Will Chiefs Be Involved In Upcoming Trade Deadline?

The time is nearing, the deadline looming. Fans of all sports love the times of year where player movement is accelerated and encouraged, so of course, we're curious to see what could happen both in the NFL and with the Chiefs.

This time around, we're a team that looks headed for the top of the draft again, just like this last year. A few wins on the back nine of the schedule could bring us down into the 6-10 region of the Top Ten in the 2010 NFL Draft, but there's no way we're outside that realm. Therefore, we're definitely not buyers this time of year.

So if we're sellers, who are we selling? Or will we stand pat? It's hard to say since trades in the NFL aren't nearly as commonplace as the other major sports and with the uncertainty of the labor situation, it's hard to imagine much really going down. But then one look at the Braylon Edwards trade having already taken place, and you realize you just can't forecast much of anything in today's NFL.

With that said, I also can't imagine the Chiefs not doing something, considering both the state of the franchise and the Chiefs' front office penchant for picking up players. Perhaps no single team has signed more free agents in-season already so they're not afraid to pull the trigger if they believe it gets them a better deal.

My personal hope? That we can pick up some draft picks. I like it that we already have an extra second rounder (still wish we had Tony as I think it's a horrible trade), but we also traded some conditional picks away (see the Dolphins deal for Andy Alleman and Ike Ndukwe). So we'd love to hear your thoughts as the trade deadline gets closer. Who do you think could be dealt? Or do you think we stand pat?

Chiefs have been on the wrong side too many times lately

Hate to say it...

but, i wouldn’t be shocked if DJ is traded…
though, I think that’d be a mistake as well.

Maybe the Chiefs get aggressive and trade to fill positions of need?

My real guess: nothing happens.

I agree

DJ is just not cutting it… he can’t stay healthy and when he is healthy, he’s flat out inconsistent. The worst move would be to hang on to him and give him a big contract. If they can trade him, great.

I’d also love for LJ to be dealt to a RB needy team like New England

by golfbard on Oct 12, 2009 1:49 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

DJ...

I thought he has played well all year when given a chance…
It just seems fishy that he’s not playing at all anymore, especially given the struggles this team has had on pass defense, which is his strength

IF he’s not in their plans, I hope they do trade him.

LJ…. well, he probably has little or no trade value at this point

Definitely

They have made it pretty clear that DJ isn’t in this team’s plans for the future. Talent-wise the guy is clearly our most skilled linebacker, and was projected to make a leap coming into this season as a ILB. But for whatever reason, they aren’t going to give him a shot.

It could be that they don’t want to bother investing in an inconsistent player next year when he is due a larger contract, or they simply might not see him as a good fit for the defense they are trying to build. For this reason I think that they should definitely try to ship him off for something, as letting him walk won’t benefit us with any conditional picks because of the quantity we will have to sign next offseason.

by Clarry on Oct 12, 2009 2:25 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I dont know whay people talk like that about DJ.....

DJ averages 6 tackles a game, Thats better then 80% of the players at his posistion. He also had 4 FF last year, and 2 every year the last 2 years. He has made more big plays this year then any other player on our team. He is the most talented defensive player we have besides flowers. Were feeling the effects of Pollard not being here already, we need him on the feild. Unless we get a 1st for him.

Trading Waters would be a ridiculously stupid move.

Might as well go ahead and scrap the whole 2010 season if you do that.

Why?

He’s an aging guard on the wrong side of 30. He’ll likely be worse next year than this year. If someone will pay a 3rd or 4th rounder for him, why not get it?

Predictions for 2009

1. Todd Haley's going to struggle with managing his staff in his rookie year as head coach.
6. The Chiefs will go 7-9 in 2009, good for 2nd in the AFC West. Revision: We go 5-11 and finish behind Oakland.
7. Ryan Succop will not perform better in 2009 than Connor Barth did in 2008.
8. The Chiefs will have a bottom 10 defense this year.
9. RB will be a problem area this season on offense.

by UCrawford on Oct 12, 2009 3:43 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Better than Goff or Niswanger for sure.

If we trade him, that keeps us from having any consistency at that position until we bring in a draft pick or FA. No free agents want to come here so, we won’t get a great player that way. We can’t possibly fill ALL the holes on the O-line in one offseason.

We need Waters here until he retires to provide leadership to the young guys on the line and to give us consistency at at least one position. If we get a LT with the 1st pick, then, we could move Albert over I guess but, we still need to solidify RG and Center. There is NO WAY that Pioli will spend 3 high draft [picks on the O-line when we have so many other needs as well that should be addressed. S, LB, RB, WR, etc.

True

Or very little, anyway. We just don’t have enough decent players to trade away…or that anyone would give us much for.

Personally, I’d trade LJ for a six-pack and some Nachos. But, that’s just me.

By my estimation

We need:

4 Offensive Lineman. (Maybe 3 if Waters holds up or O’Callahan improves enough to stay at RT.

3 or 4 Linebackers

1 receiver. (Wade/Bradley are a servicable #3 and slot and both are still youngish)

1 Safety

I think we are ok at Corner. Both Leggett and Washington are still really young. We were a little spoiled with how well Carr and Flowers played so young. I think they both have talent and should improve.

We aren’t going to fill these needs in the draft. Even if we trade to get more picks. Plus the draft is the big unknown. We are going to need to pick up some solid free agents.

Here Are Three Moves I Try to Make If I'm Pioli

Thomas Jones isnt cutting it and with that O-line I think LJ could have some mileage there. He is a pounder that with their defense allows him to wear out the clock. I’d take a 3rd or 4th for him and eat half the contract to move him. Kolby Smith will be back soon.

Second move, Dorsey to a 4-3 team for a young o-lineman with some talent and a 3rd round pick.

Third Move DJ shipped out to a team like the Titans who have under-performing talent. I would take a pick and/or another o-lineman.

by Ryan in Nixa on Oct 12, 2009 2:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Dorsey

has been showing up. Why would you want to trade him? He is much improved this year and I think he will continue to get better.

While we are at it lets trade Bowe, Cassel, Flowers, Albert and Jackson. Get as many picks for them as we can. Not sure how to use the sarcasm print but this second paragraph is drenched in it. :)

Don't blame me, I voted for content of character.

by paratrooper on Oct 12, 2009 4:15 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I agree

Dorsey has been our best DL so far this season, and I believe that he’s just going to keep getting better. If we did trade him I’d want a top 15 pick in the 1st round along with a 3rd….or a lower 1st rd pick along with the other team’s 2nd. We’ve already paid him $$$ for his rookie ‘learning’ year & we’d be giving him away as he’s entering his prime, with 3-4 years left on his contract. I really don’t want to trade him, but that’d be the minimum asking price if I were in charge.

by jmcgoblue on Oct 12, 2009 6:19 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

If we did any big buying I would guess it would be for help on the o-line, just to keep Cassell alive throughout the season.

I would be happy if they got anything for LJ since we thought there may be a chance of him being cut before the season.
If we could get a third/fourth rounder or a solid tackle for him, that would be a huge success. He would probably be more successful somewhere else.

The Chiefs wish list for next year’s draft seems to be getting longer – now it seems like we need a new RB as well. In addition to needing o-lineman, I would not be surprised if Pioli used a high draft pick on a nose tackle.

by zbschiefs on Oct 12, 2009 2:13 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

I'd be happy with a 2011 7th rounder for LJ

seriously, he’s not going to bring much, if anything at all.

I really, really, really hope they dont’ spend a high pick on a NT.

There are no NT's worth a high pick this year.

And to ZBS, every season adds to your needs if you can’t get in fromt of the curve :)

Sorry Thomas Jones plays for the Jets

So Shop LJ to the Jets
Shop Dorsey to a team missing a 4-3 T like I hate to say it ..San Diego.
DJ to the Falcons to help shore up their defense that has been leaky early on and don’t forget has Belichik ties with their GM.

In reality Dorsey could go to the Falcons whom I believe employ a 4-3 I’ll have to check.

I bet

Atlanta has called Pioli inquiring about him. They need help on the D-Line bad, and there’s that NE histrory between Dimitrov & Pioli. If they offered their next two #1s I’d say go for it.

by jmcgoblue on Oct 12, 2009 6:27 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

San Diego runs a 3-4...

Why trade Dorsey at all. You wont get fair value for him if you do. A late 1st rounder isnt worth it. So unless the Titans want Dorsey or some other top 12 pick. You just dont trade the 5th pick 2 years ago for the 25th now.

by darwithabar on Oct 12, 2009 6:11 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

RB?

Do we really need another RB? I would like to see Haley give Charles, Savage, or Battle a shot. What could they do with 20 touches a game? They may not be any better than LJ…but I’m sure ready to find out. How do we really know what we have, until these guys get a chance?

by Scott B. on Oct 12, 2009 2:22 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

agreed.

cut LJ, give Charles the primary carries, use Battle on short yardage.

why not?

I can’t think of ONE good reason why they shouldn’t try that.

haley said that it’s a numbers game, and someone has to be inactive each week…
well, inactivate LJ, and see what happens!!!!

by stagdsp on Oct 12, 2009 2:25 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

The only thing, in my opinion, stopping

Charles from getting more touches is himself. I think Haley will give him more when he can consistently show that he can hang on to the ball. What LJ gives the team now is not rushing yards, but also not a game changing turnover.

by Ilamuku on Oct 12, 2009 2:33 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Also agree

I have always been an LJ supporter, but yesterday definitely showed me that his success with this team is over. I could be wrong, but he just wasn’t running with any emphasis at all. At least throw in Battle back there and let him barrel into that O-line with a little more desire. Spread some touches around and see if anything can work behind the big fellas.

by Clarry on Oct 12, 2009 2:35 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Dorsey

…First of all, San Diego runs a 3-4, not a 4-3. Second of all, Glenn isn’t going anywhere. He has been our best DL this season despite what the numbers say. He’s proving that you don’t have to be 6’4" to play well at the 3-4 DE.

I agree that LJ doesn’t have a whole lot of trade value, unless NE were involved. Even then, we’d be lucky to get a 6th.

DJ realistically seems to have the best “chance” at wearing a new uniform this year. Personally, I like him and would love to see him get some real playing time here in KC.

Bingo, Dorsey looked great yesterday.

Sure he only had 4 tackles but 1 was for a loss and the other 3 right at the line of scrimmage. Once Jackson gets a season under his belt I think we’ll be really happy with both those picks.

I think the window of opportunity to trade DJ

is closed now. I was screaming all off season to trade his ass. I felt pretty sure he wasn’t going to umm, impress this new regime. (in fact, before the season started, I told Petro on his “Red Zone” show that I’d bet him a beer that DJ wouldn’t
 be the starter by week 4)

 He’ll be a FA after this season, be lucky if you could get a 5th or 6th rounder for him at this point. The guy is TOO fucking soft! He drives me crazy! Give me Demorrio Williams over him every day of the week and twice on Sunday over a guy like DJ.

by JohnNdallas on Oct 12, 2009 2:35 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

DJ, Waters, LJ, Dorsey

DJ could be an option because I dont think haley likes him but hes not bad. He would have some market value but the only problem is we’re deleveraged. he is an FA after this season so if you’re a team that wants him why not wait a few months.

Waters is perfect trade fodder. his replacement is already on the team (Albert) so you use him to get a LT

LJ is at that hump age. RB is the skill position that most teams have a good one of so he is going to be hard to get anything out of. use him as a change up back or let him go. I hate saying this though because i appreciate his effort thus far this year.

Dorsey is an option but i would only support this if is a player for player trade and we obviously get an upgrade. otherwise he is too good to speculate on draft picks with.

-another point. all these guys are the teams top earners, esp waters and LJ. this is already a cheap team so if they go, we are rolling in cap liquidity

Congratulations to him for fooling Pioli and Haley enough to make the opening day roster…so he could cash in on his one last big payday. I was hoping they saw something I didn’t…but I can’t for the life of me figure out what it was.

both Lanier and Charles bring up VERY unlikely scenarios

IF the Chiefs got the # 1 pick (which they won’t, thanks to the Rams and Browns)…
they are VERY unlikely to be able to trade out of it (see the Chiefs ’07 and ’08 drafts)

AND

Tebow will NOT go #1, or probably even in the first round… so that’s a non-issue

I bet if we still had Tony G right now, we would be 2-3 instead of 0-5.

Just sayin’.

Chiefsfan1970,

We already traded one MVP on offense. It’s hard to know what Pioli might be thinking, though. I’d say no one is “off limits”.

by Chiefsfan1970 on Oct 12, 2009 4:04 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

True...

Having Tony still would give us a better chance to win now…

The difference between trading him and Bowe is that Bowe is 25 and about to go into his prime…

Tony is 33 and…wait hes the greatest TE ever… hah…no really good argument for trading tony, but Bowe is staying.

Besides, Bowe wants to be here and Tony didn’t…

Preach it Coach!

Haley just said in his presser pretty much the same thing I said about Williams above.

D. Williams is exactly what any Coach wants. Hard nosed, tenacious, and unafraid.

DJ is a player that drives Coaches crazy, all the physical tools in the world but to big a pussy to use them.

I had a bit of a rant prior to pre season about LJ

and totally agreed with UC about him. They should have gotten rid of him prior to the regular season. Back then I was told I was basically crazy and to hush up about such nonsense. What I think now still stands, he needs to be traded or sat down and let the others behind him on the roster come out and play ball and prove themselves.

There's a big one that should go

Larry Johnson needs to go and now. Even the play by play guys can see he’s running at half speed. With all that Haley’s done with players in the past I can’t believe he’s even still on the team, If it was up to me he’d be playing at Raytown South High right now. This guy’s been a pain in the butt from the first day in pads.

A man who says he can, and a man who says he can't are both right. Which one are you?

im getting sick

of draft picks. This draft class looks shitty. We need established players.

I feel like

They are allowing LJ to have most of the carries so they trade him. That would explain why he is still the number one running back bacause he isn’t trying at all.

Yeah sure looks like a LJ trade...

Doesn’t sound like he’s worth much though.

Sure hope they keep Mayes

He’s a gamer, watched him play at ND and he was one of few roses among thorns.

Keep LJ

lets keep LJ make him inactive the rest of the season. show him that he should try to be the old LJ.

The one reason I'd trade DJ is he is a free agent but...

…restricted by the uncapped year. He will sign with another team for good money and I doubt they’d match it.

We will trade DJ...

and the team that gets him will use him as a pass rusher/ blitz specialist, and he’ll kill us.
