I think if the secondary were more solid, they could mix things up and do more of the kinds of thing Denver is free to do. Denver shows 6 at the line and 8 in the box all day long. Trouble is, every time the Chiefs dial up some pressure, the quick pass is completed. I don’t think the issue is pass rush, so much as corner play, at this point.

We give QB's too long, I think Carr and Flowers are rock solid and that corner is the least of our problems. Champ Baily is still the best corner in the league, I remember a couple of years ago people were saying he wasn't top corner anymore because he got beat a couple times, which IMO was false, only reason why people started thinking that is b/c Denvers pass rush was horrid.

Guys built more or less like Dantrell Savage. Quick, strong, low-to-the-ground. Good hands and good brains. Like LB, I think being GOOD at RB (LB) behind GREAT line play alongside GREAT perimeter players is the best way to go. 1st-rounders @ RB and LB come AFTER the other bases are covered. This being said, you can see why I like your picks, although I'd be making SIMILAR picks in a more modest way. The thing about Berry is, like Polamalu, you could single him up pretty much at will, and that REALLY opens up what you can do out of the same personnel groupings. But I'd definitely be looking, as you are, to add a dominant coverage guy first and foremost (again, assuming neither Leggett nor Washington grows a brain this season). Micjones: Alleman came in against a tired D-Line. And the defense seemed to be focused on beatin' up poor Wade Smith on the left side, even with the help of an extra TE off his left shoulder. Also, Alleman appears to be battling injuries. All: Who is the Ax? Jackie Battle(-Axe)? He's on IR, now. This is since most of you were talkin', so it's not like you had any way of knowing, especially after we saw him ascend to #3 over Savage a week or so ago. I think Battle's been in the league 3 years, now. Is it about time to conclude he's all show and no go? At RB, I think the Chiefs should go for more all-around backs.
