& if he gets injured:banghead:

Not quite.......But one oe twp impact type players on D would push the Chiefs over the top IMO.......

How? The Colts woulda still torched a middle of the road D. We need a good D that has a player or two who consistently shuts down the other teams WRs and gets pressure on the QB. We need players who have the ability to step up when it's crunch time. I'd trade for Bailey and start blitzing the QB.

~doesn't want to strive for a middle of the road D~

Couldn't agree more........A solid CB and a strong pass rush would be great

get some one cheaper & we can have a WR & Henson

~my spelling is rally6 bad today

He's NEVER Missed a game in the pros.Besides it's not something you can control.Plus he will still be on the team for years to come.The injury comment an EXCUSE not to go after him.

I aslo want Tait back but we have plenty of safeties on this roster that Gun can get the job done with (most of them attempting futilely to play CB). So getting Wesley back is not as critical.

Ahhhhh, Jim, ......Don't you mean Woods....????? Wesley is already resigned........... :p

Getting Wesley back??He's already signed on.Do you mean Woods?

I just hate having all that money tied up in one player, Warfield resigned when CBs were hard to find

I wouldn't totally disagree with that tact but sometimes you get what you pay for. Bailey is just to young and to good :)

How many difference makers do we have on defense? None, IMO. Sims could/should be, with a good scheme and a little help. Fujita, Barber and Woods are good players, but not difference-makers the way Priest and Gonzo (and maybe Roaf and Shields) are on offense.

Champ is a difference-maker. He takes an offensive chess piece off the board.

I would rather trade two 1st-rounders (04 and 05) than two pix this year (1st and 2nd or 3rd). I'd like to keep this year's 2nd and 3rd for a shot at Kaeding and either a defensive player or a WR.

But I agree, I think the contract money is the bigger obstacle than the trading parameters.

there is also the business side, you have to keep a team winning to keep ALL( fair weather) fans coming to games & buying gear.

If we can get this done, we should. No doubt in my mind...only two, or maybe three of those draft's listed would even compare....Thomas, Gonzalez, and maybe 1996...that's it for me.

He'd be an immediate impact player. Can we afford him though....I'm not holding my breath. :hmmm:

I'm not sure of where you're going with that in relation to signing Bailey. We already are winning in the regular season now we need playoff wins. Bailey should help us win agaisnt the good teams which will keep the stadium full. And full during the playoffs too!
