And keep in mind, the Chiefs are near the bottom when it comes to locally generated revenue.

Our team sucked the last couple years not because our team was cheap, it was because Herm Edward gutted this team and spent all his time in effort to build his TAMPA 2 offense while neglecting the offense.
The Chiefs have signed players the last two years to fill holes.
So while you feel the Chiefs are cheap and I get a feeling you listen to Nick Wright. Tell me which big time free agents the last two years would have made you feel good.
Averaging out, Teams that win Superbowls build their core from the draft, and spend money keeping their own players. They don’t spend a lot of money buying other teams players.
Much like Atlanta and the Jets did and now they are serious contenders years before we were. Chiefs take a step backward again this year and go 6-10 or 7-9. We have had our core for the last year or two and no we are not really signing any good free agents. Breaston may be good if he can stay on the field with that knee but at the same time we just get rid of Waters for nothing. And of course as long as he was on the team all Chiefs fan would say he was still good but since we got rid of him they try to convince themselves he was washed up. Any player we sign GREAT if same player signed with another team he wasn’t that good anyhow and we didn’t need him. Some people just wear colored glasses and don’t look at things realistically.

Too much worry so far, and I think you also have to factor in that some of the guys we have that were good will be great. Some of the guys we had that were promising will be good.
No time to panic.

Member::When everything is said and done, I think this promises to be a tough season regardless what happens in Free Agency.
Last year we had several games that but for a whisker could have gone the other way. With just a few small breaks we could have gone 12-4 or 8-8. I expect that this year will be much the same. If we get a few small breaks I think we go 10-6 again. If we can’t catch break to save our lives 8-8 or even 7-9 is conceivable.
I expect that Haley realizes just how narrow the difference between a great season and a mediocre one is likely to be and so I expect to see him make some more surprising calls on 4th down.
We certainly have a tougher schedule than last year but I also think several of our younger players matured a lot last year and we have picked up a few that I expect will be able to contribute right from the git go.
All in all, this year should tell us a lot about just how good we really are.
