Would you be pissed if the Chiefs....
The first ten picks go something like this:
1. Colts Andrew Luck QB Stanford 2. Skins Robert Griffin III QB Baylor 3. Vikes Matt Kalil OT USC 4. Browns Trent Richardson RB Alabama 5. Bucs Morris Claiborne CB LSU 6. Rams Justin Blackmon WR Oklahoma St. 7. Jags Melvin Ingram DE South Carolina 8. Fins Ryan Tannehill QB Texas A&M 9. Panthers Fletcher Cox DT Mississippi St. 10. Bills Riley Reiff OT Iowa At this point, the top player on the Chiefs Board is the WR Floyd from ND, but we don't need a WR, especially with the first pick. So, the Chiefs call a few teams to see if any interest in trading up and none exists worthy of the #11. But the Browns are willing to part with their 1st round pick at #22 and conditional mid to late round pick in 2013 for Bowe. The Chiefs pull the trigger on the trade with the Browns for Bowe and then select WR Floyd. This makes a lot of sense for the Browns because they really help their team with the addition of Richardson at #4 and also get a great WR in Bowe. This should immediately help their offense. This makes sense for the Chiefs, because the Hunt family is notorious for being cheap and they get out of paying Bowe a big $$$ contract and the 22nd pick can fill various needs that the Chiefs have as well as provide depth along with more trade power next year to move up with an additional mid to late round pick depending on the play of Bowe for the Browns. The addition of Floyd gives the Chiefs two big, fast and young targets for years to come with Floyd and Baldwin. Several players could be available with the 22nd pick including Mercilus, Konz, Kirkpatrick, but with the ascension of Poe and Cox, Brockers slides to the 22nd pick and the Chiefs run to the podium to select him. Adding Brockers, also gives the Chiefs the ability to trade Dorsey for middle round pick. An ideal partner would be with the Rams at the 96th pick(top of the 4th round) because they had one of the worst run defenses in the league last year and need immediate help up front. |

yeah because trading away a proven play maker is dumb as ****, unless you absolutely have to.

Players often change after they sign their second contract.

Feel free to pull up evidence that players are more inclined to "change" once they sign that second contract. Feel free to define "change" too.
Well ****, Charles "changed" after signing his extension by landing on the IR so lets deal him away for some bad offer and draft Lamar Miller. |

Don't forget that Bowe has already been suspended and if caught again, he is probably out half a season. |

Yes, I'd be plenty pissed.
Bowe is a big MFer that blocks his ass off. He's a legitimate top 10-15 WR in this league and the NFL isn't going to allow the Hunts to keep playing cheap year in, year out. Bowe does everything this team could ever want him to do and even if you add a deep threat, Bowes still the bull of a possession WR that you'll need to pick up tough first downs in close games and in playoff atmospheres. If they aren't spending money on Bowe next year, they're throwing it at someone like Dorsey that's going to make next to no impact anyway. The team has to spend to get to the floor next year. That trade would make the Chiefs demonstrably worse for the next 3-5 seasons, which happen to be the prime years of the best players on this team. No. A thousand times no. That is an awful, awful idea.

Floyd has a history of doing stupid shit drunk and could get suspended for being dumb and drunk.

He did more than "drank beerz" since he managed to get a DUI and get popped for underage drinking twice in a two year period. I mean he clearly had some issues with doing teh stupids while getting his drink on. While reportedly he's of late pulled his head out of his ass there is the fact that it was at one point planted pretty firmly in there.

I would rather trade the #11 pick to the Browns for the #22 and their 3rd round pick than ****ing trade Bowe.
And I'm a Notre Dame homer... |

Chiefs fans hate "diva" WRs yet they want to trade away Bowe (a player who works his ass off on the field and in practice and does all kinds of fan-related events free of charge) and sign a guy with REAL character issues like Floyd? Not only that, people have already practically written Jon Baldwin off as a giant bust just because he didn't want to be pushed around by a punk ass broke dick ****tard like Thomas Jones.
Terrible idea. I would have traded away Bowe for the chance to directly draft RGIII. But for Michael Floyd and the possibility of a little bit more ammo in acquiring a QB NEXT year? Re. Tard. Ed. |

Yeah I'd be pretty pissed.
Floyd doesn't excite me at all. I think he's a compiler. |

I have no desire to move Bowe for another highly picked wr.
None. We have a shitty horse that refuses to run and isn't strong enough to pull a cart and some think the answer is to trade for a lighter cart? Seriously? GET A NEW HORSE FFS. |

I think it would be a great trade for just their 3rd... #67, and one of their 4ths... #100 or #118. We would lose a bit on the points chart, but those picks would set us up to do a lot of things/maneuvering during the draft to fill out our team.
