Tony Richardson question.......

[Mecca]

What do you all think is going to happen with T-Rich?

Adam Teicher irritated me yesterday because he said he didn't think the Chiefs should bring him back because in his words. "Richardson makes to much money for a guy who's only on the field 30-40% of the offensive snaps." Then he went on to talk about how they needed to get production from younger guys like Kris Wilson.... :rolleyes:

I'd like for Richardson to come back, but I'm not sure the Chiefs can pay him what he's been making.

[Hoover]

I'd take him back, but we can't break that bank on him

[nychief]

I think he'll be back. Wilson is a freakin' joke at this point.

I would not be happy going into the season with Ronnie Cruz as our starting FB.

[Rain Man]

T-Rich is a pretty valuable guy. Great blocker, great mentor, team leader, success story for the younger players, and he can catch and even run with the ball. I don't know about the salary cap, but I'd sure be disappointed if he left before his time.

Ditto. Richardson will be 35 by season's end and, realistically, there is a limit to how much we can pay a fullback. Maybe one of these days Kris Wilson will figure out how to block. :shrug:

Most importantly, he's kind of LJ's father figure in the locker room. I actually like Ronnie Cruz and hope we can develop him into a good FB, but I'm in no hurry to get rid of T-Rich.

For the record, T-rich retired in my madden season and i put kris wilson at FB and he blocks like a champ....KEEP DOUBTING KRIS WILSON

[morphius]

The prob was that we were still paying him like a RB, the question is whether he will come back at a FB's pay.

[Braincase]

Alot of it depends on Robert HOlcombe's progress and Ronnie Cruz' progress. We haven't always been kind to aging fullbacks... just look at how Kimble went out.

[Thig Lyfe]

T-Rich get richer, and boy do we need him for our blocking game!

Well in fairness, Anders got moved to HB then ripped his achillies and his career was over.

[Dunit35]

We can't get rid of T-Rich. That'd be stupid.

[Chan93lx50]

I can't see T-Rich telling the team to go f*ck themselves I want more money!

He is no spring chicken, he is LJ mentor, and no other team is going to pay him monsterous dough to have him play for them, so I could see TRich taking a pay cut if needed.

As far as I know he is a team player and probably wont press the money issue!

Of course what in the hell do I know this is JMHO

Holcombe was a one year deal, I believe.

No we cant

[beer bacon]

Teicher is a dumbass.

[nascher]

If he wants to play another year i am sure he will for less money he earned enough as FB.
