Yep.

Winston tells @dannyparkins @cdotharrison that he was not asked to take pay cut or change positions by #Chiefs - never came up

Move Baldwin to Tight End.
Move Manieri to Tackle.
Move Brandon Albert to Guard.
Move Cyrus Gray to Fullback.
Move McCluster to slot receiver.
Move Casshole to Arizona.
Trade first pick, for St. Louis' 1st and 1st,
or anybody elses 1st and 3rd.
Draft a tackle and a corner.
Take a wide receiver in the 4th.

Problem solved!

Maybe they hate people with lisps or cleft palates?

Granted I missed a few pages, but I didn't see anyone wanting to convert Baldwin to a TE. Guess maybe I'll have to go back and read last nights posts.

OK, so we can move Poe to fullback!
Even Bettah!

I'll just say that this all looks like positioning for the Draft. No one knows who the hell we'll be wanting to take and might help boost the offers for people wanting to trade up.

Oh, you know what they are going to do. It has been evident since the day the alex smith trade was announced. They were going to try to trade down, and if not, draft joeckel. Anyone confused as to what the chiefs have been planning, are fooling themselves.

The skill level from the top guy in this qb draft class, to the 10th guy, is minimal at best. With good coaching, there is no doubt that a Wilson, or Bray, can be better, or as good as Geno Smith, or Barkley.

I'm disagreeing with your comment that it didn't take a crystal ball. I haven't heard anyone else, either here or in the media, even speculating that Winston could be cut, much less predicting it. It doesn't mean he's right about everything, but he deserves credit (and a credibility bump) for this.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

The drop off from Geno Smith to say someone like Matt Scott or Alex Carder is minimal?

happens every day on here in at least one thread, its a pretty common "want," "idea," "theory" or whatever on what do with him. It's more of an "excuse" for Baldwin apologists to try and give him a free pass that he is good or will pan out as a player. So grasping at straws, and very dumb ones might I add. Just becauses hes big and tall doesnt mean he can play TE.

Winston isn't a gladiator... I bet he thinks this whole ordeal is sickening. Good bye, beeeeyotch!
