[kepp]

Go Ekwerekwu!!

[El Jefe]

I havent heard of any of them lol.

[CoMoChief]

Go Ekwerekwu!!

Ditto. I also hope we go after Rucker next season. He would replace TonyG. I wouldn't mind spending our 2nd rounder on him.

Here's the graph. More info. at kcchiefs.com

So does this mean the Chiefs have not picked up Josh Swogger?

Anybody got the skinny on QB Jeff Terrell?

Did Toby Korrodi get drafted?

[Direckshun]

We signed a PRINCETON QUARTEBACK!?

WHAT!?

What happened so Swogger? I was just getting used to that dude.

[Direckshun]

Gee I can see how Jeff Terrell attracts the Chiefs. He had to avoid the dreaded Harvard passrush, and the punishing Yale linebacking corps.

Lord.

He's supposed to be as good as Ryan Fitzpatrick. :)

[phisherman]

Did Toby Korrodi get drafted?

korrodi was signed as a free agent by the cardinals

guess they like left handed QB's

[Stinger]

print'em

[Redrum_69]

"QB Jeff Terrell"


Damon Huards replacement

[dollar1]

Where's Brian Shay on that list??

~back under rock~

[Direckshun]

So tell me, this means we haven't picked up Swogger, right.

I thought htismique's offseason thread said we had.

[luv]

Is that good or bad?

[Braincase]

We signed a PRINCETON QUARTEBACK!?

WHAT!?

What happened so Swogger? I was just getting used to that dude.

The Princeton kid is just here to set up his rookie year as a financial planner. UFA in the NFL, but a second round pick by Merrill-Lynch.

[Donger]

"I am still trying to digest it all, but on the whole, this is a childhood dream come true and I'm so excited to see what the Lord has in store for me in Kansas City," Terrell said.

Lord Peterson?

[Direckshun]

I will burn this place to the ground if I cannot find out what happened to Swogger.

[CoMoChief]

Lord Peterson?

ROFL

[pikesome]

Is that good or bad?

Yes. :)

He had one pretty good game coming in as a replacement for the Rams in 2005. He's also the 3rd string QB so it's hard to say but he was a Bushnell Cup winner like Terrell.

[Redrum_69]

I will burn this place to the ground if I cannot find out what happened to Swogger.

Huzzah!

Now THAT'S what a REAL third-stringer looks like, people.

Like a man's man...'s backup.

Matt McGlothlin's orgasms leave exit wounds.

[boogblaster]

Hell who knows maybe 3 or 4 of them might play football ....

[Direckshun]

The Chiefs now have well over 120 players on their roster.

[Direckshun]

By the way, both those tackles are undersized.

But so is Herb Taylor, so.

Who in the hell does Montana ever play? A group of native americans?

[Archie Bunker]

I believe Swogger received a mini-camp invite not a contract.

Similiar to Jason White a few yrs back.

[Frosty]

Swogger doesn't show up on the roster at kcchiefs.com, but all of these guys do.

[pikesome]

I don't think Swogger has signed his deal yet.

Link (http://www.missoulian.com/articles/2007/04/30/sports/sports01.txt)

Swogger, represented by former Griz player Chris Murray and Imani Sports, said he has yet to sign a contract. Local agent Ken Staninger, who represents Harris, said his client got a two-year, non-guaranteed deal with an unspecified signing bonus.

edit: oops - too slow

[Pitt Gorilla]

I like that list. I would bet that we get some good players out of that group, even if it's just the PS.

[Direckshun]

Was Marcus O'Keith a change of pace back for Cal, or was he just Marshawn Lynch's backup?

[ChiefsCountry]

The one with the best shot to make the team is Price from Charleston Southern.

[Direckshun]

I give the best shot to Brackenridge.

Not because I'm convinced in his talent, but because CB is our shallowest position and he'll be competing with Michael Bragg and Marcus Maxey for #4 CB duties.

[Iowanian]

Who in the hell does Montana ever play? A group of native americans?

They played in the I-AA championship last year vs UNI

I'm sure I watched them play in a championship game last year....almost.

FYP :D

[chagrin]

I'm glad they threw a shitload of Defensive players and WR's into the mix, lets see who come through

[Iowanian]

The Chiefs need a #5WR who can return kicks/punts....thats what they're after.

Then they should bring back this guy from the Vermeil days:

GO TYRONE BRACKENRIDGE!!!

GO TYRONE BRACKENRIDGE!!!

Sounds like a heavy hitter but pretty damn slow.

[booger]

I know Ean Randolph is a good return man but check out the blog on Ryans. Sounds like a burner and a heck of a good athlete coming out that couldn't make grades to get to a good school.




There are normal sleepers, guys who played at small colleges, and then there are real sleepers who are totally off the radar screen and wide receiver / return man Titus Ryan definitely belongs in the latter category. A highly-regarded prospect coming out of high school in 2002, Ryan was ranked by some as the 5th best prospect in the state of Alabama behind only Ben Obomanu, Kyle Tatum, Jason Allen, and Kenneth Darby. However because he was not able to get the necessary ACT score to qualify he ended up going the junior college route, playing football at East Central Community College (MS) in '02 and '03, running track at Wallace State Community College in '04, sitting out in '05 due to a minor knee injury suffered while playing basketball and then seeing action on the gridiron again in '06 at Concordia College (AL). Despite that long and winding journey Ryan is still only 22-years-old and at 6-1 and 197 pounds he has good size but what is really going to catch the attention of scouts is his speed as he reportedly ran a 10.24 100 at one point and hopes to run a "4.2 or 4.3" forty for scouts in pre-draft workouts. If he's able to record a time like that Ryan will have a shot, whether it be as a very late pick or undrafted free agent who is brought into someone's camp. I am supposed to be receiving some tape of him to evaluate but make no mistake about it he will be a long-term project who will need to be developed on the practice squad for 2-3 years but you simply can't teach speed like that and if he's as fast as people are saying that alone will get him a look. Ryan is due to workout at the U.A.B. Pro Day and is trying to get into Alabama's as well so we will know soon enough but if he clocks the times those close to him feel he will you will likely be hearing a lot more about him between now and April. Just a name to make note of & remember.

[booger]

Looks like he ran 4.2 and left early.

Another interesting fact about McGlothlin: His sack sweat is used as an aphrodisiac in most Asian countries.

Matt McGlothlin showed Rich Scanlon how to make love to a woman and how to scold a child. True story.

Always liked Ekereckwereuyeuekyu. I doubt he has a chance to make the team though.
