Kansas City Chiefs Report Card: B-
Now we move to the Kansas City Chiefs who signed a top ten wide receiver, Jeremy Maclin. The Chiefs always come short in the AFC West thanks to the Broncos, but picking up Maclin was solid.
Along with Maclin, they’ve brought in veteran and experienced strong safety Tyvon Branch in the squad. No doubt Branch isn’t what he used to be, but he has the ability to lead in the secondary which is what the Chiefs were looking for. In addition, they signed Fanaika from Arizona.
The biggest loss on the sheet for the Chiefs was their powerhouse center Rodney Hudson whose gone off to their arch rival, the Oakland Raiders. They also lost Coleman, Walker and tight end Anthony Fasano to the market.
You have to give Chiefs credit for the Maclin signing as a bunch of teams wanted a piece of him. They still need to be aware of wide receiver Dwayne Bowe whose unsigned and several other players.
