Chiefs QB Brodie Croyle Gets A Second Round Tender
On Thursday afternoon, Kansas City Chiefs QB Brodie Croyle said he would be back with the team in 2010.
Turns out he was right.
Scout's Adam Caplan reports the Chiefs tendered Croyle at the second round level.
That gives him a $1.759 million salary in 2010. If another team wishes to sign him, they can make him an offer. If the Chiefs choose to decline that (which they likely would), the team would have to give up a second round pick.
Why didn't the Chiefs tender him at the original pick level?
The difference in price between the original pick level (3rd round) and second round level is only $3,000 so it makes sense for the Chiefs.
As they do with just about every player, the Chiefs will listen to any offers for Croyle. If they were actively trying to move him, I would suspect they would have made that clear with an original pick tender.

You know
Id be a happy camper if someone bit on brodie and we got another 2nd rounder. It is time we get a fresh face for a backup quarterback. Brodie has never been the answer as a starter, or a backup here in KC.
Out of curisity
how is brodie not the answer as a backup? I understand wanting a second, but he’s probably one of the best backups in the NFL imo.

Brodie seems to be happy in KC
It’s a win – win.

i never heard of a tender for mays but that would be okay with me
i would to give him one more year in our system to grow….he showed flashes of brilliance last year and some signs of young player, but maybe another year of experience would balance that out
It’s where I get most of the info I hear. It’s invaluable for NFL fans.

Totally agree, sometimes I get to out gun Joel with the info on Twitter : )
Oh Joel, don’t forget to add Glenn Dorsey in the twitter section. That’s how I knew he was at LSU with Tyson today.
Yeah, let's just keep matriculatin' the ball down the field, boys! ...
twitter changed the Chiefs for the better
thanks to LJ’s incredible ego and stupidity
