Yahoo Sports says Trent will have to compete with Croyle
Check it out:
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slu...yhoo&type=lgns "Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Trent Green was told by team president Carl Peterson that he can come back to the team next season, but will have to compete for the starting job with second-year quarterback Brodie Croyle and will have to take a pay cut to return." Compete with Croyle for the starting job? Hmmm. Its Yahoo Sports. So lets wait and see. Arrowhead Pride |

Yeah, his opportunities have definitely been limited and he was a rookie, but it's not like he has given us a lot of reason to think he's going to turn out to be great. I think everyone crowning him the franchise QBOTF is pretty premature. |

Competition isn't all that its cracked up to be. This is the NFL - it's a pay to play league. Teams pay lots of money to players and those guys play. Do you think McIntosh is going to have to beat out Svitek?
Competition at QB is especially dangerous because once you have a tight competition there is always a danger of a QB controversy. Other players on the team will have their favorites as well. IMHO, offensive players probably have a lot more respect for Green than they do Herm and Solari. If they think Green deserves the starting spot and he doesn't get it, it could cause lots of locker room problems.

No one's doing that. Everyone just wants to see what he CAN do.

Huard did just sign a 3 year deal, but I haven't heard anything mention this angle yet.....
Its a pretty reasonable contract, his stock is high and I'd think he(Huard) would be tradeable, now that the Chiefs retained his rights....if the Chiefs get Green to take a pay cut, and they didn't trade him. |

I don't know about you, but I'm never fond of being asked to clean up someone else's mess. Crowning him QBotF is NOT premature. By definition, QBotF is a PROSPECT and that's what Brodie is. At some point, you have to find out if your prospect is worth anything. That time is now. |

The one good thing about all this is that presumably Croyle must look really good in practice for the Chiefs to even consider him starting this fall. I mean you don't hear talk that Casey Printers is in the mix, if he is even still on the team, which I don't know and don't really care. Croyle wasn't that high of a draft pick, and he is in the mix to start in his second year, despite not playing at all in year 1. Unless our coaches are complete idiots (sadly, a distinct possibility), Croyle may be forcing their hands with his impressive practices.

Guess Huard is in the exact same position he has been everywhere else he has played. Never getting the opportunity handed to him. At least he got PAID this time. Guess that is something.
