mike danna is tied to a Chiefs edge-rush conversation that stretches beyond Cam Jordan, with Joey Bosa discussed as one of four intriguing unsigned options. Kansas City already added R Mason Thomas in the second round of last month’s draft, but the search for rotational help did not end there.
Joey Bosa and Buffalo
Bosa spent last season with the Buffalo Bills, and Kansas City would likely look for him to handle a similar workload if the Chiefs added him. That makes him a short-term fit rather than a full-time answer, which is the point of bringing him into the discussion in the first place.
Cam Jordan, Clowney, Thomas
Cam Jordan was described as a worthy pass-rush option that many people had pointed out, keeping him in the same group as Bosa and Jadeveon Clowney. Clowney has 23.5 sacks over the last three seasons, a number that keeps him in the same veteran lane even as Kansas City weighs younger pieces such as Thomas.
Ashton Gillotte and Kansas City
The Chiefs' interest in another edge rusher also lines up with the chance to give Ashton Gillotte veteran experience around the room. The conversation is about unsigned help, not a done deal, and that keeps the focus on which veteran could fit the workload Kansas City wants without blocking the rookie the team already drafted.
