Chiefs start making cuts. (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=275760)

So we traded Edgar Jones who has 1.5 sacks in his 6 years in the league and picked up a guy who had 4 sacks last year as a rookie? Great move there.

I don't understand the strategy of cutting 3 exceptional gunners in one offseason. Copper, Jalil Brown, and Wylie. Don't like the move.

Jalil Brown was the only gunner out of the 3 you mentioned.

tbh our specials teams have sucked for years so i'm not sure how exceptional they were.

Our specials teams have shown dramatic improvement so far in preseason so i think Troub knows what he's doing.

Not sure if this year or last

The only confirmation I can find about any of these moves is this

Quote:

Dezman Moses and James-Michael Johnson, Kansas City Chiefs linebackers: Undrafted out of Tulane, Moses generated rave reviews in minicamps and training camp before tallying four sacks with the Packers last season. It's no surprise that general John Dorsey, a former Packers executive, is taking a flier on Moses. Johnson was a fourth-round pick by the Browns last year.

Chad Hall

Quote:

We knew Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid would be keeping a close eye on the Philadelphia Eagles cuts. But it would appear he also has his eyes on former players around the league
Reid claimed Chad Hall off waivers from the San Francisco 49ers, the wide receiver confirmed.
Hall went undrafted out of Air Force in 2008, but ended up catching on with Reid and the Eagles in 2010. Though he was unable to make it past the final cuts that year, he was signed to the Philadelphia practice squad.
The story was similar for Hall in 2011, when Reid didn’t keep him beyond the cut down to 53, but added him again tot he practice squad.
During both seasons with the Eagles, Hall found his way to the active roster, catching 14 passes for 135 yards and two touchdowns.
Hall found his way to the San Francisco 49ers practice squad in 2012 and earned a promotion to the active roster before the NFC Championship game against the Atlanta Falcons. Not a bad way to earn a Super Bowl ring!
Unfortunately Hall was unable to stick with the 49ers, but he is reunited with Reid, who has been looking for ways to overhaul the depth at wide receiver.

Oh ok also on arrowhead pride they said ILB my bad

@HBalzer721: NFL teams assigned 45 players on waivers today. Leaders: Chiefs, Jaguars 7; Browns 6; Patriots 4.

So we got hall, Moses, Johnson, cooper, Parker, Howard . Who is the seventh?

Cutting 3 guys who were easily some of the best on your roster at special teams... that's a tough sell. Especially Brown and Copper, who can do things beyond special teams too.

I trust Toub knows what he's doing. I have doubts about whether this was his decision.
