Free agent Chris Canty visiting the Kansas City Chiefs
http://www.arrowheadpride.com/2013/2...as-city-chiefs
Does free agent Chris Canty spark your interest? The New York Giants released the defensive lineman last week and now he's visiting the Kansas City Chiefs. This according to Mike Garafolo of USA Today: Mike Garafolo @MikeGarafolo Btw, former Giants DT Chris Canty visited the Titans over the weekend and will now meet with the Chiefs. Could be more visits coming. Interesting. Very interesting. You know what position Canty played in New York? Right defensive end, same as Glenn Dorsey, who is of course a free-agent-to-be on March 12. We haven't heard rumblings as to whether Dorsey will be back but the general thinking outside the team is that he won't be. There's also the issue of the large sum of money that's due to Tyson Jackson. |

Chris Canty was on Charlotte sports radio (610) this morning. Said he's taking his time as UFA doesn't come along very often. Looking for best deal and wants to win a championship. Said QB was very important to him - was lobbying for Panthers to give him a shot. Didn't sound like he's in a rush to make a decision and based on the fact that KC has no QB, not too encouraging.

enough coin?
do not overpay for a 30 year old d-lineman lol hes not going to get offers from any team with an established QB because its most likely teams with good QBs also have a good dline/pass rush depth |

Hey I'm not saying to give it to him. Just saying it's not ALL about "winning".

The Chiefs may have a 34 DE that gets pressure in the passing game? BULLSHIT

Also, I will be so hard if we sign WillyMo! Talked to him quite a few times when I worked for Mizzou athletics/tickets. Cool dude.

Chris Canty might take hometown discount from Panthers, but they haven't called http://wp.me/p14QSB-7ivh Chris Canty has heard from Panthers players, but not GM Posted by Darin Gantt on February 16, 2013, 3:27 PM EST New York Giants v Dallas Cowboys Getty Images Former Giants defensive tackle Chris Canty has already visited with the Titans and the Chiefs, but the team he might like to play for hasn’t called yet. Canty, who was a high school star in Charlotte, said he’d love to have a chance to play there again. “I might be willing to do the hometown discount,” Canty said with a laugh, when asked by WFNZ’s The Mac Attack about joining the Panthers. “We have to see what other opportunities are out there.” Canty said that not long after he was released by the Giants, that Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis sent him a text saying “It’s time for you to come on home.” Of course, that’s not the same as interest from Panthers GM Dave Gettleman, who knows Canty well from his days in the Giants personnel department. While Canty might fit the Panthers from football and geographical means — and he insisted he thought they’d be competitive this year — that doesn’t mean he ends up there. Since the Panthers are in subtract-before-they-add mode, they’re going to have to peel some parts off the roster before Gettleman can bring Canty or anyone else in. |

Well, it's real nice for Canty to have numbers from KC and Tennessee to show the Panthers now. That slut.

According to reports, the Giants cut Canty because he was owed $6.5 million in 2013 and the team has to free up cap space.
Canty battled through injuries in 2012. He spent the first six games of the season on the PUP list after ACL surgery last February. According to Mike Garafolo, covering the NFL for USA Today after eight seasons covering the Giants for The Star Ledger, Canty avoided answering the question of whether he had micro fracture surgery in the offseason. He never seemed to come back after the surgery that troubled him all year. Also troubling, Canty suffered a sprained MCL against the Ravens in late December -- the injury is to the same knee that caused him to be placed on PUP at the start of the season. At 6'7" and 317 pounds, Canty is a huge space eater and important interior lineman. He has proven to be very versatile. He can play as a 4-3 DT or DE or 3-4 DE. While at Dallas, Canty played at right DE in the 3-4 defense. A healthy Canty can make a big difference on defense. The guy can flat out ball and was very disruptive in the middle. He was a big part of the Giants’ success in Super Bowl XLVI. Wish him the best when he is not playing against us. Quote:
Once a Giant, always a Giant.

Chris Canty set for visits with Packers and Jaguars
Posted by Josh Alper on February 22, 2013, 6:07 PM EST Getty Images Defensive lineman Chris Canty has gotten an offer from the Titans since his release from the Giants, but he’s not ready to stop looking for a new team to call his own. Mike Garafolo of USA Today reports that Canty will visit with the Packers and Jaguars after the combine comes to a close. The Packers had a lot of interest in Canty when he was a free agent after the 2008 season, but he wound up signing with the Giants instead of waiting on an offer from Green Bay. Things are working a bit differently this time, which might be an advantage of being able to look for jobs while those waiting for free agency have to refrain — publicly, at least — from exploring new opportunities. The Jaguars have defensive lineman Terrance Knighton and George Selvie heading toward free agency and need to do a better job at both rushing the passer and stopping the run next season. Canty can fit in a variety of roles up front and would likely play tackle for Jacksonville while filling an end spot if he wound up in Green Bay. Because General Manager Dave Gettleman worked for the Giants, there was some thought the Panthers would also be interested in Canty. As of now, though, we only know that he’s heard from Carolina players.

Well crap...probably not going to get him now.
Sounds like we weren't able to sell him so he's going to keep shopping. I'm still hopeful that he changes his mind, but the delay isn't a good thing.

We are a boat without a rudder, right now.
Until this team gets a QB, why would it be a good place to go as a free agent? |
