* KC now has the best coaching staff in the league
* Pioli will make at least one trade in the offseason, and 2 trades during the draft
* I'd prefer "lightning and lightning" as opposed to "lightning and thunder" when it comes to RBs
* 9-7 is a real possibility in 2010 IF the Chiefs get 4 new starters
* keep Albert at LT, upgrade the positions that NEED upgrading.C, RG, NT, S, LB

Couldn't King have just as easily said KC instead of
BAL? He’s not reporting anything new.

Somehow I'm not surprised.
The Chiefs never try too hard going out and getting good FA’s. Oh well there’s always next years Free Agency… oh wait nvm

boohoo
who cares, he’s not worth a 2nd, now if I found out that we didn’t try and give the 3rd I might be mad.
If I hear...
that comment one more time my head is going to explode.

nope i think this comes down to our 3rd or balt's 2nd
we can offer the best deal in round 3 the ravens are going to have to give up there second to get him
hes missed 16 games over his entire career hardly injury prone

I cant wait to see the NEW ARROWHEAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chiefs will be competing for a division title in 2010
Agreed, we could def. use both
Would also give us more leverage in negotiations with Chambers.
damn
still nothing for us? what is going on?
Regardless of who the Chiefs pick at #5 overall, Whitlock will call it the worst pick in the history of the Chiefs. Heres to hoping that #5 pick runs Whitlock out of town.....
Pioli
is officially starting to piss my off, he definitely isn’t trying to hard to bring value to the Chiefs, by not resigning Chambers and not getting Boldin, I’m now jumping off the Pioli Train
Lol...
Nothing is set in stone yet negative nancy.

The sky is falling!!
You have no idea what is going on behind the scenes, relax!
Don't blame me, I voted for content of character.
You ever think
that maybe Chambers wanted to test the market first? See what kind of offers he could get before re-signing here?
Dont let the door hit a where the good lord split ya!
We dont need fairweather fans like you anyways.
Just because he does not want to give up a vaulable pick in the draft where he can get just a big of an impact player that is MUCH younger makes Pioli a “dumbass” Great logical thinking there. Glad that you are not the GM!

overpaying for Boldin
is NOT value
I’m all for Boldin as long as The Don does his thing and gets it for what we want to pay, but no more.

TY Joel....
I got an Facebook…and Nick Wright.is saying that if Balt gives a second…Boldin will go there if not hes the Chiefs….
WE lost to WHO?

Pure speculation
Although that appears to be the case
Maybe...
But Nick Wright seemed to be able find information about the Chiefs before…

Let's see if this actually happens.
And if it does, wait to see what deal the Ravens give them before condemning Pioli
I doubt he’s giving up just to spite fans.. I really don’t want him giving a second rounder for Boldin… certainly nothing more than ONE of them
This is what I'm talking about
taking the shit leftovers. Not getting the top players and getting the next best thing. This kind of mentality is what has led us to this many bad years. Very disappointed and frustrated. I hope that in the next few days we have better news
by ChiefsFanInTexas on Mar 5, 2010 4:36 PM CST reply actions
Depending on what the Ravens give up for him
they can have him. If it takes a 2nd to get him, that’s not something a team in the Chiefs position should be doing, even with two 2nd’s.
Well...
A 2nd round pick in a really deep draft could be a top player cough-Flowers-cough

The Ravens...
are probably offering their 2nd and 5th. We win if we offer our 2b and 5c. Is Q worth that? I vote yes.

not worth giving up 2 picks in this years draft
let them offer a 2nd and 5th, a 3rd is all I would give
hahahahhahahahahahhahahahah

why not a second?
Our late one. He’s a proven hardnosed player.

Pioli loves his seconds
at the table and in the draft!
Regardless of who the Chiefs pick at #5 overall, Whitlock will call it the worst pick in the history of the Chiefs. Heres to hoping that #5 pick runs Whitlock out of town.....
Because
For a team that has as many holes as the Chiefs, a 2nd should be a long term contributor, not a 30 year old WR.
Not at the expense of the future
We went 4-12 last year. We’re not magically going to become a playoff team this year. I understand it’s frustrating, but we need to be patient. Build through the draft, pick up key players here and there without hurting the future of the team.
That's actually not true.
We really could MAGICALLY become a playoff team. I’m picturing Pioli as a leprechan, granting wishes to Chiefs fans.

Per Ravens beat writer:
Ravens are looking into WR trade target Anquan Boldin’s medical history, Cardinals have released them, per a league source.
Well atleast Todd already knows about his med history.
by readANDgold58 on Mar 5, 2010 4:41 PM CST up reply actions
is this just protocol
because everyone should know his medical records/conditions
Regardless of who the Chiefs pick at #5 overall, Whitlock will call it the worst pick in the history of the Chiefs. Heres to hoping that #5 pick runs Whitlock out of town.....
Why they are sifting through his medical files googling all the medical lingo...
…Pioli makes the deal!
While Boldin would be an upgrade check this statement out from CNNSI.
When Boldin was out of the lineup with injuries the past two seasons, Arizona actually had a better record and higher receiving production without him.
thats because of 4 words

and they have real WR depth
we don’t

That might explain why the Cards want to trade him
but our record without him in the lineup was 4-12

You have to think Golden Tate or Demaryius Thomas falls to the second round if
Baltimore trades for Boldin.
Agreed
Thomas definitely will. Tate may be available at 2a, but I wouldn’t hold my breath.
hopeful thinking gets a team nowhere.
teams must capitalize on times like these.

Only people who carry the opinions of others need the support of others.

Someone please phone Pioli on his cellphone....
He could be on vacation somewhere sunning himself with a margarita which is a worry :(…..Explain its the free agency I bet hes forgot!!
Explain we need to sign some quality players because we`ve sucked since Jan. 16, 1994 and its about time we actually pushed the boat out and spent some fricken money on QUALITY players instead of hoping we might draft 6 studs or unearth a team of gems from other teams misfits and castoffs :)
Please sign Kevin Walter and Thomas Jones and I will be happy :)
Hold on a minute….is Willie Parker a free agent too :)

I thought Thomas Jones is going to Detroit. What did I miss?
Pardon me for working for a few minutes and becoming distracted from my full-time job reading AP!
Yea, I really think this is a done deal
King usually has his shit together unlike Chris “Shanahan to KC” Mortensen
by ChiefsFanInTexas on Mar 5, 2010 4:59 PM CST reply actions
Pioli should give up our 3rd rounder this year, and our
fourth rounder next year. Get it done, but don’t give up one of our seconds — not in this draft.
My $.02.
I think its been a series of unfortunate events for him
he’s a fearless receiver so he’s taken some hard hits. Whatever team gets him next just hopes that he is not so unlikely as before.
by ChiefsFanInTexas on Mar 5, 2010 5:04 PM CST up reply actions
Boldin probably doesnt want to go to the Chiefs. Im guessing he could effectively block the trade by refusing to sign long term with them.
I
Believe he said he would be open to the idea… And an update Ravens offer looks like a 3rd and considering a late round pick in next years draft
Boldin could easily block his trade to the Chiefs, because a longterm deal would have to be signed. No offense but Id rather go to the Ravens, plus he is from the east coast.
no offense to you
but take your opinions and keep them on BTFB, ohh wait no one over there talking football? If you would rather talk Ravens then by all means go to their website AirNorval.

All of you saying bring in the impact free agent
Might want to become Redskins fans. Or better yet, start following the Raiders.
Big time signings are not the Pioli way, it’s just not gonna happen, unless he can get amazing value (see Randy Moss for 4th round pick).
He’s built championship to top tier competitive teams in the past with this system. Be patient, it will work.
by Your_Moms_Boyfriend on Mar 5, 2010 5:07 PM CST reply actions
I second this, especially considering the "impact"
of a wide receiver that has had injury issues. Not saying he’d have them here, just that I don’t think it’s fair to get pissed at anyone for not selling our team’s soul for Free Agents
As Chiefs fans we should know exactly where that lands you, evidenced by the twilight years of Peterson and Vermeil
It's hard to be patient
as you see other shitty teams becoming more optimistic about their team with big signings. But I guess you gotta trust Pioli in that he knows what he’s doing.
by ChiefsFanInTexas on Mar 5, 2010 5:13 PM CST up reply actions
I might be wrong
But wasn’t it Boldin that Haley butted heads with in the playoffs in Haleys last season in Arizona? I didn’t think their relationship was ever very good.
Don't give up on Pioli yet
Cassel trade was done on the saturday of free agency. He’ll do something soon and we can breath again.
