hmm. Cox got 4 years X 20 mil. So we might be overpaying a bit, but that's par for the course with us this offseason.

He's right; pretty outstanding counter-punch.

Flowers can deal with Decker, who's a technician as a route-runner but isn't physically overpowering. Smith would be a nice counter to Thomas in that he's one of the few guys in the league with the size to match up with him who also has the athleticism to hang with him. Robinson is a great matchup for Welker in that he's physical enough to knock him off routes and spend the day beating him up if necessary (Abdullah then plays FS).

I hadn't looked at it in terms of pure matchups, but the Chiefs secondary actually would match up pretty well vs. the Broncos WRs.

JFC. They shouldn't have signed anyone. They all suck.

H U G E get. Young corner with big potential.

Still need a Tackle and an ILB


I expect the next signing to be Maualuga or Dansby honestly. I'd hate to think with all of this swinging around, that they'd miss a solid ILB subordinate to DJ.

Da ****. Smith said he would play for free because he values friendship with Al Harris and the Staff more than money.

I already love Sean Smith.

That was fake you ****ing reerun.

Was told it's likely closer to 6 million a year than it is to 8.

Guaranteed money is likely around 10-12.

He and DRC. Both have their knocks, but I'm pleased with this signing.

This guy is 26 YEARS OLD. We just picked up a premier corner entering the best years of his career. We could see one of the most dominant defenses in years (maybe ever) in KC this year if we can get the DL right...no bullshit.

Nnamdi - 6 years is good Nnamdi.

Lots of talent; if we gamble on him and give him good money, I hope we at least have him on a 4-year deal so we can reap the benefits of unlocking that ability (or bail after 3 if necessary).

I'm gonna go with 4/$25.

I would think that Flowers will deal with Welker, Robinson on Decker and Smith on Thomas.

Let the complainers begin to complain! What's the matter w/ this signing folks? His former team didn't win 3 Super Bowls when he was on it?

Sean Smith deal is a 3 year deal.

I think it's 3 for 20 with 10 guaranteed.

My 2 buddies that played college ball at Slapdick U and another one who coaches long snapping at the U Of McFistyInMyAss said he sucks :shrug:

supposedly a 3 year deal per Rotoworld:

Latest NewsRecent NewsChiefs agreed to terms with CB Sean Smith, formerly of the Dolphins, on a three-year contract.Mar 14 - 1:45 PM

well.... nice .. lol ....

Karlos Dansby or Brad Jones now.

Best FA pickup by the Chiefs in years.

That sounds closer to being right then 8 mil/yr.

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet
The #Chiefs have had a serious offseason. New GM John Dorsey doing work. Getting Sean Smith for 3 years… pretty solid.

@nfldraftscout: Every move the #Chiefs have made this offseason points to drafting an offensive tackle No. 1 overall.

Albert Breer ‏@AlbertBreer
That Kansas City defense has some serious pieces with Poe, Jackson, Houston, Hali, Johnson, Flowers, Robinson, Berry and now Smith.

It's going to be like watching a new team.


Not a bad thing considering we were 2-14.

No it doesn't.

It points to them trading down.

He's a bigger, slightly slower, Carr.

This is like getting Carr in year 3. He's raw, but he's got HUGE UPSIDE!

http://stream1.gifsoup.com/webroot/a.../3378014_o.gif

whatever. I'm waiting for one positive about this teams moves from you, and you just can't do it. You bitch. I'm starting to think you are a troll.

****in' A Homes

I don't mind any of the FA moves this offseason besides Alex Smith/Chase Daniel.

That just proves they aren't drafting Geno Smith, and that bums me out.
It's going to be really tough to jump on board another ship being led by another teams castoff, again.

And he gets to learn from his BFF Al Harris.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We aren't drafting GENO SMITH... ****ing stupid... moron...aids tree.... ghey.... blah blah blah....

Good thing for Denver it's a pass happy league with WR friendly rules. :p

Nice signing though.

If they could trade down get their 2nd rounder back, I'd be all for it. But I don't think it'll happen.

Consider me highly pleased, a young, second round pick with great size for a corner, and he has experience matching up with teams best receivers... with the supporting cast he now has, he's gonna look much better than he did miami.

You forgot to tell me to fist my mother.

Why is everyone happy? Everyone said Sean Smith sucks...

http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=270929

Well, everyone except me that is.

If I could just talk myself into believing A. Smith could be a top 12 QB, this offseason would give me a lot of hope. I'm not even in the anti-Alex crowd, I just think they gave up too damn much for him.

They've done a great job of building the talent on the team ***** ran into the ground, but as long as Alex Smith is the expected long term QB it's an uphill battle Now lighten the **** up. When you start quoting your tail gating buddies resumes you are asking to be trolled.

I'll personally go for Geno. No doubt.

But they might view it differently, they could trade down and take another player, they could draft an LT (which is a travesty imo, but I wouldn't put Dorsey and Ried in the same galaxy as ***** or Carl, yet, and I wouldn't call the Alex Smith Casselesque in any measure).

I am going to look at the good they made and enjoy it.

Fantastic off season. We'll have to wait to see how it works out, but on paper....

Would they really want to mess with putting Flowers in the slot? That's a pretty radical re-alignment.

I don't think Welker's any better than Decker. Robinson can hang with him in the slot just fine.

Alex Smith sucks

People are really under rating the Abdullah signing. IMO, he'll have more of an impact than Robinson.

Chiefs agreed to terms with CB Sean Smith, formerly of the Dolphins, on a three-year contract.

The news — which was first "reported" by Smith's former teammate Vontae Davis two weeks ago — comes via Smith's agent. He joins Brandon Flowers and Dunta Robinson to form one of the league's better cornerback trios, though Robinson could still end up at safety. It's the same failed strategy Andy Reid adopted in Philadelphia, but he's willing to give it a second chance as division-rival Denver transforms itself into an offensive colossus. Regardless of where Robinson plays, Smith will bookend Flowers on the outside. The Chiefs might not be ready to compete for a playoff spot, but are going to be a far tougher out in 2013.

I wouldn't mind Dansby a bit, at the right price.

Sadly, do we have a good DC?

People around the league believe Smith will gain about 5 mil a year.

134 tackles last year. On the old side but still a difference maker. Other thing is trade down with whoever and take Ogletree.

Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo

Fyi, while we wait to see what Sean Smith got $-wise, a note that CB Dunta Robinson got $13.8m from KC not $15m as I'd seen elsewhere.

This will make the draft more interesting... look for Reid to go after playmakers on both sides... with fewer holes to fill.

Ever?

DT, Neil Smith, Dan Sally,Joe Phillips, Dale Carter, James Hasty, Mark Collins....


Got a lot to do to compare to the above

Brandon Flowers ‏@BFlowers24

Today Was a Good Day ��

Exactly.

I don't see any way they don't trade down at this point. With Hudson's injury and Allen's suspect play last year, not to mention Lilja's retirement, the Chiefs clearly need to take some linemen, no question. And while I think it's pretty apparent that O-Line is probably where they're going with their first, I can't imagine they aren't going to take a 'bad' trade down which would allow them to get yet another potential interior lineman in the 2nd.

They have to be maxed on the cap and they still have 3 clear holes (ILB, RT and either C/G...maybe both). They need the ammo in the trade down to fill those holes in the draft.

They can't just take Joeckel and call it a day; they're going to need another immediate contributor and I think they'd be fine moving down, taking Lane Johnson and then adding that 2nd round pick as an absolute worst case scenario.

I don't either. His 2012 PFF rating was garbage, but that doesn't necessarily tell the whole story.

Yep. They will trade down imo and take the tackle that is left.

CoMo will tell the whole story.

Does anyone know if CoMo likes this guy? Who gives a shit about PFF, is CoMo hates him, we're solid gold.

The only thing i remember about him is that he was the guy putting clown shoes on Chad Johnson in "Hard Knocks". He was talking trash about Chad and owning him on the practice field.

THIS! If I had ANY confidence in Alex Smith, I'd think we would be a contender in 2013. But...

I wonder how pissed off Arenas is.

This is good. Very good. Keep bringing in talented guys to compete for jobs.

This is what is going to happen. Though I think Fisher is way up there on the list, too.

Second round pick would be near the top and we could be looking at Warford, Ertz, Woods, Hunter, or a QB to develop.

@PCBearcat: That first summer, Pioli signed Copper, Engram, Wade and Toomer in an attempt to fix WR spot. #Chiefs



ROFL

**** him.

LMAO

Flowers was in the slot a lot I believe prior to Arenas.

Arenas did a nice job on Welker in the past too.

Having Arenas as a dime back is a great, great thing.

It's funny because it's actually true.

I don't see that. Robinson can't cover Welker. Smith is too soft to stop Thomas. When it comes to facing Denver, it's going to have to be the pass rush that wins the day for the Chiefs.

Actually they aren't maxed yet. They really do want a long term deal with Albert and will likely cut someone like Studebaker.

All we have to do to Manning is bounce him on his head a time or two. And if we don't do it, the Raiders will this year for sure.

Per Donald Stephenson

Ok Sean Smith.. Sheesh give me a break lol

Good Lord, what a bunch of garbage... forgot about Toomer.

Mike Garafolo ‏@MikeGarafolo

Sean Smith three year deal worth $18 mil. Adding to the entry.


Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet

Early returns on #Chiefs Sean Smith's 3-year deal: 3 years, $18 million 11 guaranteed. Won't have breakdown for a bit, though...

Amari Toomer? We signed him?

JFC Pioli was garbage.

Very naic

Duh. You draft Geno and make Daniel your 3rd stringer. Geno and Alex fight it out for starter. :thumb:

Not a bad deal at all

6 mil a year thats perfect. Now grab Dansby or Jones.

I hope we're just insanely aggressive on defense this year, i'll concede a few big plays if it means smashing the shit out of everyones QB... particularly cap'n fivehead.

Just Blitz Baby
