Hey hey....This is Big Willie we're talking here. Mr. Consistency throughtout his whole career. 8, 9, 10 probowls? He's like the Strahan of Offensive lineman..It's Willie man.:D

I would think Beasley is the obvious choice. However, we don't know (1) if Beasley thinks he is worth more than vets minimum, and (2) what kind of shape he is in at this point in the offseason. If Ambrose stayed in great shape, and Beasley let himself go a bit, then AA might have looked like the better CB.

Ambrose can still play. Even if he is signed, I still think they go with McCleon as the starter if Edub is suspended.

Somebody told me that we shouldn't question Carl this offseason.

c'mon - I don't think Willie is that overrated.

I would rather have Ambrose than McCleon or Battle at this point. Battle always looked lost or to anxious and screwed up too much.

I know this Warfield suspension is coming as a surprise to the organization, but....

maybe it would've made sense to draft more than one CB, in case, God forbid, the one that we drafted doesn't pan out.

We used two draft picks on CBs.

Well, that is why we are signing one.

Perhaps now they're looking for a nickel replacement (Ambrose) for less money, instead of a potential starter replacement (Washington) that could want more $.

Just a thought......

If you listen to 610 Warfield will be suspended, no question. They claim that because the NFL is taking so long to make an announcement that it will probably be a 6 - 8 game suspension. At that point I called them idiots and changed the station only to listen to NASCAR talk.

There's (supposedly) already rumors floating that the suspension will only be 2 games, which makes me much more comfortable with signing Ambrose.

Like many on this board have already stated, I think the Chiefs are better off the longer this plays out.

Look, Woods played 3rd down nickel back a couple of years ago. If this is our 4th corner and Woods still has speed, why not him? He would only be playing in nickel or dime situations, he's already signed and counts against the cap.

610 AM is fine for getting factual updates, but just about everything their broadcasters say is bullshit.

And with our other picks, we were able to get the heir apparent to Gary Stills (Khari Long), a guy who can backup Casey Clausen in NFLE next spring (James Kilian), a guy who played defense in college but will try to switch to either TE or OT (Will Svitek), and a WR who we'll be lucky to keep on the practice squad (Crap Thorpe).

But why draft any more CB's when you already have Julien Battle.

The obvious answer is so we can complain about it here on Chiefsplanet.

We gave up a draft pick for Surtain. We drafted Hodge and we already had Warfield, Battle, McCleon, and Sapp. I think they did a good job in the off-season. I don't see why you are being so hard on the FO, when they addressed the issues. Nobody could have predicted a serious injury to Battle.
