It could be an effort from his camp to raise the Chiefs' current offer to him. Flip side to that is, if we don't make that offer, he could very well just go to a team who will pay him what he thinks he's worth.

Why on earth would he leave? He has a home with the Chiefs, and it seemed like he'd pretty much beaten Asamoah out for the starting job.

He has a brother in Cleveland. They are going to play side by side.

Just trying to play the voice of reason here. Even though it would piss me off if we lose GS to a reasonable FA deal, John Dorsey DOES NOT SLEEP.

He is a mutant. A half machine half created human with no need for food or sleep.

He is constantly watching tape and interviewing players.

I bet he is doing one of the 2 right now.

Last offseason, he went out and found a bunch of talented players at the vet min or bargain basement prices that played big roles for us.

Schwartz
Abdullah
Jordan
Demps (great signing as just a returner, not so much as a safety)
Avery

Just to name a few.

He also got other players like Marcus Cooper and Tyler Bray with no investment.

He found a "Geoff Scwartz" before and he will find one again...but I also doubt the validity of this report because I highly doubt that any decision to let him go has been made at this point.

I would like to know why one game is enough of a sample size to make an evaluation on a professional football player.

This, "X played awesome against SD, therefore X is awesome," is just flat out idiotic.

Somewhere Matt Flynn is giving you the middle finger.

No.

I don't think anyone is saying that. Between Allen, Hudson, and Watkins, we have options at a position that isn't really that important. I'd like to sign Schwartz, but not for too much and life will go on without him.

It has been said literally thousands of times in the last two months, and several times in this thread.

Not sure who is saying any of these guys are awesome, but there were a handful of players that went out there and showed they belonged on the field that day against a team that was already in playoff mode.

Kush
Watkins
Powe
Catapano
Bailey

I'm excited to see the future of those guys because of that.

If two or three of them become average starting quality players, that's a fairly big deal. It's a good sign when younger guys play well at the end of the year.

'Hamas' Jenkins 02-26-2014 10:46 PM

It's an incredibly limited sample size. It just doesn't mean that much.

ThaVirus 02-26-2014 10:47 PM

It has been said like a mother****er about Watkins and Kush.

People have been drinking the shit out of the Kool-Aid thinking we'll somehow get better by dropping a premier LT and a RG that proved to be our second best lineman by season's end- at the same time expecting a 5th and 6th round center and guard to somehow stabilize the positions..

And at the same time shouldn't be easily discarded.

All some of us are saying about that group is that they showed the ability to play and warrants consideration for increased playing time in the future to see if they can continue to develop while playing a larger role.

I'm of the opinion that Bailey, Powe and Catapano could have helped our starting line stay fresh all year and tat Bob Sutton needs to rotate some of these guys so we get don't burn everyone out next year.

All three showed the ability to disrupt plays.

This. It seems like every direckshuns post lately is him overreacting to something.

Titty Meat 02-27-2014 07:32 AM

Direck isn't overreacting.

Lets breakdown the stupidity of letting Schwartz go.

First of all the offense made drastic improvements once Schwartz was inserted at guard. Its no coincidence that the teams highest scoring outputs were the games Fisher didnt play.

So now they are going to let their 2 best linemen go with a qb who's had injuries in the past and will presumably draft their replacements. Lets keep in mind this is the same failed strategy that got Andy fired and its not like Green Bay picked any o-linemen worth a shit in the first round either.

Schwartz has always been a productive player everywhere he's been. Not resigning him with 12 mil in capspace is ****ing stupid.
