TO WAS a top-flight receiver. Yet all people like Kaplin can do is marvel at why Chiefs fans think he's so good.

You don't run after the catch like Bowe does and be just another guy.

WRs drop shit. It happens all the time. I'd rather try to fix the problem by getting Bowe a real QB. I'll bet that would make the drops go down REALLY quickly.

Raw numbers mean nothing - 12 drops is high for 12 attempts but meaningless for 1200. You need to look at percentages. That said, he's not on this list. Nor is he on this list for the year before. As in the second article, you can see he is indeed on the 2008-2010 total list... along with Owens, Moss, Garcon, Colston, and Marshall. Add in who's throwing to him and its clear he's pretty damned phenomenal.

so then why aren't other NFL teams lining up to trade a 1st round pick to get such a stud wide receiver?

Because as Chiefsholic said, they can't. Bowe never signed his tag so he can't be traded. The tweet in the OP is false.

I don't know why teams don't want to take Mike Wallace. Beats me.

Maybe he had a pen in hand while sitting next to his agent as trade deals were being tossed about.

that's bull shit

It's happened before ... a player gets tag but doesn't sign the tag until a new contract is worked out. If the Chiefs work out a trade then the new team can work out a long term contract with Bowe. Then Bowe gets signed/traded.


as for whether any of these tweets/rumors are true or not ... we don't know.

This thread = lots of people bitching about pioli and laz slamming bowe. So exactly what I expected.

So wait, teams were supposed to work out a long term contract for Bowe during the 3 hr first round?

:spock: Peterson had many, many awful at best drafts. When he hit, he hit big. When he missed, he also missed big. Pioli at least has relatively solid if unspectacular drafts. Also Peterson was notorious for lowballing players and causing them to leave or hold out forever.

How am i slamming Bowe?


I am discussing the reason why the Chiefs might want to trade Bowe and why other teams might not want to pay a first round pick.
