crennel's guy maybe?

could be a good sign.

He is

a young vet entering his prime years. Looks like he has the tools AND experience (20 + starts and has been in big games). I’m down.

Decent

Atleast this is not a practice squad guy…

Go Chiefs!!

I just want to know about the depleted LB core and DL/OL lines.

But, as Matt_Gurbac said, at least he’s not a practice squad guy…

There's no hope with dope...

Maybe

Pioli is starting his third wave FA signings. Should be some more names to come out soon I bet.

Go Chiefs!!

Fits the profile

Of the kind of guy we should be bringing in.

Not to naysay, but ...

With Leggett, Flowers and Carr, do we really need this guy … ?

I mean, sure, maybe he’ll grab a spot away from someone like Colclough or Macklin. But, it’s not as though this signing is really for a ‘position of need’.

And, yes, I get that he’s a warm body that’ll compete for a spot at training camp. But, why couldn’t we have spent some of this money on, say, a guy to fill in on the right side of the O-Line? Or, perhaps a decent Linebacker … ?

He does have one year more in the NFL than those 3 combined

And he’s coming out of a 3-4 system. Our take: probably necessary and wise, but disconcerting for the overall state of the D.

I have a feeling

That the general consensus of the ability of Flowers, Carr and Leggett, is overrated on AP, at least as it compares to what Pioli thinks.

Pioli probably sees that we were ranked (as I remember) 26th in pass D, and realizes it wasn’t just because of a lack of a pass rush.

Leggett in particular, I’m not sold on long term. His ROY win last year, was ridiculous. Not saying he’s bad, but it’ll help to have someone like Daniels, a guy who’s started in this league to compete with him.

Like Herm Says

Competition is always a good thing (which is probably true).

At the end of the day...

Its competition, men…obviously, we’re trying to get better…you just have to keep believing, men…I mean, you know, you know, you know, he’s gonna have to earn the job, he can’t count on other people to do it for him….he may think this is like Prom day…you know, he’s got his tux on, and lookin nice…but tomorrow, he’s gonna have to come to work like everyone else…

I have about 100 of these stored in my head from the last 3 years.

High School
When you go to the prom, you rent your tuxedo, you get one of those big limousines and you feel pretty good. The next day, you come to school, you’re driving a Volkswagen.

Haha

These quotes are hilarious. Try a quick Google search.

Maybe better than I remembered.

I bet he wont last more than a year

But with that said I’m not dissapointed we signed him. I’d rather have him than Macklin or Colclough (seen all I needed to see from them last season)

by KansasCityShuffle on Mar 10, 2009 4:09 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

its always nice to add some depth to any position.

I think we all could have wished we had depth at lb last year . And with our pass rush we probably will need some cb that can rotate since they will be running down people alot haha
