The offense we runs, or at least the Mike Martz Offense requires the WR's to have and use, their brains for good. Charles was lazy in college and he's been lazy in the NFL as well. His conditioning sucks, he's got a shitty work ethic and he is not going to0 do shit in the NFL, Hello Koren Robinson.

What this team is figuing out is that Caoch Steve wasn't the entire problem. Joey, gone - Charles, Gone. Those are just two of the same people Steve tried to get rid of while he was there. Dumb**** Millen just can't admit he is wrong, so he cans Steve and brings in a guy to do the dirty work he couldn't.

Apparently at least part of the problem is that Rogers isn't smart enough to pick the offense up. The article I read had somebody from the team basically saying that he's dumber than a bag of hammers.

Thank you

It is worth giving him a shot though..the worst thing that happens is he gets cut..

I agree with the character end though..this guy needs a maturity protein drink immediately..

I think that our WR's are underachieving,enough as it is without bring in a bad influence. I saw enough of this guy in college when I lived in ann Arbor, watching him play every week and hearing about his issues, I just don't want him on the Chiefs.

And maybe his release is just the wake up call he needed.

I'll disagree with a few things you said.....if Charles Rogers was a lazy college player I doubt he'd have put up the mind boggling stats he did all while playing with no one else around him. Cmon he put up like 1500 yards and had what was it 18 straight games with a TD catch playin with f'n Jeff Smoker.

Koren Robinson has actually had productive years in the NFL.......he's an alcoholic, that's his problem.

Like I said if we had good WR's we could cherry pick fact is we don't, we're in a really bad spot if anyone gets hurt, we literally don't have another WR who can start.

I think mike bennett was the exciting O signing of the year. Enough to sell the rest of the season tickets. No way carl gets this done unless there are some 2 packs left that are unsold

you are right!!!

herm would be the wrong coach for him..

he would have to land in new england/dallas to turn it around..

he would need a no nonsense proven winning coach to see the light..

My opinion is that it depends on how many WRs we carry on the roster.

If we carry 5, I'd consider Rogers over Hannon. But if we only carry 4, I don't want to expose Webb to waivers.

The other problem is that we don't really use a 4 WR set because Gonzo is always our 4th WR. So wee need our backup WRs to be STs contributors, and there's no way that Rogers would be useful on STs.

Mecca 09-02-2006 11:59 AM

I'm sure teams will clammer to add Jeff Webb......he made a few nice catches in the last preseason game before that he looked like complete ass.

You may be right. Maybe no one will want him. But that's what we thought with Lilja and he's gone now.

I just don't have a lot of faith in Rogers' ability to straighten his act up, and I don't think he's worth the risk to lose our #4 guy.

Mecca 09-02-2006 12:15 PM

Well that's where we differ.....I think Rogers is much more talented with still a much greater upside. When you have the piss poor WR situation the Chiefs have had since I've been alive basically and you have a chance to add a guy who was the #2 overall pick and would have gone top 5 even if the Lions hadn't picked him, and you can add him for peanuts you should probably take that chance.

tk13 09-02-2006 12:22 PM

I'd be interested in seeing the Chiefs work him out. See what Charlie Joiner and company thinks. If he does seem to have a bad attitude or slow at picking things up, don't sign him, no big loss. He probably would come cheap, that makes it a lot more attractive than trading draft picks for someone like Stallworth. If he looks terrible, don't sign him. I wouldn't mind see us get someone who can at least mix it up with Dante for the 3rd WR spot. Maybe Webb can be that guy. I'm not really bothered either way about it.

Mecca 09-02-2006 12:24 PM

All I know is if Eddie Kennison or Samie Parker gets hurt we are completely screwed.
