I’m not particular whether it be in the draft or in FA. I think upgrading the secondary is mostly a draft thing, although it looks to me like a number of teams have done themselves some serious good in FA this offseason.

Entirely possible the current struggles aren’t so much a failure to acquire as being wrong-footed on the timing, saving OL moves until late, because they knew of some good prospects such as those you named that would be available in early September. Assuming Jackson-Magee was solid for the long-term, they took a hit on o-line short-term, but maybe put themselves ahead of the game overall with their strategy.

Seymour and Ellis were quick fixes on d-line that the Faders pulled off late in the day. Chiefs made longer-term choices, and did NADA on skill positions, aside from Cassel. Wade and Long are probably two of the better values. Long’s exciting right NOW, imo, and I can see Wade being a QB’s Man Friday, but I think either one or both would benefit from just one more guy to put some fear into opposing secondaries.

Defenses DO worry BIG-time about Bowe AFTER the catch, but aren’t too worried about staying with him before or during the pass, and can pretty much bank on him being a less-than-50-50 shot as a target.

and I think that’s the position he plays in the NFL too

You have to say things that are at least remotely true…or this is just a bad joke, maybe.
