There are too many ****ing Johnsons in here.

I'd take Bowe, easy.

This year we need O line, CB, DT, or a MLB.

There are no stud MLB's or CB's around us though so I'd go with Dorsey, Jake Long, or trade down...

We'll offer him at least top 3 kicker money, but holmy wont break the bank on a kicker.. He's not a big fan of kickers, he thinks they're weird..

We do miss Darche though.. Did he stay healthy? When we released him there were huge concerns about his shoulder..

He is the best long snapper I have ever seen..

Send Brown our way. Pleaaaaaaaaaaase. Darche did pretty well. Where he excelled was in coverage downfield. I don't think his snaps were as spot on as Gammons were, but he wasn't a liability in coverage.

I've heard that they discussed trading Trufant to the Giants...

Haven't you heard? Moving Watters to Center is stoopid. We all want Watt to stay at LG instead of moving his lame ass to Center where he could decimate Nose or Tackles...He's the most experienced lineman on the team but we would all rather have a rookie calling the protection because a few years ago, Watt had some trouble exchanging the ball after being converted from a TE/FB.

There is now way this punk has learned anything in the last 4 years.....

You must have spent some tape time because our coverage and blocking teams sucked IMHO...

Bowe had a nice year and all but there is no way on earth I'd take him over Calvin Johnson, his talent level is off the charts.

I didn't say the coverage wasn't atrocious, but he was the first one to the returner a few times, and it wasn't always 40 yards upfield. I think he did a nice job.

Hindsight is perfection.

Knowing what we need and the contract he'd signed I'd consider Bowe a steal.

Bowe had 70 rec, 995 yrds, and 5 TD's. Behind a dog$#it O line, with a dog$#it OC, and mostly dog$#it QB's.

Johnson had 48 rec, 756 yrds, 4 TD's. And this with Mike "Bow before Me" Martz and pretty good offense. Johnson also had many more damaging targets to take pressure off of him.

When you consider what Bowe had around him and what he accomplished it's nothing short of amazing.

And he'll be cheaper.

Johnson also proved to have a slight tear in his vag and get hurt after a hit

Sorry OnTheWarpath.....

Dolphins signed G Justin Smiley, formerly of the 49ers, to a five-year, $25 million contract. The deal included a $9 million signing bonus.

Damn, that was quick.

Good signing for them.

Glad we're asleep at the wheel. Hell, Carl's probably in bed right now.

Exactly why I'm concerned about bringing guys in for "visits."

Gives another team time to make them an offer they can't refuse.

We're asleep at the wheel because we didn't sign Justing Smiley in the first 45 minutes of free agency. LOL

He hurt his back....

Carl's probably on vacation it never fails that when FA starts he's never around...don't expect the Chiefs to sign much of anyone, that's their MO. They paid LJ a bunch last year and have a top 5 pick which will command a ton of money with Allens tag....

Don't expect much, I'm not.

Uh, feel free to be content with bringing guys in for "visits."

As pointed out earlier, all that does is leaves the window open for another team to make them an offer they can't refuse - and never get on a plane to KC.

The Dolphins obviously had Smiley targeted and got him - without bringing him in for a "visit."
