Jay Ratliff to Chiefs?

[O.city]

Didn't want to look for a thread, sorry.

@Edwerderespn: Jay Ratliff visited Dolphins yesterday in middle of Martin-Incognito fallout. Hearing he's likely to choose between Bears and Chiefs

[In58men]

Qool

[MTG#10]

He couldn't pass the Cowgirl's physical but he's healthy enough to pass ours? Wonder if he has anything left, could be a decent backup I guess.

[Mr. Laz]

I don't have a problem if it's just this year.

catapano is hurt and he could help

gives me flashbacks to Dan Williams though

as soon as he gets a big contract he turns to shit

[MotherfuckerJones]

Change your name to Q city

[MotherfuckerJones]

Cincy might wana get in on that

[O.city]

Sorry, didn't see it on the front page.

Mods delete thread

[In58men]

Cincy might wana get in on that

@Edwerderespn: I'm told Bengals inquired about Jay Ratliff after Geno Atkins suffered season-ending knee injury. Timing not ideal. Ratliff needs 2-4 weeks

[MotherfuckerJones]

Sorry, didn't see it on the front page.

Mods delete thread

It's cool lol just messing with ya

[Direckshun]

I say keep this thread stickied, to shame O.city forever and ever.

He'll think twice before starting a thread again.

[O.city]

Where was it posted elsewhere?

[Direckshun]

I have no idea. I looked for it.

Fuck of Qers. This is new.

[O.city]

Yeah I don't think this is a q, it was just tweeted this morning.

If it's 2 weeks for him to get ready, get him in now and get him ready for some pass rush snaps against the broncos

[the Talking Can]

so is catapano out for the season?

[Sure-Oz]

Hopefully he signs, probably won't be active for a few weeks but atleast he's depth. I also heard he and Jerry Jones didn't get along so that may have helped get him out of Dallas.

[Ace Gunner]

I don't see where Ratliff would help this team.

[Mr. Laz]

I don't see where Ratliff would help this team.
He can back up all 3 Dline positions and is probably an upgrade

Jay Ratliff
Allen Bailey
Jaye Howard
Anthony Toribio
Mike Catapano (hurt)

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

MOAR FA.

[Ace Gunner]

He can back up all 3 Dline positions

Ratcliff is probably an upgrade over our other backups

Allen Bailey
Jaye Howard
Anthony Toribio
Mike Catapano (hurt)

meh, I think the team needs to plays those young bucks and toss who doesn't get it done while developing the others through actual game time. Ratliff isn't going to make this team better, I don't think he's got much left, myself.

Bailey is coming on, imo.

[Direckshun]

If we ink him to a multi-year deal, you can say "so long" to Tyson Jackson.

[Halfcan]

pass

[DaneMcCloud]

If we ink him to a multi-year deal, you can say "so long" to Tyson Jackson.

He's 32 years old.

[Direckshun]

He's 32 years old.

He's cheap, and he plays a position of incredible importance.

Tyson Jackson, likely, will not be terribly cheap.

[CaliforniaChief]

We've been incredibly blessed in regards to injuries. DeVito was banged up a bit...and Poe's been playing what...every snap? Adding Ratliff would be a nice insurance policy as the year progresses. He would also keep the other guys fresh.

[O.city]

Let him have an 8 game tryout before maki any decisions.

[DaneMcCloud]

He's cheap, and he plays a position of incredible importance.

Tyson Jackson, likely, will not be terribly cheap.

Good grief

[Direckshun]

Or we can sign him to a 2 year deal worth $4 million. And cut him after the year if we don't need him.

At the very least, he gives us TJax insurance.

[Direckshun]

Good grief

ChiefsPlanet, once again, rises to the occasion for rational debate.

:facepalm:

The man hasn't played a down this year. He only appeared in a few games last year. He's on the wrong side of 30.

If he gets more than Vet minimum, I'll be shocked.

You continually post stupid ass shit. You've been doing it for years and it appears that will likely continue.

Yay?

This. As long as he's cheap.

I haven't been paying much attention to Toribio. But every time I see him, he looks like he brings nothing to the table.

[O.city]

Vet min for the rest of the year

[Direckshun]

The man hasn't played a down this year. He only appeared in a few games last year. He's on the wrong side of 30.

If he gets more than Vet minimum, I'll be shocked.

Defensive lineman decline slower than skill positions, however. If he can play, let's find out.

The very best scenario is that we get a steal and a deal replacement for TJax, in the event we can't re-sign TJax.

[Direckshun]

Logical fallacy: ad hominem.

You're not paying attention, then.

Toribio was a key component in the goal line stand in Tennessee.

Toribio is much more of a traditional fat-ass NT plugger, though, and an effective one at that. He's not the versatile game changer that Poe is.

Almost nobody is, though.

LMAO

You're a fucking idoit. Seriously.

No one is handing over $4 million dollars to a 32 year old defensive lineman that hasn't taken a snap in more than a year. A linemen who's prime was five seasons ago.

Again, :facepalm:

[LoneWolf]

Pointing out someone's idiocy doesn't make a person a dick. Dane could be a dick for many other reasons, but this isn't one of them.

[DaneMcCloud]

Why don't you join in the conversation instead of finger pointing like a little bitch?

Oh, I know the answer: Because you ARE a pathetic, whiny, loser bitch.

Thanks for reminding us.

[MTG#10]

Pointing out someone's idiocy doesn't make a person a dick. Dane could be a dick for many other reasons, but this isn't one of them.The way he does it makes him a douche of epic proportions. No way the fucking weasel would treat people the way he does on here in person. Typical internet-tough-guy-troll.

I actually agree with you, but your shitty attitude all the time does nothing for your cause. Grow the fuck up or just kill yourself you miserable cunt

:deevee:

Do you also bleed like a woman?

[RealSNR]

Nobody has an idea of what kind of condition Ratliff is in, but he's very likely behind his competition. The bye week isn't likely enough time to make him available for Denver, and it's debatable if he'd even be playing meaningful rotation snaps by the end of the regular season.

Unless Reid and Dorsey are particularly dissatisfied with Toribio, this move isn't worth it.

[Mav]

I wouldn't really understand this signing. He has been ineffective the past two years. He is also known as a malcontent.

Not sure this works very well.

[O.city]

If healthy, he'd help rushing the passer in sub sets with Poe

[Mr. Laz]

Bailey is coming on, imo.

so you asked a question with no answer because you think Ratliff sucks which trumps any possible response? Got it.

[DaneMcCloud]

The idea of spending an additional $2 million against the salary cap because Tyson Jackson might want more than his current $4 million dollar salary next year, is quite literally the dumbest suggestion I've heard for retaining a player, ever.

Not only has Ratliff not played a meaningful down in years, giving him $2 million next year, THIS YEAR, reduces the amount that could be paid to retain Jackson by $2 million.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

[RINGLEADER]

If you're bringing him in for depth and insurance then a vet minimum or something like it is okay by me. I could see the logic of signing him to 2 years (min this year and some coin next) so we have dibs on him if he really performs, but frankly I think Cincy, who is reportedly talking to him and who has the DC that Ratliff played for in Dallas is going to throw stupid money at him because they're desperate.

In that case, no thanks. I'd rather keep who we have.

[Ace Gunner]

so you asked a question with no answer because you think Ratliff sucks which trumps any possible response? Got it.

I dont see where I asked a question. jmo was all.

he hasn't play a down for the Cowboys in a season and they cut him. seems to me he is precisely the type of FA you want to stay away from, even if he passes your PE.

[Titty Meat]

If we ink him to a multi-year deal, you can say "so long" to Tyson Jackson.

He's 35 and injury prone.

Tyson Jackson is a stud. You're a dumbass.

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

scrrraaaatch goes the record. wut?

[Sure-Oz]

He's 32 and will just be depth for this year likely anyway. It's also going to takje a few weeks for him to even get in a game

[BossChief]

Tyson Jackson loves it here and won't ask for an unreasonable amount. Team player. He has restructured twice already to make hissalary realistic.

[Chiefaholic]

for the vet minimum, yes

[DaneMcCloud]

The word on the street in Dallas is that he pulled a "Haynesworth" after he "got paid".

It'll be interesting to see where he ends up and how he performs.

[DaneMcCloud]

Tyson Jackson loves it here and won't ask for an unreasonable amount. Team player. He has restructured twice already to make hissalary realistic.
He's also earned in excess of $40 million dollars so I would assume that happiness would trump a few extra bucks.

I guess a cant blame him. He has a chance to be a starter for the Bears and would be a backup here.

[BlackHelicopters]

Bears it is.

[MotherfuckerJones]

Jay Ratliff - DL - Bears
Bears signed DT Jay Ratliff to a one-year contract.
Ratliff was released by the Cowboys last month and is still recovering from a hamstring injury and sports hernia surgery. He likely won't be able to play for another 2-4 weeks, but will serve as a much needed upgrade at defensive tackle with Henry Melton out for the season. Ratliff also drew interest from the Bengals, Dolphins, and Chiefs before deciding to sign with the Bears.

[mcaj22]

oh my god we are 8-0 and big name FAs that were good in 2005 still wont sign with us! /CP

[RealSNR]

Bullet dodged.

[Hammock Parties]

He signed with Chicago because no one wants to play with Alex Smith.

Josh McCown FTW!

[Direckshun]

Can't blame him.

He'll get meaningful snaps there in the next two years. He almost certainly won't here in 2013.

If BossChief is right about TJax (and I'm willing to bet he's not), Ratliff would struggle to see the field in 2014 too.

[DaneMcCloud]

Two years? He signed a ONE YEAR DEAL.
