Chiefs CB Brandon Flowers "Coaching Up" Tennessee S Eric Berry

A few weeks ago came the news that Chiefs CB Brandon Flowers has been working out with Tennessee S Eric Berry down in Florida.

Apparently, "at least once or twice a week" Flowers headed down to Berry's workout facility and helped him prepare for the Combine and his pro day.

"I think my performance at the Combine, what I did in my position drills, that showed what he did for me," Berry told Nick Wright of 610 Sports on Friday. "At least once or twice a week, he came to the training facility and helped me out on my drills. He got me prepared for the drills."

Romeo Crennel will be Flowers' third defensive coordinator in as many years so it's impressive that he's been able to perform consistently in two separate schemes.

"You could tell he has a good knowledge of the game the way he was coaching me up," Berry said. "I think I could understand it very well. You could tell he knows a lot coming from the Kansas City Chiefs. I think that has a lot to say about that organization."

Not only is Flowers "coaching up" Berry, he's also telling him that Kansas City isn't a bad place to be.

"He said it was a great city," Berry explained. "The fans are amazing. They're just like college, very passionate about their team and their city. They come in every Sunday with pride backing up the Kansas City Chiefs."

Kudos to Brandon Flowers for repping Kansas City. Here's the audio of the Eric Berry interview.

Great. Another article that will ultimately lead some of us Chiefs fans to Arrowhead with axes and pitchforks if we don't select Berry. Cool article though.

So is anyone going to tell me again how this is just some wild coincidence and how Flowers just happens to be working out with a player that's right in the wheel house when our pick comes up and just happens to be a pick of need as well?

The same way anyone will discredit any pick they don't like...

Smokescreen

Haven't you heard?

The Chiefs are planning to trade Flowers and the 5th pick to the Browns for Shaun Rodgers.

Hadn't heard that one

The chiefs might not pick Berry but they must be seriously considering it.

it will be interesting to see what happens if Berry and Clausen are both sitting there when we pick.

i wonder if that trade rumor with Cleveland will happen...

yea, noob question here, BUT...........
what's the rumor?

Holy shit, Nick Wright has one of the most annoying voices ever. How the **** is he on the radio?

And yeah, Eric Berry. Want.

Berry's and Flower's make me happy.... Time to turn the Page, and hand over the Carr keys to Berry's and Flower's....

Sheesh I'm tired. Best I got and it sucked...

I hate reading this shit. I mean, its cool that they're friends and all, but I'm gonna be so disappointed when Scott passes on him...

I've heard chatter about Cleveland possibly wanting to move up...but I don't think it's substantiated, and if they wanted Berry they'd probably have to move up to 4 to get him. And now that they surrendered more picks in the Sheldon Brown trade, I'd say not likely.

Heh, Berrys and Flowers. That's our version of unicorns and rainbows...Posted via Mobile Device

Cleveland already took Brady Quinn from us, and how did that turn out for them? Assholes.

Exactly! :clap:

If this happens, I will shoot you with Shaun's gun...:)Posted via Mobile Device
