Kansas City Chiefs (http://www.kffl.com/team/21/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs) WR Dwayne Bowe (http://www.kffl.com/player/16076/nfl/dwayne-bowe) said he expects to lead the NFL (http://www.kffl.com/team/77/nfl/nfl) in receptions and receiving touchdowns in 2013, and that RB Jamaal Charles (http://www.kffl.com/player/18224/nfl/jamaal-charles) will lead the league in rushing this season.
Fantasy Tip: Bowe should receive more targets under head coach Andy Reid (http://www.kffl.com/player/1978/nfl/andy-reid) but likely will not be a top fantasy wide receiver. He should be viewed as a solid No. 2 wide receiver option. Charles has shown he can be a top fantasy running back and should be an every-week starter in 2013.

I'm surprised we want McClain back. His blocking sucked.

I'd like to see what he could do as RB2.

KCrockaholic

I don't really care to see McClain back. If he does come back, that's fine. But in all honesty Mike Cox was a better blocker.

02-26-2012, 05:32 PM

What I'm reading implies that our QBs in training camp will be Luck, Griffin, Tannehill, Manning, Henne, Orton, Garrard, and Cassel. I think that could make for some good competition.

Nightfyre

02-26-2012, 05:35 PM

I'm just saying, if we resigned McClain and Battle, then added Tolbert, that would give us a pretty terrific backfield. We wouldn't need to add Richardson at that point. In short yardage situations, we could have Tolbert and McClain in the backfield. Between the twenties we could have Charles and Tolbert operating out of the same backfield and Battle would provide adequate depth.

Rain Man

02-26-2012, 05:35 PM

So on February 20th the news is that the Chiefs are "expecting Stanford Routt" to start, and on the 22nd the news is that they "would like Brandon Carr to return"?

I think Routt is a fine corner, but Carr would clearly be the starter over Routt. Where does this "news" come from? Is it just rumor?

I'm sure Carr's on the phone right now with Pioli. The conversation is probably going something like, "Hey Scott, this is Brandon Carr. I know you have already replaced me after years of dedicated service, and I just want to say i hope you replace Matt Cassel as well. It is my opinion that you replace him with RG3. RG3 will lead you to many Superbowls which is exactly what i want since i will be playing for a different team. Tell all my good friends goodbye for me. Not Matt though."

True.

But you could use that one pick, save money and get a better player than those three likely combined.

With that saved money go get a qb or NT.

I don't see why the Chiefs would want him back. His YPG continually got lower & lower as he carried the rock this year.

I just don't see what he brings to the table that pretty much any other back couldn't.

they'll get him cheap. He's a great special teams guy. It'd be good to sign him for cheap, hell, he probably did them a favor by looking around and realizing that there is no interest in him. especially as a RB.

Chiefs open to trading up or down in the first round (http://www.profootballweekly.com/2012/02/25/texans-want-to-lock-up-ot-brown)

The Chiefs got a big victory during the Combine, grabbing the 11th pick in the draft after winning a coin toss against the Seahawks, who will choose 12th. It may not seem like much of a difference, but GM Scott Pioli felt the win helps the Chiefs whether they want to keep the pick or trade it. "Not only is it a better opportunity for you to get what you want, but if there is an opportunity to make a trade, you are one spot higher, and the value of that pick is going to be that much greater," the GM said.

I was actually thinking about that this weekend.

With the Chiefs now selecting ahead of Seattle, it significantly increases our trade value to move back.

If a guy like Tannehill is available when we pick, a team may want to jump Seattle to draft him. Same goes for Richardson, who could also go to Seattle.

Its a nice bit of leverage picking immediately before a team that needs. QB and a RB. Especially considering we need both as well.

That's the one head scratcher I have about all this. Romeo said that one of the things he'll do better this time is to avoid a qb controversy. Then everything he says is basically "fuck Matt" except for the occasional "he's the guy under contract, so he's our starter" which translates to me as "dammit I can't believe cassel is better than stanzi"

I say fuckit let Stanzi start. Go big or go home.

The Rams have also had informal chats with several teams out the top 10. Possible suitors could be the Chiefs at No. 11 and Seahawks at No. 12. Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel gushed about Griffin on Saturday, saying he's the kind of player "you go up to get."

It says in the first line that we have held preliminary talks with them about the pick.

I would love for them to be able to put a package together to move up, but them simply taking it far enough to talk about that big a move is basically waving goodbye to Matt Cassel just a little more and that, to me, is exciting.

Also, a mod should update the title before we get a barrage of reposts of this.

Where does it say the Chiefs have had talks with the Rams, outside of the KFFL post?

The reason I posted the article that the KFFL link has listed as its source....

was because no where in it does it say the Rams and Chiefs have talked.

Its the reporter speculating, and then KFFL picked it up and made the headline sexy.

Stop being the guy at the party thats all like "they probably got pulled over on the way over with the keg"

For the first time in my football lifetime, the Chiefs are apparently looking at GOOD quarterbacks that there is a POSSIBILITY of getting.

Let me and my boner have a couple minutes before you start flashing naked pictures of my grandmother in front of me to remind me of reality.

You never know in this league.

The Rams could possibly cut some dead weight and take a combination of Dorsey/Bowe and our #11 pick in trade because that gives them two proven players AND a premium pick.

Truth is, they have the pick for sale and they may see a compensation package like that as better value than a bunch of picks.

Just the thought of our team with somebody except Cassel at quarterback is enough to get me excited.

There is no ****ing way the Chiefs will trade up to get the #2 pick from the Rams. It would be awesome if they did, but I don't believe for a second that they'll do it. Pioli is gonna ride Matt ****ing Cassel until he gets fired.

B. Said the team would be crazy not to consider Peyton Manning

C. Said RG3 is the type if quarterback "you go up and get"

D. All of the above.

...

You can't tell me with a straight face that the guy likes Cassel and is backing him.

Boss man I want to soooooooooooo believe D. All the above, as you said BUT their is a huge "tell" here why he stays with Cassel.

Answer- Haley's firing. Haley was never a Cassel fan from the get go and by the end of 2010 Haley was emotionally and mentally done with Cassel and Pioli knew it. Thus you have the 2011 strained relationship between Haley and Pioli. And when Cassel got hurt Palko was Haley's middle finger to Pioli as someone suggested here on the board which I thoroughly agree with.

IMHO Pioli is just playing poker here.

The fact that he's openly talking like this about other QB prospects is...new...to say the least from a Chiefs coach.

I think all of these trial balloons and leaks about RGIII and Manning are just to make the fans THINK Pioli will do something big and sell season tickets. Pioli will break the bad news to us after they've sold more season tickets. It's a marketing ploy..... bait and switch.

Well I won't be fooled by that. As I was exiting Arrowhead halfway through the 4th quarter against Denver last year, I made a statement about not supporting the Chiefs until they address the QB situation. No more Cassel. And I meant it. I will not attend another Chiefs game until there is a QB that is a serious NFL talent. No more shitfest QBs like Cassel and Palko.

Of course Romeo wants a new QB. He wants to be a successful head coach in this league, and in his experience, he knows he can't be successful with shitty Cassel. He knows he needs a proven elite QB or an elite young prospect QB.

WE got a taste of an upgrade at qb for only 3 or 4 weeks and now WE want one for real.

Crennel certainly hasn't gone out of his way to protect Cassel. He has so far said he wants Orton back, implied if Orton was back it would be a serious battle, said you would be stupid to not go look at Manning, and finally almost blew his load talking about RG3.

Now none of these comments are crazy or prove anything. That being said, none of this, or anything even close, has been talked about by the organization before this offseason. With what we are looking at, any sign has to be viewed as positive.

As down as people including myself have been, I think we are at the point where if the chance came KC would get another QB. Now I am not saying Pioli will take the necessary steps, or pay the price we feel he should. I do feel that if the right price comes around, he would go after one of the 3 QBs Crennel seems to like. I just hope he is going to be more agressive at that than most of us expect.

A few months ago I felt that even if a team offered a good trade up for a QB to us or if Manning asked to come here Pioli would have turned both situations down. Now I think at the very least we are at the point where he would take it if he felt it was fair for the team. I want more than that in agressiveness, but atleast the door is open.

In my perfect world, we sign manning, tolbert/bush, and soliai, and

1. Trade out of our spot to pick up an extra 2nd or 3rd rounder

2. Draft a RT somewhere in the mid to late rounds who starts from day one. He cant be worse than richardson.

3. Draft speed at wr and add safety depth in the rest of the draft

4. Hope that with manning mentoring him, stanzi turns into the real deal.

A real pipe dream, but it would be nice if thats how things turned out.

Most of this sound nice. But I'm sure we'll use a draft choice on a QB and should on a TE as well.

As for speed WRs, did anyone watch Steven Hill's combine? 6'4", 4:30/40, and can do this:

While Houston is still young and has plenty of upside, hes not guaranteed to be good. Also Houston's contract is still pretty small. Giants proved you can't have too many pass rushers.

If he wants to take pay that makes sense for a situational player, so be it.

We do that and it's like getting Wimbley and Routt for the price of Carr.

One of the interesting things about Rodney that showed itself is his maturity, his ability to prepare. He was our fourth inside guy, so to speak. When we had guys out, he actually played for Ryan (Lilja) at guard. Casey (Wiegmann) of course hasn't missed a snap in 100 years. But Rodney is ready to play either one of the positions. He's ready to play in the NFL (http://www.kffl.com/team/77/nfl/nfl). He's a smart kid who really has a level of maturity that's rare."

Why do you think he is too stubborn to admit he was wrong about Cassel when he wasn't too stubborn to admit he was wrong about Haley?

Hey I hope you're right. I think he might try to get Manning, but if that fizzles out, we'll probably be seeing Cassel under center again.

Chiefs | To meet Eric Winston later this week
Tue, 13 Mar 2012 17:35:44 -0700
Updating a previous report, the Kansas City Chiefs are expected to meet with free-agent OT Eric Winston (Texans) later this week. Specifics are not yet confirmed, but it's in the works.

I wonder why we would want to meet with him "later this week".

That just screams us being a fallback option.

I'm looking at Pioli's laundry list. How can a team have so much cap space and still look for the cheapest free agents? This team can't even have a cup of coffee with Manning. They let every other feasible option to challenge Cassel go by without an effort. Day one of FA and Pioli is already into second tier players.

Denver has 40 million of cap space and, if they don't sign Manning, are screwed in that the best FAs are gone. I hope PM keeps them on the fence for another week or two while we get Winston and Schwartz signed and then PM decides to go to Tennessee. The Denver fans will be right to go nuts ... all that cap space gone to waste.

Meanwhile, a FA period for us that includes Routt, Hillis, Boss, Winston, and Schwartz would be huge for us, regardless of space we have left. Winston and Routt will not count against the compensation picks we might get for Carr, Orton, McClain, and any others because they were cut prior to our signing.

The closer the time gets, the more this just makes sense.

I heard a bit of the interview Kuechly gave Tim and Pat on Movin the Chains. Sounds like a very bright kid, and some of the numbers they rambled off on him were impressive. Not a ton of sacks or INT's, but a ton of stops behind the line to go with a fair amount of pass breakups.

I can see us drafting him.

After gambling on Baldwin and Houston last year I can see Pioli going with more the sure thing this year unless Tannehill slips to us. Keuchly or DeCastro if we can't trade down and the odds are against that. I think I'd rather have DeCastro over Keuchly. We could have the youngest and best interior o line in the league.

This draft, in regards to Decastro, really depends on what they wanna do with Hudson. If they are gonna put him at C, fine take Decastro. If you are gonna keep him at G, wait and take a C a little later in the draft.

If thats the case, with who all is available at our 11 pick, I could try and get on board with Poe. If Romeo thinks he can turn him into Wilfork, hell yeah take the guy.

One big plus to bringing in a center to start is depth. If we draft or bring in a C to start then Hudson becomes the backup as well as playing G. If we go with Hudson at C we still have to add backup.

O.city

04-15-2012, 01:21 PM

Yeah, you essentially want a G who can play C as well just in case.

I think Decastro worked a little at C in a pro day, so he could likely do it if he absolutely had to, but wouldn't want to try and move him there. Same reason I don't really want to move Hudson to C, as he was a great G in college. But I guess thats what he was drafted for so who know.

Are you open to trimming some of that down? Say always keep the 5-10 most recent posts. Anything before that? Gone.

Seriously. Fuck our useless GM if he drafts one of them at 11.

Just because TJ restructures his contract means we are drafting a DE?

Neither of those guys fit the scheme we run. Like DJ said, if we are moving to a 1 gap style with some 4 man fronts, sure. But we likely aren't .

Per KFFL, the Chiefs might possibly draft someone to play football for them as early as Thursday.

It's good to narrow it down to only three possibilities.

Caller to 610 a minute ago personifies truefan.

Don't just take decastro. Take TWO "power guards" in the draft.

They'll run for 2500 yards and Cassel will look like Joe Montana.

how easy must it be to work at KFFL

*wake up
*load computer
*look at team's depth chart on yahoo
*make assumption on what team needs
*post
*pretend to look credible by throwing something at a wall and hope it sticks.

you can literally say the Chiefs need to look at every position just like they did d-line and make the post.

i.e.

The Chiefs plan to target safety in the first round because the team has yet to re-sign veterans Jon McGraw and Sabby Piscitelli. Look for the Chiefs to target S Joe Blow out of Blah Blah U or Jim Blah out of Rah Rah State.

Why did the Chiefs work out WR Keith Nichol? Because they are taking QB Kirk Cousins. They wanted to pick his brain about our HoFQBotF.

I have no doubt.

Kind of interesting, though... Cousins is a three-year captain, one of the most mature players in this draft.

He's not the kind of guy that warrants a ton of additional research...

Why is everyone so seemingly anti-Cousins? Cuz he's not Luck or RGIII?

Because he is terrible. Is a much worse prospect than Stanzi based on film IMO
