Awesome. Someone is going to overpay for him.

Hopefully there isn't a stiff breeze to knock him over on the way to sign his new contract

YES!

This ought to be good... Lots of potential with this topic.

Devin Hester come on down.

Yeah right.

Get ready for the Weston Dressler show.

FYP

Don't harsh my mellow.

Sproles would be my guess. He just fits to perfectly into an Andy Reid offense, add to that a Dave Toub ST?

Yes, please.

I expect a good p.r. spin on this, just for old times' sake.

He was a good roleplayer. A solid piece to have around.

McFadden?

:hmmm:

McFadden is Sproles now?

I didn't hate McCluster. Sproles will be significantly more money. Right?

What time does F/A begin?

4PM Tomorrow.

Why do I feel he will end up in ATL?

McCluster is going to get some interest I'm sure. I wouldn't think Sproles, especially given his age, is going to get THAT much more money...

another great Fat Scott draft pick is a one and done contract. Shocked I am. Thank you Matt Millen, I mean Scott Pioli for your great drafting that brought us tons of talent.

No and he's pretty ideal in Reid's offense. Makes alot of sense really.

Do you blow you blow your FA wad on an aging role-player?

Depends on how much those wheels fell off.

A Sproles signing doesn't excite me.

Equipment manager just cut his shoe budget in half. :) Thanks to DMC for some nice plays. The kick return vs. the Giants stands out. Hope he finds a good fit.

:thumb:

Patriots or Falcons is my guess.

Didn't look like the wheels fell off much last year. Add to that he's basically a 3rd down RB/ spell Charles/ return punts guy?

Charles/Davis/Sproles would be a great set at a spot thats highly utilized in Reids offense.

how about Paylor's other tweet

SIX teams interested in Akeem Jordan? Is that ****ing for real lol.

Didn't say that 6 teams were interested in starting him.

Junior Hemingway stinks

I bet McCluster will be a Saint. They'll get rid of Moore and Sproyles and he'll fill the void. He never quite lived up to the hype. I was really hoping for the next Eric Metcalf. He was a decent player but not worth over paying. I'd say this definitely increases our chances of drafting a WR.

Better have the wellbye.gif on standby tomorrow

Good luck with that.

So we won't get to see Dex run straight up the middle against a stacked line on third and long anymore? Bummer-the dude was a battering ram. Like hitting the D in the face with a really stiff pillow. OUCH-that wears a team down as the game goes on.

well we are guaranteed to have at least 1 new (slot?) WR next year. It better not be Weston Dressler either lol

NO1CUR

You're gonna get Jason Avant and like it because that's basically all we can afford

Sproles has like 9x as many recieving TDs than rushing TDs. He only has 3 fumbles in 8 years.

Line both him and Charles up in the backfield, have one or both split out and then get the ball to whoever the defense doesn't key on. Rinse. Repeat. Profit.

Source: Chiefs’ Dexter McCluster to sign elsewhere in free agency
March 10
BY TEREZ A. PAYLOR
The Kansas City Star

It appears Chiefs receiver Dexter McCluster’s run in Kansas City will soon end.





A person with knowledge of the situation told The Star on Monday that McCluster, who is a free agent, will not return to the Chiefs. He has four or five interested teams and likely will sign elsewhere Tuesday night, when NFL free agency officially begins.

A spokesman for the Chiefs had no comment.

McCluster’s loss would leave a void at punt return and in the slot. He’s coming off the best year of his career, as he made the Pro Bowl due to his contributions on special teams. He returned 58 punts for 686 yards and two touchdowns in 2013, and also had the most productive season of his career as a receiver, catching 53 passes for 511 yards and two touchdowns, all career highs.

The Chiefs currently have a handful of players with punt-return experience under contract for 2014, including running back Joe McKnight, who was signed in January, and former CFL star receiver Weston Dressler, who was signed in February.

Good. May he never lose his majestic spin for whatever teams wants to pay him.

He is (unlike Dexter) a potential matchup disaster for defenses. I'd love to have him here.

Best of luck to him.

:clap: We can finally move on from him.

Depends on whether the source is Akeem's agent or not...

His 360 spin will be sick in next years Super Bowl with the Patriots

So maybe now we can draft a wideout?

Hold it right there.

Nooooooooo, not McMidget!

Supposedly the 'Skins are the leading landing place for Sproles. That info is from a friend of mine. No source to cite. FWIW.

I meant a real one to push Avery to the slot not our back up plan. Hope he pans out but his ceilings probably the same as mcluster. It's time to find a legit badass.

I know the Bucs are interested in McCluster and you know he would like to play close to his hometown largo, his parents still live there.

it's amazing the Bucs get FAs every year that want to play there and every year they are absolutely horrible record wise.

Does this mean we get Eric Decker now?

:shake:

**** YOU

Darren McFadden is such a broke dick.

It's not about winning. It's about money and playing in a city you like.

I'm bummed to lose him. I think he is better than he gets credit for. I would also overpay him. But I have a feeling some team will pay him something ridiculous. He is not worth top shelf slot rreceiver money. Not even close.

Yep. I would be much happier about this if we didn't have another midget already waiting in the wings.

Junior backs up Bowe and I didn't remember seeing him return kicks.

We can always find a McMidget. Toub's system is the key, not the return guy who profits from it.

Chiefs will sign Hester cheap

Time for Devon Wylie to shine!









oh.

No...

There are a bunch of middle aged women who are crying into their number 22 jerseys.

Most of them are on CP.

Hope we make a deal for Steve Smith if the money's right

Noooooooooooooooooo

You picking up Peyton too?

Na smith is better :)

Want no part of upper decker

I don't want him at the price he'll command, but the guy is a really good receiver.

I don't know how I feel about this. I was a supporter of his early in his career then hated him but last year he did a very good job. This team is going to have alot of holes to fill so hopefully they know what they are doing

Every time I saw him, I kept thinking of the Booty Sweat guy from Tropic Thunder:

See ya Dex. Good guy. Hope you have a great career.

@1_ChiefsKingdom: Anyone wanna take a flier on Darren McFadden? Chiefs have expressed an interest in him.

Save our chiefs

Ya, very similar here. Liked him, didn't like him, liked him, gone.

Like you said....hope they know what they are doing.

Had a big-time 4th quarter play or catch in most of our games in the second half of the season. And he is a very good punt returner, and that's not just because of Dave Toub.

He is a much better player than he gets credit for by his critics. Is he a top-shelf slot receiver? Of course not. But he turned into a solid player last year in Reid's system.
