First off, an explanation of how I am approaching this: I don't look at this list as the 10 most productive players necessarily, but rather how important they are to the team and how much their loss would be felt.

Kansas City Chiefs' Ed Podolak skirts the gang-up and runs for a first down against the Oakland Raiders in the game at Kansas City, Nov.

He was a slot receiver and a kick returner as a rookie and a running back last season.

The Kansas City Chiefs had over 20 free agents entering March this year and only a few of them are back in a Chiefs uniform.

Of the 16 in-house players who entered the market with unrestricted free agent status on March 13th, Kansas City has re-signed only one: CB "We talked to the agents shortly before the draft; some players said they wanted to wait until after the draft," GM Scott Pioli said.
