Pioli and Haley apparently only look at recycled scrubs who already showed they weren’t good enough to cut it in “Parcells” systems.

Way too many signings of “Parcells” guys who just aren’t good football players, IMO. I think they’ve got a pronounced tunnel vision on their player evaluation.

not even good enough to stick with Dallas but good enough for KC? and yeah, if he’s “in” then DJ is “out” … one more of The Right 53 no matter how talented or talentless he is

For the love of the football god, This!

Then why should we believe in what they’re trying to do?

Seriously, Reggie White signed with Green Bay when the NFL got free agency and left a dominant defense in Philly. Know why? Because a) Green Bay was willing to pay and b) Ron Wolf was a good GM who sold White on the team’s direction. The Chiefs have money, and if Pioli can’t convince good players to believe in his program enough to come here, then he’s not a good GM and his program is probably screwed.

Pioli’s reputation far exceeds him…he has a hell of a lot to live up to…palyers thought the same thing about Denver until they turned in a 5-0 season thus far.

So lets be real about this…we CAN get quality players…but you actually have to DO it. We haven’t done shit yet…

So I suspect we’ll never see him here.

I disagree with it, but I respect it

….A couple of years in the leauge will do wonders for a lot of players. Even if he is no more than a ST player or a stop-gap if DJ is traded, I don’t have a problem with picking him up. And I don’t care if Battle gets the axe because of it, he wasn’t opening any eyes.

1. Seymour is toward the back end of his career. I would have blown a gasket, and I suspect alot of others a well, if we had given the Pats a 1st round pick for an aging player who is in the final year of his contact and wanted to get PAID one more time. Not to mention, have you seen the Raiders? Seymour didn’t go in there and make some kind of massive impact, he’s been kinda quiet.

2. Seau would NEVER have come back to play for anyone except the Patriots or maybe the Dolphins(but I doubt that).

3. When Dawkins was available we were set at saftey, or so we thought, with Pollard and Page. He too is aging and he may very well have come out and played his age, can you say Donnie Edwards?

4. Haynesworth was tampered with by the Redskins, I and the Titans are sure of it. None the less, I would NEVER EVER EVER give Haynesworth a 100 million dollar contract, if you would have then I am glad you are not running the Chiefs organization. You and Snyder could go wipe your ass with your fan’s hard earned dollars up in Washington together.

5. Porter? I assume you mean Joey Porter? You can have him.

6. Everyone had thier crack at Sharper, dude wanted to play and no one wanted him. Kudos to the Saints for bringing him in, now they are reaping the benifits.

7. Boldin is a horse that fell out of the dead horse tree and has hit every branch on the way down and was hoisted back up and dropped again. I believe we seriously tried to get him, I really do. The Cards were probably asking way to much for him and I don’t think Pioli and Haley wanted to mortgage that much of the future on one player. Would have been a huge bang or bust situation…… ask Al Davis.

When this staff took over I think they wanted to sniff out just what kind of talent this team had and the only way to do that is competition, not practice and not preseason, real competition. Now they have seen where the fat needs trimming and what they can salvage. We may suffer through a long terrible season but this team in the long run will be better for it. Pioli is trying different avenues to get a spark on this team and if that means player competition then so be it. If that means lesser knowns get a shot, so be it. This season is already in the tank, lets get some positives out of it instead of panicing and blowing our load on some high priced over valued player. The offseason will be the when this staff will do it’s damage.
