I think Rufus should spend more time watching the prospects in Mobile rather than writing a column about the stupidity of those who want big name free agents.

Hey Rufus, if the Chiefs were able to draft and develop talent like the Patriots, Eagles and Steeler (the three teams that you reference) there wouldn't be such a public demand for numerous free agents. The Pats are able to have undrafted free agents come in and start because they can adequately develop and coach the kids; the Chiefs can't. If you can't draft and develop your own talent, you have to rely on free agency. Resigning your own crappy free agents who helped the team finish at the bottom of the league the last few years is even more absurd than calling for the Chiefs to pursue Law.

To rely on the same players who brought you the 32 defense is to have learned nothing.

Q: Herm, back on December 25th you were asked if Trent Green was your starter going into next season and you said, ‘yeah, why wouldn’t he be?’ Have you changed your mind on that?

EDWARDS: No, I have not.”
