You know what's worth considering?
 

We have a ton of players with expiring contracts this year.

In addition to the Matt Cassel decision we'll be making at year's end, we're almost certainly losing Brodie Croyle.

Jamaal Charles will be a free agent. Priority A1.

We're also set to have absolutely nothing at center. Both Wiegmann and Niswanger are up.

We're also set to have absolutely nothing at nose tackle. Edwards, up. Smith, up.

Our entire starting linebacking corps is up for contract. Vrabel, DJ, Mays, Hali. That is a huge opportunity to revamp our defense.

Brandon Carr is worth resigning, and he's up.

Also, Mike Cox, Leonard Pope, O'Callaghan, Travis Daniels. Meh.

So this is a big, big year for us after the season. The best player on our offense is up for FA. And we have a chance to drastically remodel this team at QB, C, NT, and all LB positions.

In other words, we have a chance to make this a completely different team in 2011.

So you're saying we should draft some players? I agree. I think that's a good idea. I'd opt for perhaps one every round.

the only guys they should really focus on resigning are: Carr, Charles, and Hali.

Other than that, meh

We are doomed...

Pfft. You're going to fix all these holes with two high rounders, a couple midrounders, and a bunch of low-rounders?

What do you suggest?

1. QB
2. OLB
3. NT
4. C
5. ILB
6. NT
6 (Page?). QB
7. ILB

Think that'll do it, Sarcasmo?

Sarcasmo. Funny.

I think there won't be football as we know it in 2011.

I believe teams FOs are preparing for this now.

Either that or Pioli is stupid, Haley is crazy and Matt Cassel can't throw a pass over 5 yards and is inaccurate as hell. And Weis and Crennell suck because they failed as head coaches and the Chiefs suck because they didn't draft a franchise quarterback and a nose tackle.

Does anybody know where I can get a Patrick Dennis jersey?

Dinny

So, with all of our players up for possible contract renewal, hopefully we see the best out of all of them.

Maybe some of the currently cheap payroll is being saved for signing some of these guys long-term.

depending on what kind of season JC has I could see him commanding CJ type wants + money and if that's the case you could see a Chiefs franchise being too cheap and not wanting to budge.

I could see them slapping the franchise tag on him and he holds out next year coming from a mile away.

If for some reason they lose him to free agency I am done cheering for this franchise.

It doesn't matter. There will be a lockout next year sadly.

I don't buy it. Neither the players nor the owners want to lose out on the billions in revenue. There will be some 11th hour deal worked out.

I really really hope so.

Can't wait to hear the first salvo of "Trade Charles now while you can get something for him" on local sports talk radio. I'm guessing 610 will be first on board with this. LMAO
