Bowe and Dorsey for Manning?

Would you give up a top ten receiver and a DE playing out of position for the magical Manning? No gaurantees Manning will even get back to 80% of his old self, no gaurantees he will play well outside on grass for most of the season. Huge risk for a possible huge reward. My gut tells me with Peyton under center Baldwin would more than fill Bowe's old shoes.

No

Not when Manning is likely going to be cut by Indy because of owed money and Indy looking to rebuild.

I don't get all the trade talk.

He’s not going to be traded, he’ll be cut. The bonus he is set to receive is before trades can be made and Manning’s camp isn’t going to move that back just to help out the team that’s kicking him to the curb.

Do we want to spend the money on Peyton and can we make him an offer that will lure him here? Are we willing to put the pieces around him?

yes and yes

I was once fired from a job two days after I waited on Matt Cassel and his wife Lauren Killian. Totally my AP moment to remember. Unfortunately also one of my stupidest moments.

Nope

Cause the colts aren’t going to be able to trade him.
1 no trades until the league year starts.
2 league year doesn’t start until AFTER 28million bonus is due (Condon has said that they will NOT push back Mannings bonus date)
3 Manning will be either cut or kept – and it sure looks like cut

Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting 'Holy ****... What a Ride!'

With Peyton under C an average WR could fill Bowe's shoes

but my guess would be Manning and Wayne would be a package deal so trade Bowe and bring Wayne in as a stopgap for 3 or so years while Baldwin develops.
Crazy scenario that probably wouldn’t happen but not a bad one

But Manning is probably getting cut.

I can’t see this happening.

When you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail.

Jamaal above all. #25 ftw.

CHIEFS WILL!

What does Manning getting cut

have to do with anything I wrote?

Maybe you should explain trading bowe when you dont have to.

by km230015 on Feb 3, 2012 2:54 PM CST up reply actions 1 recs

No need to trade bowe

but if you get Manning you can let Bowe go in FA

Clark Hunt and Scott Pioli need to IMPRESS me in 2012....No Settling this year Chiefs Fans!!

get multiple picks that would improve the team in other areas

Because if he doesn’t want to re-sign then he would just walk to free agency without us getting anything in return. Anyone who knows football should have been able to put that one together

If it came down to a trade after manning redoes deal

Yes i would make that trade. The chiefs would have a great qb for three or four years and they can find another de and wr in that time. Will it happen that way? No. Would i do it? In a heartbeat. Would the chiefs have a top 5 offense..? Probably

by Kcbiggyblue on Feb 3, 2012 1:49 PM CST via mobile reply actions

fu$#k it

Keep both guys, sign Manning in FA

No need to give away 2 of KCs best

by stagdsp on Feb 3, 2012 2:08 PM CST via mobile reply actions

How about our first round picks for the next 4 years.. This peyton manning to KC crap is getting old. How often does Pioli ever do anything we think makes sense.. I realize there isnt anything better to talk about but come on
