I'd say he had one good season, one average season, and one shitty season.

I don't think that qualifies as "pretty well."

Players the Chiefs could have drafted in 2005 instead of Pat Slowtain:

Mike Nugent (could have solved our kicker problem)
Khalif Barnes (could have solved our RT problem)
Roscoe Parrish (could have solved our KR problem)
Darrent Williams (younger and faster than Surtain, less-apt to get murdered in Kansas City)
Vincent Jackson (jesus christ, imagine VJ next to Bowe)

I could go on about several players picked in the third round, but in short, **** you Carl. One last time!

Surtain was exposed when he didn't have the Miami pass rush to help him.

Didn't he drop a game winning pick 6 in the Dallas game in 05 that would have got us in the playoffs?

We were taken by the mid 2000's Dolphins
the mid 2000's
ughhhhhhhh

The salary cap space doesn't really matter since we are probably at the minimum required anyways.

Good riddance though he never lived up to his billing

blueballs 02-24-2009 05:29 PM

they're going to actually have to work at spending it all

Another aging veteran that CP handed over a draft pick for, along with the richest contract in franchise history at the time.

The defining moment for Surtain was when he was basically running in quick sand after that INT during the Chargers game.

True dat.

I am surtain that Donnie sails in to the sunset this year. It was a dumb ass move to being him back anyway. He was a good assist-player back in the day, but he was never a game changer.

Surtain's savings is huge-that's ALOT of money to sign a PREMIER FA with, plus the rest of our cap space, possibly cut Edwards... We can sign ANYBODY we want this year, if we so choose. Bring on FA.

Haha..
Love the monday morning QBing that goes on in this website.
Every player is either HOF worthy or sucks. Every pickup is the dumbest shit ever... 4 years after it happens.

Surtain was at least an above average corner up till last season, that's the truth. Also every person on this site was absolutely ecstatic when got him in free agency, mostly because he was one of the best FAs on the market and but also because Carl played hard ball and got him for less than the Dolphins wanted.

Reading this thread now though, yeah you guys all knew better. Sure.

Hammock Parties 02-24-2009 05:38 PM

None of us knew better, that's the point.

Carl was as dumb as the rest of us mother****ers.

And that's why he's gone.
