Carl Peterson- "Even if the Buccaneers offered McCardell straight up........

C-Mac · 10-12-2004, 09:35 AM

"Even if (the Buccaneers) offered (WR Keenan) McCardell straight up, I wouldn't do it," Carl Peterson stated. May be old news but it makes me feel better about the front office and using wise business decisions. Sounds like Johnson is still whining a bit.

KFFL INJURY REPORT:
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS October 11, 2004 14:47:23 PT

CURRENT UPDATES

OFFENSE
-- TE Tony Gonzalez (foot) had soreness and was limited in practice Monday, Oct. 11, but will play in the Sunday, Oct. 17, game at the Jacksonville Jaguars.

DEFENSE
-- DE Jimmy Wilkerson (knee) left practice early Monday, Oct. 11, and is uncertain for the Sunday, Oct. 17, game at the Jacksonville Jaguars.
-- DT Ryan Sims (Hamstring) did not practice Monday, Oct. 11, and is unlikely to play in the Sunday, Oct. 17, game at the Jacksonville Jaguars.
-- LB Scott Fujita (ankle) did not practice Monday, Oct. 11, and is unlikely to play in the Sunday, Oct. 17, game at the Jacksonville Jaguars.

NOTES AND MISCELLANEOUS UPDATES
-- 10/11 -- RB Larry Johnson, a former first-round draft pick, is anxious for an opportunity to display his skills on the playing field. "I know what everyone says about being patient and waiting your turn, but that's not what I see for myself," Johnson said. "I don't want to be three, four years into my career before I get a chance to be a starter. Running backs age fast in the NFL, and I feel like the clock is already ticking on my career. I want to get going." Johnson is currently a reserve to RB Priest Holmes this year. ... Team president and general manager Carl Peterson addressed the speculation that RB Larry Johnson is on the trading block. "If someone offered that (a first-round pick) I would consider it," Peterson said. "But I'm a Larry Johnson guy. That's why I drafted him. I believe that he will make a significant impact on the Kansas City Chiefs someday." Specifically, Peterson shot down the recent trade rumor involving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. "Even if (the Buccaneers) offered (WR Keenan) McCardell straight up, I wouldn't do it," Peterson said.

Great Peterson is going to be a jackass to the detriment of our chances of winning.

Big fucking suprise.

Keenan McCardell for LJ straight up is silly. No way. Plaxico maybe. Marvin Harrison and Jerry Porter are both free agents next season. I hope we look at one of them. LJ is just stuck here. He needs to work is ass off on special teams to make a name for himself. Pouting and wearing diapers doesn't help his cause. Yes, he is still wearing diapers. Vermiel was right when he said that LJ was wearing diapers.

**BigRedChief** · 10-12-2004, 09:41 AM

So you think thats good? LJ walks at the end of this season. I'm pretty sure on this. He has a loop hole/out/buy out something that makes him a free agent at the end of this season. Correct me if I'm wrong here...

We get nothing at the end of this season. So you think that nothing is better than McCardell?

Chiefnj · 10-12-2004, 09:46 AM

LJ hasn't carried the ball enough to warrant a team to give up a 3rd round pick, let alone a first rounder.

LJ is going to be disgruntled, but you can't really blame him; he just wants to play. It's a tough decision, keep him for insurance or get something for him that can help the team this year and next.

Actually he has one more season to sit on the bench before he can walk. But at the end of 2005 walk away he will. A complete wasted pick.

**BigRedChief** · 10-12-2004, 09:49 AM

Well what the heck good is he to us? Priest retires at the end of this year. We start LJ next year? If so why is Blaylock getting carries instead of LJ? Motivation?

If he was ever going to be anybody They are ruining LJ.

I agree with Jim, LJ was a wasted and still is a wasted pick.

But for the record, I don't want McCardell....... Too old .

Get what ya can CP !

C-Mac · 10-12-2004, 09:52 AM

You know what bothers me is that everone and their brother would love to see him play with the first string during a real game and I dont understand why the O cordinators cant make some play packages with him in their with Holmes. Does he even play on special teams?

Chiefnj · 10-12-2004, 09:54 AM

Does anyone have any proof when LJ's contract is up?

I found:

"7 years, $8.85M. Voids to 5 years, $6.7M."

Can he void it to under 5 years??

Vlad, you are an angry man. But are you clairvoyant? How do you know what's going to happen?

Well, LJ is locked up for a while. He won't be hitting any incentives that allow him to opt out early.

2nd, Blaylock is gone after this year. Gone. LJ is the back of the future. That's obvious. Peterson might need to physically push that information through some nasal passages to get it into the brain of some fans, but that's the facts.

Run Blaylock, try and up his value and trade HIM off to someone for a low round pick instead of getting nothing later.

LJ is going nowhere, Blaylock IS going somewhere, why not pimp Blaylock's trade value since he isn't the RBOTF?

I'd like some confirmation too. I don't remember where I heard it or read it but I was surprised to hear he could chose to walk early.

How do you know that the #1 offseason priority isn't resigning Blaylock??

What the hell would make you think it would be? Why? We don't need the guy.

If we can, great, I love Blaylock. But we don't need him. Use that cap space to add depth at WR or CB....
