Good morning, Addicts! I hope your week is off to a nice start. The Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up for the offseason push, something that starts in earnest this week with the Senior Bowl down in Mobile, Ala.
If you are not familiar with this, the Senior Bowl is where some of the best college talent that is entering the NFL Draft in April will go to show off. Basically, there is a week of practice before the game on Saturday, and it will have a huge impact on the draft grades for the players involved. It is a safe bet that Kansas City’s entire front office plus most of its coaching staff will be in attendance.

"One parameter strictly adhered to was that to qualify for this list players had to be a Kansas City Chief for at least five seasons. So, you won’t see the likes of Joe Montana, Willie Roaf, or Jared Allen on this list, though they significantly contributed to the history of this franchise."
Derrick Johnson is headed to the Pro Bowl – Joel Thorman of Arrowhead Pride
"DJ’s Pro Bowl nod is clearly well-deserved. He continued in 2015 what he’s been doing since 2010 as one of the league’s best linebackers. Coming off an Achilles tear in Week 1 of 2014, DJ came back to break the Chiefs tackle record and helped a defense that gave up the third fewest points in the NFL this season."

"John Dorsey already has his work cut out for him this offseason with a slew of defensive stars (and others) ready to enter the free agent market. Dontari Poe is also waiting for his own extension, unless the Chiefs want to create a hole that would resemble an air cabin ripping apart a la any Tom Clancy novel. In short, the to-do list is long."
