Eh.

Not really a big deal either way.

He's nothing special, nor will he be here when the team is competing for a Championship.

Roster filler until we can groom some younger players at the LB position.

It's all foreshadowing. We intend on trading Waters, because Thomas wouldn't come here without assurances that he would be able to wear #54.

But that's cool. Haley could find 22 homeless guys on the street and win more than 2 games in this league.

You really might be the only one who misses Carl Peterson.

we all miss Carl :) like a hole in the head. The new mgmt, coaches are making good moves already.

Good signing..its only a 1 year deal worth the veteran min..he'll be starting at ILB in the 3-4 defense..just gotta hope he stays healthy

That's the difference with Carl; these stop-gaps would be getting 5 year deals.

And **** Carl; that's 11 miserable Chiefs years I'll never get back.:cuss:

He'll help school the youngsters .... Smart player thats lost a step but makes up with savy ....

I'm still not sold on the argument against Curry. I'm not in love with him. I do think that he has as much potential as an rushing OLB as any player in the draft this year. There's noone who jumps out at me and gives me reason to think they'll be worth a shit.

As much as guys that you know actually have rushed the passer?

I like the signing, we are doing it exactly the same way the Patriots are. I guess thats not a bad thing considering. We got the young players already. Fill in the game with smart veterans.


Also, whoever we draft we draft. We cant do anything about it. I just hope whoever it is, is not a bust.

The young players are going to have a bit of culture shock in this year's training camp.

Not to discount his natural talent at all, but Flowers came from a program like that and it shows. I don't give a damn what these cussed beakers think of Frank Beamer; that guy does NOT **** around.

(Oh, do he got some Oranges in HIS trophy case too? Yes. Yes he does).

I hear ya. I just think there's going to be a stark contrast from Herm's camps and this year's camp. For the players that have not known anything other than Herm...well it should be very different. I hope the newly added vets, with all their success, have the desired effect on the young ones.

Yep, it's gonna' be time to work, sweat, and bleed. Ol' Tank better eat his corn beforehand; Haley's probably contracted security to patrol that field! :D
