Wow, 2 big "sounding" names. I don't think I would be interested in either....

Maybe Ellis, MAYBE.

My bold prediction and I think our best chance at moving down in the 1st. Bret Favre retires, Tavarris Jackson is not retained or leaves and the Vikings trade up, with our beloved Chiefs, for Jimmy Claussen.

WRITE IT DOWN!

no neither

im surprised at the Faiders, are they trying to get better?

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.....

I think Walker's retiring

They had to talk him back to the team last year.

Ouch

Oh Al...

Only he would have given that deal. Not sure if he has gotten soft in his old age to stick with Javon or if its just a testament to his huge ego. Who knows?

oh, see below, i guess they do know

Ellis

was a “bright spot” on that line (if you can call it that). i know a lot of people in Oakland who would have wanted him to keep Ellis and waive Warren.

by bansky on Mar 8, 2010 5:17 PM CST reply actions

agreed

I wouldn’t mind seeing Ellis worked out for KC

Me too...

we need a situational pass rusher on the strong side very badly and he would fit the bill. Him or Joey Porter.

Draft prediction top 10 - 1. Bradford 2. Suh (Chiefs trade up) 3. McCoy 4. Claussen (trade Campbell to Carolina, trade for J Brown) 5. Okung (Detroit) 6. Berry 7. Haden 8. Campbell 9. Davis (Bills trade for Vick) 10. Morgan (Jags draft Tebow in 2nd round) 2/23/09 --> This will probably not happen, I was smoking crack at the time. Please Disregard.

WRITE IT DOWN!

by BigRedChief on Mar 8, 2010 5:22 PM CST reply actions

I'm not sure.

There are a lot of Raiders that would challenge for that spot.

by JacinB on Mar 8, 2010 5:22 PM CST up reply actions

Now theres a power list...

Something the Raiders would definately win at…

From kcsno56's above comment:

Peter King: "Walker: $21 million for 15 catches and 1 touchdown in Oakland over two years."

Sounds like a winner to me.

I'd say that's impossible to beat.

Even with some healthy competition.

Actually I thought Weak Tendons was the funniest on the list.

by leonchief on Mar 9, 2010 5:34 AM CST up reply actions

couldnt believe it when they paid walker that much money

then I remember the story where he approached al davis to get out of the deal(to the benefit of the raiders money wise because he was ashamed of his play) and al davis talked him into staying….good call Al.

Scott Pioli will find a way to make NT the biggest offseason priority.
KC Will Trade Derrick Johnson

Maybe the Redskins take a look at Javon Walker

As for Ellis, he has had good production in the 34 defense, but he is also 34 years old. Not sure where he fits on this team. We already have a pass rusher on the right side (Tamba Hali) and Mike Vrabel will stay put for at least another year.

I think Ellis will find a suitor though. Maybe New England, Denver, or Dallas.
