By the way his collarbone he broke twice has a steel plate over it now after the surgery he had so that is a moot point now I seriously doubt it will ever be broken again.

Not at all. Of course our WR's could use an upgrade. So could the WR corps of at least 2/3 or more of the NFL. I just see no reason to take a chance on a proven turd like this. (knob) Polish this guy all you want, he's still a waste of space on a depth chart.

Yeah, our WR's are so horrible and unworkable that we've only passed for 4000+ yards or so a season recently.

He won't get hurt again because he has a bionic collarbone? I think you've been raiding Charlie's stash. :rolleyes:.

Apparently you like the lazy, moronic pothead. I don't. :shrug:

BTW- What "talent" has this guy proven at the NFL level? Other than for riding the IR list, that is?

Yes, but I still fail to see how a good player in college automatically translates to a fantastic player in the NFL. Because Chris Horn AND Boe have both done more in the NFL than Rogers has in 3 years.

If you really want to add Charles Rogers to that ever-growing list of overrated former first-rounders that the Chiefs have a tendency to acquire, then fine by me. As far as I'm concerned though, Rogers will be nothing more than another Troy Edwards.

Cheap talent for a position we lack talent at.....obviously the natural talent is there maybe a change of scenery and we're the team that turns him around. Just because he didn't work out in Detroit doesn't mean he won't work out here. If I'm taking a chance I'd rather do it on him a guy with the natural talent to get it done that needs some coaching and a change than a guy who just flat doesn't have the talent to play in the NFL.

Just saying by this logic Eddie Kennison should have been out of the league 6 years ago and never played here.

I'm not even going to sarcastically say, "SIGN HIM CARL!!!!!!!!"

I want nothing to do with Rogers.

Then Eddie Kennison should have never been signed by this team......you guys are awfully quick to dismiss him as a failure that will never turn it around.

It's a CHEAP risk with a possible high return. If he doesn't work out he's gone after the year, I don't see how this is a bad move at all. What's the downside you don't give him big money and move on if it doesn't work out. If it does we stole a WR without having to draft one.

Then according to Mecca, you're exactly what's wrong with the Chiefs fanbase these days. If you were head coach, we'd still have Brian Shay and JJ Moses on this team

Those guys had 0 talent......smacking up huge numbers against guys who get cut doesn't impress me. So I don't exactly know how that has much to do with what I say.

Clearly he's the answer if you have crappy WRs.

Sincerely,
Scott Vines, Mike Furrey, and Shaun Bodiford (receivers the Lions kept over Rogers)

Yeah. Right. A WR who was in a dispute with his coach over not being around during a serious family issue is the same thing as being a lazy WR with years of proven substance abuse issues.

I could care less if the guy smokes pot, crack, or pole on his own time. However, he's in a role where it affects others on his team. I don't want him anywhere near the Chiefs. Bad attitudes are infectious. Exhibit A- The last years of Marty in KC.

You're goddamned right I would! And you'd love me for it!

Some players will never work out in certain places.....their new coach is trying to establish his tough guy schtich and Rogers is pretty much a symbol of the last staffs failure. That doesn't mean he won't be able to contribute for another team.

Yet you seem positive it means that he would.
ROFL

While we're at it, we can get Todd (sorry dad, I prefer bong hits) Marinovich in here.
