It's the Chiefs.

"feel good" is really subject to something of a sliding scale.

"Does it feel like someone's jamming a hot poker up your urethra? No? Just a regular room temperature poker? Fantastic then, see how much better that feels?"

At this point I'm ok with risk....wtf do we have to lose?

clark's money

Honestly, I'm with DJ on this signing.


It's a show us what you've got deal, to a guy who has shown to be a pretty good back.

bevischief 03-14-2012 05:44 PM

I hope they draft his replacement in the draft...

Chiefs Pantalones 03-14-2012 05:44 PM

Meh, rather have Tolbert.

wazu 03-14-2012 05:44 PM

Like this signing. Great pairing we have at RB. Huge upgrade here.

ChiefMojo 03-14-2012 05:44 PM

With Tolbert still visiting KC, I'm hoping we get both Hillis and Tolbert to go with Charles and to an extent McCluster. We could go beast mode on teams with that backfield!

Chiefnj2 03-14-2012 05:45 PM

This is the type of signing you make 3-4 weeks into free agency. This isn't any type of long term solution or plan.

Bringing in somebody Cassel can compete with is not good enough.

Why?

Tolbert has never had 1,700 yards from scrimmage.

Discuss Thrower 03-14-2012 05:45 PM

What's really worrying is (and someone else here has already said this) is that it is setting up a run first offensive attack to protect Cassel's shortcomings.. As counterproductive as that is.

NJChiefsFan 03-14-2012 05:46 PM

I really like this move. The only thing that makes me not a little iffy is that I like Tolbert so much. I think Tolbert is kinda a sure-thing as far as what you can predict. Hillis is a little bit of a wild card. I do believe his head will be on straight.

I will say this, I think Hillis has more upside than Tolbert. Hillis has had some sick games when he is going right. Also probably won't mind playing Denver, although you could say that about Tolbert and SD.

Strongside 03-14-2012 05:46 PM

I know he's had some ups and downs, but I've always been a fan of this guy. While I would have liked to have Tolbert, I think Hillis has something to prove and will kick ass in Kansas City.
