QB of the future

Why Not? 03-23-2020 04:57 PM

From Hawaii. So, I’m in.

Deberg_1990 03-23-2020 04:58 PM

Nice. What can we get for Mahomes in trade?

I would trade my Mahomes jersey to my wife for that deal.

Dante84 03-23-2020 05:07 PM

Fun college highlights throwing to DK Metcalf and AJ Brown.

Strong arm and mobile, not sure about his decision making or read skills.

Possible QB2OTF?

Kman34 03-23-2020 05:08 PM

QB competition for the starting spot this year... Pat better be sharp..:D

alpha_omega 03-23-2020 05:09 PM

Sure, why not.

Easy 6 03-23-2020 05:10 PM

His St Louis BattleHawks were one of the two XFL games I watched, and it was the most entertaining of them because of his offense... if Andy wants a closer look, I’m not arguing about it

Dante84 03-23-2020 05:10 PM

In 2 years we trade him for a 1st and a 3rd after he shows out in preseason and for 2 games after we’ve locked up the 1 seed.

notorious 03-23-2020 05:12 PM

Well, I guess this guy might give us that spark we've been looking for.

Season isn't completely lost yet. Still a chance of hope.

Restructured Clark, moving some money around, the cap can be massaged.

I just want them to resign Sherman, pronto.

The 555,000 was as of 10 AM this morning per Albert Brewer. Veach has to be close to a Jones or Watkins announcement.

I love this signing. We have our own Taysom Hill.

The Swiss Harming Knife.

He will beat out Henne.

MMXcalibur 03-23-2020 06:17 PM

This makes Mahomes expendable.
Let's see if we can dig in our heels and get a 5th rounder for him in the upcoming draft.

Spott 03-23-2020 06:21 PM

Ta’amu, I’ve come to bargain.

Casey Printers was a thing awhile ago. He's definitely old, and possibly even fat.

Are you sure you're not Casey Printers?

We can still make a package with Watkins for the remaining 1st round draft picks they possess in this decade.

He'll be an exclusive rights FA under team control next year if the Chiefs elect to roster him this year.

C'mon - try to keep up with this shit if you're going to weigh in. If the Chiefs want to make this a 2 year deal at nominal cost, they can do so easily.

Tell me more about the cap catastrophe that was signing Anthony Sherman to a vet exception deal...
