Chiefs show interest in William and Mary's Safety Caldwell
Caldwell talked to several scouts Wednesday and said that representatives from the Kansas City Chiefs and the New England Patriots have expressed interest.
"When we have guys coming out and performing real well, it helps us," Caldwell said. "If Derek Cox hadn’t performed so well last year and made such an impact on the Jaguars, we wouldn’t have had as much attention on Adrian and Sean, and that gave players like myself an opportunity to go off of Adrian and Sean. You just have to use whatever you can use when you come from a small school that’s not used to putting out big name prospects."
Offseason winners - KC Chiefs
Nothing flashy in free agency, but added experience and depth to try to stabilize the interior of the line, and Thomas Jones very likely will be the best running back in free agency in 2009.
The Chiefs still lack playmakers, and this will be a process, but above all that, adding coordinators Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel is no small thing. With Weis there quarterback Matt Cassel should have a proven infrastructure in place and every chance to succeed.

Drinking the Berry Juice
Add former GM Casserly to the list with Kiper Jr, McShay, Lomardi, Banks all drinking the Berry Juice selecting Eric Berry to the Kansas City Chiefs. In this video he talks about why there is a reason Crennel was probably there to run the Berry show.
Let's hope these experts are correct... all makes sense to me. Also the video on Eric Berry's tryouts on NFL.com that talk about his toe, the panel mentioned it could be very likely he goes to Kansas City.

Chiefs to have private workout with punter
Scout.com has learned that three teams, the Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles and New England Patriots, have scheduled workouts with one of the top punters in the 2010 NFL Draft, Michigan’s Zoltan Mesko. Mesko will work out for the Chiefs on March 26th, the Eagles on March 30th and the Patriots on April 14th or 15th; all workouts will be conducted at the University of Michigan.
I have to admit, this one surprises me...

Spikes will be test case on importance of forty times
Spikes is known as an instinctive, tough player. He's a classic inside linebacker for 3-4 teams, and there aren't a lot out there.
Before the forty time came out, the general consensus was that Spikes was roughly an early second round pick. We've now heard he could slip as late as rounds 4-5. ESPN's Todd McShay said Thursday Spikes could still go in round two or three.
A league source says Spikes met with Mike Tomlin and the Steelers staff Tuesday, and Bill Belichick Thursday, so the 3-4 teams are interested
Small school CB Owusu-Ansah impresses at pro day
Akwasi Owusu-Ansah (6-foot, 5/8, 207) has really shown his worth to pro scouts this offseason. Not a household name, Owusu-Ansah played college ball for Indiana Pa. and worked out at Ohio States' pro day on March 12th. This talented CB has been on the Chiefs' radar as previously reported on AP.
He built on his solid NFL Scouting Combine workout with an outstanding pro day. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.33 and 4.41 seconds, had a 4.19-second short shuttle and did 21 bench press repetitions at 225 pounds.
I'd be more than happy to see this guy in red and gold next year.

WR Kevin Curtis released.
Battled injuries the last few seasons and could just not be worth keeping around in Philly because of the emurgence of Maclin and Jackson. Worth a look? Maybe. Good hands WR but again a little injury prone as of late. He'll definetly get some attention somewhere though,
Jets OLB Pace Sad Jones is gone.
"Obviously, I don't think (the decision to cut Jones) had anything to do with his ability to perform on the field," Pace told PFW. "… There's no question about his ability. I'm sure it was business. In that aspect, I'm kind of sad to see him go. Plus, he was a great guy and a great leader in the locker room."
Wanna live like Carl Peterson?...Now you can
Former Chief’s General Manager Carl Peterson may be long gone from river city, but his Country Club Plaza penthouse was just listed for sale for a cool $4.25 million.
The building at 433 Ward Parkway is quite the party pad. The adjacent penthouse belongs to Annette Bloch, widow of H&R Block co-founder of Richard Bloch. Former Chief’s head coach Herm Edwards still owns a condo there as well.
So there you have it AP, here's your chance to party with Herm like it was 2007!

What about Croyle?
So shouldn't there be some kind of market for Croyle? He's kind of small and scrawny and doesn't look the part of an NFL quarterback like the bigger Whitehurst does. But I can tell you from years of watching Croyle on the practice fields at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls that he can make all of the throws an NFL quarterback needs to make...While Croyle will likely return to KC for at least one more season, the situation bears watching.
So AP, should KC try and deal Croyle this offseason or hold onto him as a solid backup for Cassel?
