Worst NFL offseason move for each of the 32 teams
By Randy Gurzi
Kansas City Chiefs: Kyle Long signing
It was really hard to pick something the Kansas City Chiefs did wrong this offseason. They needed to improve their offensive line and they did that by bringing in Joe Thuney and Orlando Brown. Say what you want about how much they paid them both, but the two offensive linemen will make life easier for Patrick Mahomes.
Even in their deal to get Brown, they surrendered a first-round pick but got back a second-rounder which was a steal when you consider they landed a franchise left tackle and dropped from No. 31 to No. 58 while giving up a third and fourth (and future fifth) to do so.
Also, with the 58th pick, they took Nick Bolton who should have no problem starting at linebacker. For good measure, they took Creed Humphrey with their own second-round selection, who should be a starting center one day.
So with all that being said, being forced to pick a worst move lands us on the signing of Kyle Long. The former first-round pick of the Chicago Bears back in 2013 was out of football in 2020 after retiring but Kansas City gave him a new place to play when he decided to come back.
Unfortunately, the 32-year-old has already suffered a knee injury which has them in a familiar spot — looking for someone to fill in for a starter.
