So...when are we going to address the Dline?

[Chiefs Pantalones]

We can't do it in the draft, IMO, I mean, if we want to be good. We have to at least get one in FA since our two starters are gone.

So what's gonna happen?

[recxjake]

Ian Scott please

[NFL16]

I don't know, but IMO, all these players we're signing won't make near as much of an impact on the defense as possible if we keep the current DT's we have. Plus, considering the fact that our two starters are free agents, the situation is not very good.

BTW, anyone know if there will be any DT's left that can start for us by the time we are up to draft?

And, who are the best free agent DT's left?

[Crush]

I second the notion on Ian Scott. I also propose that we give Ryan Sims poisonous donuts.

[Thig Lyfe]

Herm can whip Ryan Sims into shape!

[Direckshun]

We should run a 3-4 with Scanlon at the nose.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

We should run a 3-4 with Scanlon at the nose.

That won't work because Scanlon is penciled in at starting QB.

[milkman]

We should run a 3-4 with Scanlon at the nose.

Hell, we're gonna run a 2-5 after Allen comes back from his suspension.

1-6 till then.

[KC56DJ]

if we can somehow get ahold of okoye or carriker they are both probably good enough to step in and start, if not then i think ian scott would be a good pickup

[jlscorpio]

I'm holding out hope that we get a guy in the 3rd or 4th, ala Jared Allen, that makes some kind of impact

[RealSNR]

Hell, we're gonna run a 2-5 after Allen comes back from his suspension.

1-6 till then.I feel sorry for the poor saps who have to block the one Rich Scanlon

[recxjake]

Do we carry 4 DE's and 4 DT's?

Last Year....

Tamba
Allen
Wilkerson
Hicks

Reed
Edwards
Sims
Wilkerson

As of right now:

Tamba
Allen minus the first 4 games
Hicks... ROFL

Sims

This isn't looking so good

[Chan93lx50]

Hate to say it, but Warren Sapp

[Dunit35]

I know we have a lot of holes...but do you guys think Carl is thinking about moving up to get Okoye or something?

[ChiefsCountry]

Patience people, crap free agency has only been open a few days.

[recxjake]

I just can't believe that Hicks is still on the team

[Chan93lx50]

I just can't believe that Hicks is still on the team

WTF Goonther, Dick and now Hermie (Did he play for Marty)

Cut his F*cking ass somebody?

[ferrarispider95]

DT's are hard to come by in Free Agency. I think we need to resign Wilkerson and then hope for the best in the draft.

I am still not sold on picking up a WR in the 1st, I would rather invest in the OL or DL depending on who is on the board.

Cmon, hicks is the heart and soul of the defense

Chiefs defensive tackle James Reed, an unrestricted free agent, met Wednesday in Houston with the Texans. The Chiefs are trying to re-sign Reed, a starter last season.

The Chiefs had no visits scheduled for the rest of the week. Cleveland defensive tackle Alvin McKinley is scheduled to visit on Tuesday.

[Otter]

Herm can whip Ryan Sims into shape!

And Carl Peterson will win us a Super Bowl and there was nothing dysfunctional about Gunther Cunningham coming back and we still have a shot at the playoffs with no offensive line and no defensive line and that buy your groceries online stock I bought back in 1999 is still going to skyrocket.

Honey, cut me up another line of Prozac will ya.

Who would you rather have at backup DE?

[acesn8s]

Who would you rather have at backup DE?and Hicks is a....?

[|Zach|]

and Hicks is a....?
A backup DE... :hmmm:

[htismaqe]

I know we have a lot of holes...but do you guys think Carl is thinking about moving up to get Okoye or something?

I think that's one of the things they're looking at...

[Bugeater]

Patience people, crap free agency has only been open a few days.
**** that, it's fun to watch everyone freak out.

[Brock]

Who would you rather have at backup DE?

A young guy who wants to be a starter.

[Lzen]

A backup DE... :hmmm:

He should be a 3rd or 4th string DE. He is not even the quality of a backup NFL DE. I can't wait for the day that they cut his sorry arse.

[bringbackmarty]

Alvin McKinley

Abiamiri or the johnson kid from georgia, and as much as i hate sapp i think if we got him it woudl be great cuz one thing he would bring is a little attitude if nothin else maybe show sims that to play DT in this league u gotta play pissed off

[Sure-Oz]

Sapp would atleast be a nice plugin for a year or two, we just need decent bodies at the DL honestly and there isn't much out there. What about Robaire Smith?

This post makes zero sense.

[Mr. Laz]

i can't recall the last time i've seen a time go into an offseason with ZERO starting defensive tackles on their roster.

ROFL


Ryan Sims and Brian Howard are the only DT's we have under contract. :eek:

and there is a good chance imo that Sims get cut ... well there is if we ever sign somebody else.

[B_Ambuehl]

John Browning was the best defensive tackleon the roster and like an idiot Herm cut him.

It's a little disconcerting that we don't even have warm bodies to fill the roster spots.

On the other had, it's quite exciting that we don't have the EXISTING warm bodies filling those roster spots.

[Pushead2]

Ian Scott would be a nice pickup.... Warren Sapp had a good year last year, good choice for 1 or 2 years but we need to draft someone!!!!!!!!! Not some guy from Cleveland....They must have been impressed from the victory against us.

[StcChief]

Ian Scott my first choice.

Warren Sapp despite being a Faider/Bucc still has something in the tank. Could motivate lead by example.

[ChiefsCountry]

John Browning was the best defensive tackleon the roster and like an idiot Herm cut him.

He was also hurt.

[Brock]

John Browning? Jeez, while you're at it why not complain about Joe Phillips getting cut...

[Sure-Oz]

He was tough, esp with that metal plate in his head, he'd tackle people Ram-Man style.

[J Diddy]

This post makes zero sense.

the good news is that also cost you zero cents.

[GoHuge]

John Browning was the best defensive tackleon the roster and like an idiot Herm cut him.He must have been one of those guys that really showed up on tape. I always heard Vermiel raving about him. Don't ever remember him making plays.

[Hammock Parties]

Usually your takes are solid but this is just ignorant. Browning was injured. His back was completely ****ed.
