The Kansas City Chiefs are a team that tends to go after big-name players, and there’s a strong chance Von Miller could be a target for them as well.

They have a solid pass-rushing group in George Karlaftis and Charles Omenihu, but this shouldn’t stop a championship-caliber team like the Chiefs from attacking free agency.

Kansas City to Potentially Sign Von Miller?

Before this offseason, one would argue that Miller deserved $10+ Million per year, but seeing a much younger Joey Bosa replace him in Buffalo for just $12 million makes it far more likely he sees a smaller deal. Something along the lines of a one-year seven-million deal could work out with the Chiefs.

Von Miller Still Elite?

Von Miller’s pass-rushing technique is one of the primary reasons he remains effective at his age. He is a master of the craft, utilizing a variety of moves to that has offensive lineman on their back-foot.

His ability to convert speed into power is what sets him apart. Whether he’s using a quick spin move, a deadly inside rush, or simply timing his jumps perfectly to exploit the pocket, Miller still has the skills to wreck havoc.

Miller has always been known for his quick first step, and even with a few years on his body, he still possesses an exceptional first step off the line of scrimmage.

His ability to dip low and turn the corner on tackles, as well as his hand placement on his inside moves make him a nightmare for any lineman tasked with stopping him.

What to Expect:

Adding Miller would give the Chiefs a situational pass rusher for clear-cut passing downs like a second-long, and all third downs. He rushed primarily off the left side for his three years with Buffalo, but could kick to the right side to pair with Karlaftis.

Currently it seems like Miller’s name is going under the radar, but he’s still clearly the best pass rusher on the open market.
