Trying to trade Pollard? from NFP
http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/...h-Pollard.html
Biggs: Chiefs exploring trade options with Pollard Move would create opening for Mike Brown in lineup Brad Biggs September 04, 2009, 06:55 PM EST The Kansas City Chiefs are exploring options to trade strong safety Bernard Pollard, a move that would create an opening for veteran Mike Brown to move into the starting lineup, sources said. The 24-year-old Pollard, a fourth-year pro from Purdue, has made 31 starts the last two seasons. He had 98 tackles and one interception last season. But Brown was signed in late June to push both Pollard and free safety Jarrad Page. “The defensive backfield as a whole, I think, there’s excellent competition,’’ Haley said late last month when asked if Brown had pushed Pollard for the job. “I don’t think there’s anybody who feels real comfortable. Mike’s one of the reasons for that but I think that’s the way it is across the board there. Those guys know there is somebody right behind them that could be playing just as well as them. That’s how you get your team good.” Brown spent the last nine seasons with the Chicago Bears but has been injury plagued since 2004. He held it together to start 15 games last season, but had to leave three games early down the stretch with a recurring calf muscle pull and finally missed the finale. He is an instinctive player and made 101 tackles last season, the third-highest total in his career. |

McGraw had a very good game yesterday from what I saw.....
But I'm still not that thrilled about him being a starter (if that's the case at all). There's just been too much suckage from his play that one or a couple games doesn't justify him being a starter. Now if he continues to improve.....then on down the road maybe he can snag someone's spot as a starter if he continues to play well, but not now. |

I don't care how hard a dude hits, if he misses half the time, blows tackles and sucks in coverage he's a liability.

Yeah, pretty sure this is the whole Pioli "right player" spiel on display here. Honestly, if we can get any compensation for Pollard if he was going to be benched anyways, then its a win.

Carlos Dunlap would be a waste in the Chiefs defense.

Funny that anyone thinks Pollard is striking fear into any receivers....
Likely when they watch film they just laugh at his missed tackles... "OK so if you see 49, run at him...make a little move...easy yardage"

Okay. Fine. Ndamukong Suh or Jermaine Gresham with the first pick then. Unless we pick up Pitta in the 2/3 round. If we do, then Suh is the guy. |
