Chiefs KC not interested in Canty or Smith?

Chiefnj2 · 02-27-2009, 11:39 AM

Per NFL network:

Canty is scheduled to go to the Redskins Friday, Titans Saturday, Seahawks Monday, and then the 49ers if he’s still unsigned. All visits are subject to developments and possible change, of course, but right now that is the big difference between last year and this year. Deals versus visits.

Antonio Smith, meanwhile, has received recent calls and offers to visit the Buccaneers, Giants, Eagles, Texans and Falcons. He now is in the process of prioritizing those teams, at which point he would be expected to finalize an itinerary.

We are literally not mentioned in association with anybody. I just don't understand...I hope it's some more of that "secretive" BS.

MIAdragon · 02-27-2009, 11:52 AM

Lets hope the silence is "holding your cards close" and not from lack of interest or exploration

Good point. If the report is true, at least Pioli was in contact with big Albert. Carl would have been on vacation and not even bothered with the good players. Pioli was active just after mid-night. That's a change.

I'm not surprised. Disappointed, but not surprised.

The FAs we sign will probably elicit the "WTF" responses more than the "Hell Yeah!" responses.

I think we're in for a long-term rebuilding project...

Hows a bout we sent a 3rd to Pittsburgh for Kendrell Bell? Does that sound like something you would be interested in?

Why is ANYONE surprised?

Clark Hunt has been saying for almost 2 months, and reiterated again this week, that we wouldn't be active in the first few days of FA.

What is is going to take for you folks to take the man at his word?

You can't keep closing your eyes and putting your fingers in your ears, acting like you didn't hear him. He's said it numerous times.

High quantity, few "names."

Chill.

On second thought, I'm willing to accept a 1-year, $40 million contract.

This is the double edged sword that we have invited into Kansas City. For those of us who are hardcore fans and are sick and tired of 610 and 810 reporting about Royals training camp, ARod or monotonous College Basketball coverage, we just want Chiefs coverage. But the Chiefs are lockdown now, they dont let information spill, and this will probably take place throughout the tenure of Scott Pioli. This is a great way for the franchise to carry itself respectfully and with professionalism but it sucks for its fans because we don't get a peep or a whisper of what is going on. So we might be interested in these players, but we won't know until the news breaks that we have made a deal and they are on a plane to be introduced.
