Quote:Olivier Vernon, Muhammad Wilkerson, and Tashaun Gipson. I prefer Berry, and i think the Chiefs might not be able to pay him what he's worth, but I think he'll stay in KC, at least for 2016 on the franchise tag.
Quote:I'm wondering if Eric hits the market because his cancer diagnosis might have them letting him ruling out a franchise tag on him. He's still my top target although I would need him to take a physical and would want to talk to his doctor. Similarly, I'd love to have a shot at Von Miller or Josh Norman, but I really don't see the Broncos and Panthers letting either go. Gipson would be a target if Berry simply isn't there.


As for additional targets, immediately I'm calling up Bruce Irvin to secure the OTTO spot once and for all. I'm hoping with the Seahawks having to commit so much money to so many different players, that he ends up hitting free agency.


I keep seeing Olivier Vernon as a LEO prospect, but only recently so I'm still a tad skeptical about him.



On the flip side, t
here are a couple potential targets being meantioned that I'm just not so sure about...


I'm a little leary about Mario Williams coming off a down year now that he's up there in age. I'd need to give him a good work out to see if he can still play. Eric Weddle in my mind is not an option. I've heard too much flak about his being a liability in coverage and he's been rather injury prone as of late. Both of these guys sound like FAs who will getting paid for past performance and not future performance.



I know this thread is about defensive targets, but just to mention them, my offensive targets would be LT Cordy Glenn, C Lyle Sendlein and RB Ronnie Hillman.
The Chiefs have over 35 mil in cap space. They can afford to pay Berry whatever he wants. No franchise tag needed. He isn't leaving KC.
