I love Reader, he and my son are good friends, and he would be great with any team. But he would be in competition with Fletcher Cox, Javon Hargrave, Arik Armstead... even 1st Rounder Jordan Davis cant see the field. Im sure DJ would hold his own but these are 2 great dlines.
Sweat, Graham, Quinn, Bosa, Ebukam would keep Sam on the sidelines Im afraid.
That said, these guys are FAs
Cox
Quinn
Graham
Hargrave
Ward
Ebukam
Mosely
Al-Shaair
Gispon
Well over $100M in that bunch above not to mention the offensive FA's each team has:
Kelce
Seumalo
Sanders
McGlinchey
Brunskill
Jennings
Neither team will be better than they are this season. We on the other hand shore up RT, hope that ADG and Dax can fill spots, should be good to go.
Nice post Casear. Yes, it is refreshing having a good tackling Defense to say the least. Especially one that can stop the run. I hated
it all those years when we sucked at stopping the run. That irks me more than anything. Wow, surprised those teams have that many
FA's to try and keep. The Eagles might be able to keep a few of them. Fletcher Cox used to be great but I would take Reader over him
any day who is still in his prime.
The Chiefs cannot lose Kelce if they want to continue to play us tough.
I like our situation better than about anybody right now honestly. I think we can keep our essential players.
