Rumor: Bowe will stay beyond 2012.

[Micjones]

Get your grain of salt ready.

I've been told by someone who is extremely close to Dwayne Bowe's brother that there's been a handshake deal in place since the end of last season.
This person went on to say he knew he'd be franchised this season followed by a four-year deal next year from the Chiefs.

I know nothing else, but this person seems very very confident in this information.

That's all I can tell you.

Remember, the only reason we are 16 million under the cap this year is because we rolled over 20 million.

We can chose how much we want to rollover each year...meaning they will only spend IF THEY WANT TO.

They will have no problems getting to the salary floor and this supposed "hand shake deal" with Bowe wouldn't really effect it either way.

Dude, I have 2 friends (one that used to be very well connected at Iowa before he retired) and one guy I met during an install "that works for the Chiefs" that give me information...I also have a handful of people that give me little tidbits that they clearly say are rumors.

If someone clearly says what they are passing on is "a rumor"...why is it in the least bit "uncool" to say you don't believe it?

If I had posted this as rumor, I wouldn't have any problem with those that chose not to take it to the bank to get it cashed.

I don't care about the discussion of the rumors veracity, but imposing that into a personal attack on the poster is not okay.

To me, something just doesn't add up.

If he has a handshake deal with a guy like Pioli, I can't imagine he would have missed camp.

If Pioli is just franchising him in an attempt to make him "prove himself" to earn a long term deal...him missing camp would obviously be strike one in that attempt.

Especially with a new oc coming in and Bowe being the 4th highest tenured veteran in the lockerroom.

Maybe it is being distorted by the telephone effect: The Chiefs told Bowe last offseason that they wanted two years of proof and if he provided it, they would offer him a four year extension at that time.

How will this fuck up team chemistry? Cassel and Bowe have an obvious chemistry. If anything, it helps team chemistry by forcing Cassel to develop chemistry with other receivers. Cassel has developed chemistry with Baldwin, proof by camp reports, and McCluster, proof from reports and preseason game one. Still nothing with Breaston it seems.

[Chiefaholic]

Who cares? Bowe FINALLY signed his contract and, if were lucky, Pioli will lock up Albert long term during the season. This will give us the option to use the franchise tag on Bowe again or possibly Dorsey if a contract is drawn up for Bowe before then.

You have to look at it from Pioli's point of view.

For instance, hiring Crennel made ABSOLUTE sense...from Pioli's point of view...because otherwise some asshole head coach with good ideas was going to come in here and dump Cassel.

And along those same lines, not signing any competition for Cassel, despite the fact Orton had fallen in our laps, made a lot of sense. Because why would you want to undermine Cassel and potentially ruin his confidence.

So what Pioli does makes sense...from a certain point of view.

I know this man. There is a difference between some chemistry and the type of chemistry Cassel has with Bowe. Looks TO him every play, sometimes throws it to him even if he's not open. He trusts Bowe immensely. It's always been Bowe, and then everybody else.

Cassel has shown that with Baldwin and even McCluster now. He was forced to work with them consistently. Now we KNOW Cassel is willing to look for Baldwin specifically, and trust him enough to throw it up there and let him make a play. Also seems to trust McCluster to bail him out.

Cassel now has 3 guys he's comfortable with and trusts to make a play for ball.

What happened to hindsight 50/50? He was a total douche.

He won't come around unless the Chiefs have a losing record, which isn't likely to happen this year.

Adios, Chica.

What would the CB tag be this year money wise?

10 mil according to Grimes' tender. If something like this was true you really would have expected a tag and trade with Carr. So many factors at play though, as mentioned.

This has been a fun week. We shall call it "False rumor" week. Were we spend the whole week trying to think of as many false/made up stories as we can and post them on Chiefsplanet.

I heard tonight from a really close friend at the bar whose dentists cousin is Aaron Rodgers that he only wants to play for the chiefs now and that he'll just sit and wait to be traded to us or not play at all

This is new information. Thanks!

Favre's taking his Wranglers to Independence

Ask me... When was the last time Pioli did something that made sense?

I'm not questioning Pioli. It would be a great deal from his side. No way Bowe or his agent would go for it.

Look, debating with Goatboy is about as productive as negotiating with a terrorist. Please just ignore the stupid troll and move on.

holy shit! a JimNasium sighting? Did Pioli anticipate this? If so I say; :clap:

Doesn't make any sense for him to miss camp in that event.

Unless he hates St. Joe. This was all a conspiracy to get Baldwin into the game.

He was getting his escort servicing BEFORE the season....smart.

Get your grain of salt ready.

I've been told by someone who is extremely close to Dwayne Bowe's brother that there's been a handshake deal in place since the end of last season.
This person went on to say he knew he'd be franchised this season followed by a four-year deal next year from the Chiefs.

I know nothing else, but this person seems very very confident in this information.

That's all I can tell you.

Don't play with my emotions, Mic.

Don't play with my emotions, Mic.

Trust me, I wouldn't.
Hell I JUST bought a Bowe jersey yesterday!
