Yup Reddick is absolutely what the Chiefs need. We just need a backer who ca. cover defense will be alright.

We'll open it back up during FA.

I liked him coming out

Not sure if he can actually cover thoigh

I hope we can find a way to add some talent to the defense this season but if not we will be glad to have those picks and that cap space come April.

Just gotta use it right...

Well with this potential trade dead, are there any other safety candidates to trade for?

If the Chiefs are picking late first round, Veach could even use his extra 2 to move up in the first and get it an impact player.

Jerome Woods is available

Not really.

What about Shaunard Harts

Best bet is probably guys like Watts and O’Daniel stepping up and getting playing time.

Maybe Berry can stop being useless.

Well, that’d be ideal and the best case scenario. But I sure am not counting on it.

I actually think we’ll see him play against either Jacksonville or New England. But I fear another injury will occur similar to last year if he is overcompensating for that bone spur.

Wasnt he a safety in college?

Thought he was like a de or something

Well terez reports the chiefs and Seahawks were inching closer to a deal and they all figured it was gonna get done


****

Is this the most agonizing thread in CP history?

:(

@TerezPaylor: Earl Thomas got hurt today, and here’s why he’s not the only one who lost - the #Chiefs, #Cowboys and #Seahawks did, too (complete with some bitter #news for Chiefs fans):

https://sports.yahoo.com/earl-thomas...012313571.html

Yep...seems like they were hoping to get it done this week if not by the deadline.

Standing ovation for dumb****s Carroll and co. Thomas probably knew he had an extension waiting for him here. Got ****ed over because the Seahawks wanted too much in trade compensation and decided to play him instead of sit him.

Guess PGM and everyone who said it wasn’t going to happen can eat a big fat ****ing bag of dicks. It was GOING to happen and we got ****ed.

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This is so depressing

I'm bored now.

Saw him at St. Luke's getting a red cast on his leg. It's happening!!

Been Sleeping

did a deal 'break?'

http://i64.tinypic.com/snl8w4.jpg

That was not nice. I am disappointed in you SR.

Earl likely played his last 'snap' as a Seahawk.

What about Honey Badger? Houston is terrible. Would they trade him to the Chiefs? He's on a one year prove it deal.

Need to shift attention to Patrick Peterson. Cardinals suck.

We don't need corners. We need safeties.

Wow

hmmm

What do you offer? A 3rd?

Yep, the deep middle is a dumpster fire.

I’d call Houston for sure.

Is Tyvon Branch an option? I know he torn his ACL in November 2017, but one has to wonder how far he has progressed on his rehab.

We need defense. Scandrick has been okay, but the jury is still out if he will be good the rest of the season.

Peterson locks down one side of the field. If Scandrick continues to play well, he can play the other side and Fuller can shift back to the slot and shut down the middle of the field.

This defense needs talent anywhere it can get it.

Houston won today, which sucks. At 0-4 they may have been more inclined to take our call, but now they have hope.

I'll agree that we do need defense, but I disagree that CB is the problem. The problem is the safeties keeps blowing coverages, specifically, Murray.

When safeties blow their coverages, it makes the CB's look worse than they really are.

I'll be honest with you - I just wanted to use that gif. Had it in storage longer than a Thomas to Chiefs deal.

Don't worry. I did the same thing with my octopus wielding seal.

Can we stop this before it even gets started. He's still only 28 and has 2 years left after this year. That trade will 100% not happen.

Can we also stop saying this. "We don't need corners" is beyond a joke. No, we badly DO need corners.

Texans play Cowboys then Bills

They're not going to want to throw in the towel just yet.

No.

We.

Don't.

The safety play is the big culprit as to why the Chiefs are giving up too many yards. Corners will win some and lose some. It's not like the Chiefs are throwing out Bartee and Gaines.

The problem is the safeties keeps blowing coverages, specifically, Murray.

When safeties blow their coverages, it makes the CB's look worse than they really are.

Who among the sucky teams (Buffalo, Jets, 49ers, Det, etc) has a good safety?

Bills have a couple of real good ones but I doubt they want rid of them.

We absolutely don't. The biggest position of need, by far, is deep safety. There's no reason to give up picks to rent a CB when it doesn't significantly improve the team right now. Keep the picks and take a CB in the 2019 draft.

Veach should make the call and find out.

Leave no stone unturned.

Since when did being bad at one position prevent you from being bad at another?

We need corners. We need safeties. We need linebackers. We need linemen. The priority or trade targets or anyone else doesn't really matter. We need help everywhere. LOL at our laughing-stock D not needing corners. We could have prime Ed Reed and Ronnie Lott and we'd still need corners. And we could have prime Deion and we'd STILL need corners. Holy shit. What do you people watch on Sundays.

Skor or Heath?

I can see Brady picking our secondary apart already.

We're talking about trading picks here. Nobody said we don't need CB's. We said we don't need them bad enough to start giving away high picks.

The single biggest hole on this defense is deep safety. We could have fixed that with Earl Thomas.

Outside of that, there isn't a single solitary move that would make this appreciably better THIS YEAR. Patrick Peterson is going to be more expensive than Earl Thomas in terms of picks. It's not worth it because Patrick Peterson by himself isn't making that much of a difference if Eric Murray is still manning the deep middle.

Let's sign Bernard Pollard to destroy his knee

ROFL

Htis, I think we almost had it

Pete Carroll presser.


Did you see the gesture at the sideline?

Somebody said something about it. I don't know anything about it. It's a big stadium, I don't know where it was aimed at. Earl was extraordinarily poised on the field. For what had just occurred, to be so resolved, he knew what happened. He was so poised, giving back to the players and all of us. I don't know what happened after that.

Do you realize that this was exactly what he had feared in his holdout?

Yeah. That's why it's so bitter sweet. We had turned things around and everything was going in a positive direction. It breaks my heart that we're talking about this right now.

What a chode.

This article mentions spots...just speculation

LMAO Every DE and S has the Chiefs as the top destination. The DEs do kind of intrigue me.

Time to cheer for the Texans to tank

Makes sense, especially if they keep winning and winning.

If they look like a top 2 seed headed for playoff exit because of defensive weakness, Veach had better at least try some sort of move to help.

If they’re gonna let ford walk, I’d see if Houston would take a 2nd for Clowney

You’d have to extend him next year

Clowney maybe. You gotta have a guy that can win individual matchups because our back end can't cover well enough to have to blitz all the time.

I'd still rather they focus on safety over anything else right now.

Clowney would be awesome but the secondary would still be in trouble. Plus l, what would Clowney cost? Would have to be a ton.

If they end up wanting to trade the honey badger it would be cheap, he’s on a one year deal

From a draft pick perspective? Nothing crazy

He’s not Mack and he needs a new contract

Eat a fat dick Carroll and Schnieder

Clowney and badger in a package deal

Think they have to try to get him

God damn this is just pretty shitty

I think they had him

What would that even cost? LMAO

I think we were gonna

That's my worry. Our d-backs are so bad, it minimizes the possible impact of a pass rusher.

He’d help

On a positive we know that they see the weaknesses and are thinking an all in kind of year

Both arein the last year of their deals

I wouldn't think more than 2 2nds

You’d have to hope the Lucas guy, berry and Sorenson come back and do enough

Having clowney would be awesome though

Not even close to that much .

A 2nd and a 4th might do it

Having to do a long term deal lessens the price

So can any other average or above average QB in the NFL. The hell with Brady, this is a Chiefs issue.

We have to have 2 solid safeties and a pass rush to limit the damage.

1. Pass rush to speed up the QB's throws while not getting a good enough read on the defense.

2. Safeties to read said QB's that is under duress to pick off the pass.
