I thoroughly enjoyed the 0-4 preseason, the lack of o-line play, running game, passing game, return game, coaching change, the D-line play etc....

I actually believed Pioli when he was quoted as saying that he had his pro scouts, including himself, scouting as many preseason games as possible to get a good feel for the 650+ players getting cut yesterday.

What I don't understand is, out of 650 players, he finds 1... 1 player, out of 650, that he feels is better than what he already has...

Next to the draft, this is the time to find talent.

Especially since the scouting staff has spent sooo much time in the field, turning over every rock to improve this team.

1 player..... ****.

Well, that move I could probably understand. Does Toomer even play special teams? If not, then that's probably why. The Chiefs are not only trying to upgrade their offense/defense, but they are also trying to find back-ups who can play special teams at a high level.

In all seriousness, the special teams has somewhat improved during the pre-season, so they DO got that going for them. They still need a returner, unfortunately.

Most, if not all organizations have people who do nothing but evaluate other team's rosters during the PS, that way when this day comes, they can get their claims submitted, or FA contacts offered in a timely fashion.

Your pro personnel guy has a list of guys that if they become available, the team jumps on them immediately.

This isn't designed to be a wait-and-see type deal.

just so we're all on the same page:

we're furious and angry that pioli acquired a consensus upgrade starter at RT and cut Richardson in the process?

and acquiring this universally agreed upgrade at our weakest position is further proof that pioli is sitting on his ass and a liar to boot?


that about sum it up?

Is Bobby Ingram going to play better special teams than Toomer? Who cares!

Bowe and Toomer = good idea.

Bowe and Ingram = meh.

It's a free all you can eat buffet right now. No one is arguing that cutting the bottom third of this roster will do any kind of damage to the team. So why not try and infuse some talent in here by signing guys we just spent months scouting before the draft?

We can get "22 guys off the street" right now, and we aren't doing anything.

"Consensus upgrade" isn't saying anything.

I'm trying to get caught up, but from what I can tell, you're wrong as usual.

Seems to me that people are a bit perplexed as to how the eleventy-billion-time Executive of the Year can only find one player out of hundreds cut that can improve the worst 53 man roster in the NFL.

Actually, I would perfer Engram over Toomer as of this point, because Engram is actually considered a great 3rd down target. All teams need that.

And yes, I care, because Special Teams is very important as offense and defense in today's football.

They also cut our only hard hitting defensive player. Now we don't have anyone who will play with enthusiasm. :shake:

'Hamas' Jenkins 09-06-2009 08:26 PM

Engram at least has use value. Toomer is just a broke dick dog.

Tiger's Fan 09-06-2009 08:27 PM

It's refreshing to see all these women posting on the Planet. We need more input from the fairer sex on here.

Once again maybe the players being cut are just as bad or worse than what we already have?
