There is some stupid shit in that article (Ingram to the Cowboys? The rest of NO's Rbs are hurt right now) but I would be all over bringing VJax here.

The Chiefs aren't good enough to win the SB this year or the next, so this and any other veteran trade proposal makes no sense.

They need to make the moves to be ready for 2017 at the earliest.. trading draft picks for vets prohibits them from making the right moves.

Actually, I wouldn't be the least bit shocked to see this happen.

I think it'd be a horrible business decision though.

quoted for truth.

You've gone on record numerous times claiming we should trade Houston and Poe.

Your opinion on the subject means diddly.

vjax only has 1 year left on his contract?

id be all for this if it means we cut bowe at the end of the season. you have the rest of this season with bowe/vjax and then replace bowe with the better player into the offseason

Should have traded Houston, Poe you have to keep if you're insistent on the 3-4.

But if you want to be real here, they never should have traded for Smith, should have let Bowe walk after 2013 and should have traded JC. They would have sucked in '13 but the team would be in a much better position to move forward than they are in now with an aging, game manager QB, with past-prime starters like DJ and Tamba and young guys who are going to demand a ton in FA like Berry and Houston.

If the Chiefs aren't good enough to win the super bowl this year, then there isn't a team in the league up to this point that is.

Every team that's touted as a contender, save for maybe Denver, isn't that much better than the mid tier teams.

The Chiefs have played, iirc, the toughest strength of schedule in the afc up to this pijnt, and other than the titans game which you hope is an outlier, have been right there and have beaten other "contenders".

Getting into the playoffs is the goal, then get hot and see what happens.

Wouldn't it make more sense to try and pick up a good slot receiver since the team likes the short passing game

No, it's actually easier. You don't have to win series.

Mr. Laz 10-22-2014 12:03 PM

I doubt it.


If we were in 'win now' mode we would have been more active this last offseason.

Nightfyre 10-22-2014 12:07 PM

It makes no sense. It's not like Vincent Jackson is the kind of player that puts us over the top or anything like that.

Jfc that is the dumbest shit I have ever read

Can they afford him? There cap is what? 6mil? I remember he signed a big contract a few years ago. I'd rather they trade for Andre Johnson.
