Chiefs May Use Third Day Of NFL Draft To Find Skill Players from KC Star The club is set at running back with two-time Pro Bowler Jamaal Charles; they've re-signed wide receiver Dwayne Bowe and added Donnie Avery for outside speed; and they've acquired a new starting quarterback in Alex Smith as well as his backup Chase Daniel. So the fourth through seventh rounds on Saturday will be the time to find a backup to Charles and another receiver to complement Bowe and Avery on the outside and compete with Dexter McCluster and Devon Wylie in the slot. And if one of those draft picks can ret...

One of the smartest QBs in the league he said. Andy was all smiles. So was Alex. Until Andy was asked about Matt. Andy wasn't havin' that. Same with John Dorsey. He laughs at your Matt Cassel questions. Back to Alex. He finished up talking and smiling and kissing babies... ...taking pictures... ...with the real Len Dawson...

The Kansas City Chiefs have a new receiver. Donnie Avery was said to be visiting Kansas City and now the Chiefs have reportedly decided to sign him. This according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Previously: Donnie Avery visiting KC Avery could be the only "big" free agent receiver signing, and it's not even big. His career has been inconsistent, and he's among the league leaders in percentage of balls dropped. He has some speed but catching the ball is, uh, pretty important.

Hilton and LaVon Brazill. Donnie Avery is meh to me. He's 28 and just starting to be productive, however, he and Luck click. Many would argue that the Colts don't need to be picking up any receivers this offseason. However, you don't ignore a free agent class of wide receivers when it's this full of elite talent. There's zero downside to signing another elite player alongside Wayne. There's...
