Chiefs Jordan Gross may be available - Page 3

According to the National Football Post's Michael Lombardi, Julius Peppers is "nowhere close to a new deal with the Panthers and will undoubtedly be franchised."

The Panthers will have to decide between Peppers or fellow All-Pro Jordan Gross for the franchise tag, which could enable Gross to hit the open market by March. Peppers is seeking a monster contract, and the tag would "not sit very well with him."

At only 28, he could be our solution at RT if he isn't too expensive. We obviously have a lot of money to spend.

What are the chances he's affordable?

You can find quality RTs in the 2nd, third, fourth and fifth rounds.

Branden Albert played great last year while learning on the job.

I just don't get why people want to just move him.

It's ****ing stupid.

The Cowboys are sitting at home...

We'll need to spend some big money on a RT because Tebow is a lefty.

Oh, that's right. NO ONE.

Only dumb****s with too much time on their hands and no understanding of line play.

YOU opened the door to this idiocy and deserve any negative remarks that come your way.

Whatever Dane...Laz is right, you and Milkman are wrong. He did nothing but say, "That is stupid and would not happen unless they plan to move Albert to RT." I read the post and could sense a doubt that such a move would ever take place. Get off your high ****ing horses.

Bottom line, it doesn't.

Do you know what's worthless, Champ?

Using the #15 pick overall in the NFL Draft on a Left Tackle, then moving that Left Tackle to Right Tackle to make room for an over-priced, 28 year-old free agent.

That's worthless. And ****ing stupid to boot.

But go ahead and continue to endorse the idea.

It just makes you seem dumber and dumber with each post.

I didnt read the whole thread bc there is brown lava racing through my bowels right now, so this has to be quick.

Id love to sign Khalif Barnes as RT. I if remember right he plays LT for the Jags this year, but did a bad job. He is young, 26, and big, 6'5" and 325 lbs. From what Ive read, he would make a great RT, especially for the running game. I think he would be a great player to go after especially if he was not good at LT since he cannot demand a ton of money since most teams wont be offering large chunks of change for his services at LT, but instead RT. It would be a great set of T's for us possibly, and hopefully solve that ****ing problem for the next 5-8 years.

I dont really give a shit about DMac, but maybe he can play RG good. He seems to have trouble dealing with people in space, so maybe moving to the inside would be a better place for him. He could go there and play and allow us to draft a 3rd or 4th round RG to plug in there half way through the season, or next season if DMac does alright.

Niswanger isn't the answer at Center apparently, so I guess draft, or FA. Who is out there in FA that is a viable option?

I don't care if you are paying him LT money, we need a good o-line. Then we may actually be able to run to the right

KChiefs1 · 01-10-2009, 08:01 PM

to have a great team you have to have a great OL.

A good oline yes. But you don't need big money/or draft picks invested in it.

Gross is an excellent RT who is also a solid LT. But he's going to want LT money, which is too much when he would play RT for us.
