The Chiefs have so many problems on both sides of the ball that it's going to take 2-3 years to re-build this team to the point where they're competitive again. Off the top of my head, here are the starters the Chiefs need to overhaul. I'm not even going to attempt to address the back-ups. Obviously, they need a new QB. RB - Jamaal Charles will be 29 this December with two bad knees. WR - Jeremy Maclin is not a number 1 wideout. He was the number 2 guy when Desean Jackson was there and is still a number 2 guy now. We need a deep threat/game breaker type number 1 WR to accompany Jeremy. ILB Derrick Johnson is 32 and due to age and coming back from his Achilles injury, he's average at best now. OLB Tamba Hali, he'll be 32 on November 3rd, the dude is slow and old. CB - Smith and FS - Parker. In fact, other than Marcus Peters, overhaul the entire secondary and their backups, (I'll give a pass to Eric Berry, his body has been through a lot). The O-Line? Other than Donald Stephenson and Morse who has been a pleasant surprise, they need 3 new O-lineman.
They say if you can get one starter or two out of your draft class, you did well. If that's the case, the Chiefs are in deep crap.
