Biggs: Chiefs exploring trade options with Pollard

Move would create opening for Mike Brown in lineup

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.

That was poorly worded. I'm not saying the Chiefs would be doing this move to get one of those two but was thinking it WOULD increase our chances since we would be going from a 24 year old starter to a 31 year old starter with a history of injury...it would become a position that would need upgrading after the season IMO.

You don't scoff at a super high level prospect just because. I don't like next years WR prospects atleast not in the top 10 and there is no ****ing way they should be taking an OT that high.

im not scoffing at him im sure he could be of great help to us i just think there are bigger needs.

ol
wr
nt
ss

in that order

pollard routinely looks like an idiot though

You just don't get it do you? You do not spend a first round pick on a guy to play RT!

Especially when you have two second round picks.

Hog's Gone Fishin · 09-04-2009, 05:23 PM

If Haley's trying to trade Pollard ,it's just because he's spending too much time on the planet listening to you guys.

First everyone demand McIntosh be cut ,

Then don't bitch when our third string QB ends up being the only QB left that was't carried off on a stretcher during the first quarter against Baltimore!

Speaking of dumbassery, that's quite a play, considering Holmes' longest reception for the game was 40 yards.
