Chiefs general manager Brett Veach has been a busy man this offseason.
Over the course of the last two months, Veach has jettisoned a Pro Bowl quarterback (Alex Smith) and two team icons (linebackers Tamba Hali and Derrick Johnson), all in the name of getting younger and clearing salary-cap space. He has also jettisoned a young and wildly talented but mercurial cornerback, Marcus Peters, in an attempt to head off the on- and off-field distractions that might've resulted from a probable holdout over a new contract.
But despite being strapped for cash, Veach has also managed to make some improvements, too.
