got it good. Let your crew do the dirty work!
The suspension is getting longer…
-
Allegedly
-
Meanwhile, Kelce is hosting game shows, joining the cast of American Horror Story and in general keeping out of trouble by elevating his celebrity.
-
@bskeet AHS is pretty gross. I’ve watched it.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yeah. I’m not the target audience.
My daughter (now 22) liked it.
-
@bskeet I would not tell my friends that I go to church with that I’ve watched it. Hope Travis doesn’t play to gross of a part.
-
Interesting comments by Harrison B
-
@AsadZ “Interesting” is the most euphemistic word in the English language. Think about that blind date your friend tried to set you up with…“Is she cute?” “Oh, wow, she is SO interesting!”
-
Oh boy. Saw that. The Chiefs are quickly becoming a PR nightmare.
-
And now I just read that Rashee Rice had a gun incident in college! He and some buds shot up an empty car belonging to a basketball player. They are making it sound like all pro teams knew of this before the draft.
Man. Red flags.
-
I see a suspension coming
-
I hope it’s just that @AsadZ . Would hate to lose a player as exciting as him.

I was there and I was shocked by what he was saying in real time.
But people have lost their minds over this. He’s certainly entitled to his opinions and religion. Personally, I just found it to be a really bad graduation speech and something meant for a different event.
The BC grads I know felt the same.
-
Which would be worse…losing Rice or Butker for the season?
-
-
Chiefs play on everyday except Tuesday next season.
- Regular Sunday game. Monday night. The Christmas game on Wednesday. The Black Friday game. And the Saturday game before Christmas.

Holy crap. At first glance, that schedule looks brutal!
-
@rockchalkjayhawk The price of winning. At least we get the NFC South slate.
-
I see most experts are ranking the Chiefs SOS in the middle somewhere.
Dang, looks tough to me! I got em losing 4 games if all goes well.
-
Lots of talking heads picking the Ravens to beat the Chiefs in the opener. Mahomes is 4-1 against Lamar with the one being due to a perfectly thrown ball being dropped by Toney (smdh) and intercepted. Not sure I’d put any money on Baltimore.
-
Rookie, Worthy’s car was stolen this week. What else?#%&$
-
@Kcmatt7 good take, I think Harrison was a bit over the top on this for sure. But man X and Facebook are blowing up with petitions to get him cut and such. This is America and he is free to support any religion he chooses. I’m shocked by how much more outrage there is on this than Deshaun Watson signing a record breaking deal after sexually assaulting 24 women.

The outrage about this is a drop in the bucket comparatively. That one played out over a couple years so you might not remember how hot it got.
-
@kjayhawks ehhhh. I think there was plenty of outrage. Some of that was suppressed because he was also suspended for a full season. So he was out of the spotlight so to speak.
There also wasn’t an “opposing side” to the Watson stuff. Like everyone knew it was bad. So there wasn’t debate.
-
@Kcmatt7 Oh, there were a lot of Watson defenders who tried to advance the notion that he was innocent of any wrongdoing because the DA did not press charges.
And I also remember people braying that the women Watson pressured into sexual contact were most likely prostitutes since they were masseuses. These people belong in a very, very hot destination.
-
Chiefs have signed all but there first two picks.
Sounds like WR Worthy will be signed pretty soon, but that BYU lineman may take another month.
-
And for those of you still interested in Butker’s comments, you can read the entirety of his graduation speech here:

-
(Before i read the full speech, i was angrily outraged at Butler. After i read the full speech, i was outraged, but less so).
-
Is thinking everyone is a pervert that much different than thinking everyone is dumb?
-
@approxinfinity if all the perverted dumbasses would stay home it might change the view.
-
2 Chiefs arrested in Kansas for misdemeanor marijuana possession. Great off-season keeps rollin’ along…
-
Veatch better get on the phone and call Taylor’s agent.
-
@AsadZ Isn’t Taylor the right tackle? Do you mean Smith from last season at Lt following the Morris shenanigans? FWIW I seriously doubt Morris misses even a game and Kingsley is gonna win the job imho.
Another Taylor is rumored (not reality, but funny) to have influenced the Chiefs schedule - Bills in the middle of the season while a small concert is going on in Canada.

I know these football players take a lot of hits to the head, but really, how dumb do you have to be to get arrested for pot possession while driving? You’re either smoking up like cheech and chong, with billows of smoke trailing you, or you have it in plain sight when pulled over.
Either way you’re an idiot.
-
@dylans Sorry I had meant Smith, LT last year who I believe is still FA.
-
Hope these players go through some sort of training in their rookie years, its unbelievable.
Putting such a black eye on the franchise.
-
And it’s legal right across the state line. Like guys have more than a room temp IQ here
-
Thats a valid point Farmer, I was not aware.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I grew up a mile from State Line Road and remember the days when Kansas cops were reputed (ah, Jaybate, where art thou?) to go park near KC, MO liquor stores and follow cars with KS license plates back across the state line. Then bust them for bringing booze into Kansas. This was before Vern Miller arrested (or did he just threaten?) airline attendants for serving liquor by the drink while flying over the Sunflower State.
The story about the cops might have been my father just trying to scare us impressionable teens, but I did hear it from others. Did Kansas have no liquor stores back in the good ol’ days?
-
@FarmerJayhawk Go to Missouri for weed and Kansas for gambling. They should set up a riverboat casino dispensary and make it your one stop shop for ruining a young nfl career.
