- One will get open and get good yardage for a first down
- Run Jamaal on a delay draw; with the LB's in coverage instead of crowding the line all he needs is a seam...
- Pump to the middle and dump to Jamaal in the flats; again, it just buys him more time and space to do his thing

I would love to hit on one of these guys and have Kelce come back strong; assuming we make a splash for a WR in FA (healthy Maclin).

Christ, when does FA Start? This may be all bullshit until then.

Jermichael Finley has a Dorsey connection. Just saying.

Jermichael Finley has a fused spinal connection. I'mma pass on him.

Dorsey also has a Packers connection with James Jones and BJ Raji, though...

Hey Direckshun, just a thought. Now that we are fixing to sign Weston Dressler for punt return and slot receiver duties McCluster is not going to make this football team.

People have been saying that for the last 2 years.

McCluster wont "make the team" if another team gives him more money.

I think Dressler does little more than give the Chiefs an "option" to bring down the price on McCluster.

We'll see.

This.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Chiefs retain him at a price most people here won't like. He's not a throw away player.

The difference this time is McCluster is a FA this offseason. It was mentioned somewhere that he was looking for a contract that would pay him 3.5 to 4 million a year on average over 5 years.
There is no reason to sign a guy like Dressler if there were plans on keeping McCluster.

Dressler is training camp fodder. He's competition.

So you think a guy that is an all-star in his current role would leave that type of a situation to go where he would have little if any chance to make a team in the NFL? That would be pretty damn stupid.
I would imagine when we see his contract it will become clearer.

Oh my god, please stop.

Going to the NFL, even as camp fodder, is a huge pay increase.

ROFL

He probably tripled his salary the minute he signed.

Not to mention the fact that the NFL is leaps and bounds more prestigious than the CFL.

There isn't a single CFL player that wouldn't sign with an NFL team.

If he doesn't make the roster he will not get paid.

I guess that depends on whether you are alright with just riding the pine for some $$$$. I think most would rather be playing the game and making a difference.
