Chiefs Be the GM - Page 4

This will be a repeating feature. We will take each position in turn. For each position we will look at the players we already have on the roster and whether those player should be retained, resigned, traded, or cut. We will also discuss whether we need help in the draft, trades or free agency. The first position is the most obvious position for the team QUARTERBACK.

Currently on the roster we have:

Matt Cassel under contract under contract $5million
Kyle Orton FA
Ricky Stanzi under contract approx $550,000
Tyler Palko RFA

Plan A: If Manning is retained in Indy, swap firsts and offer Bowe, 1sts in 2013/2014 and 2nds in 2013/2014 for the #1 pick.

Plan B: If Manning is not retained in Indy or the Colts make it clear they're drafting Luck, swap firsts with Minnesota and offer them a 2nd this year and a 1st next year for RG3.

There is no Plan C.

Release Palko, let Orton walk, sign a decent backup, keep Cassel until a starter goes down to injury somewhere else, and trade him for a mid/late round pick.

Your QB's are Luck/RG3, Stanzi, and a backup

offering whatever it takes to get the number 2 pick. What would that be? Let's say you offer this years 1st and 2nd, and next years 1st. The Rams are going to have a number of teams calling them to move up, some of those teams are going to make offers just as good if not better than yours. What if the Rams have a player in mind and they don't think he'll be available at 11 or 12, so they take a deal from the Redskins? I could see them taking less in a trade to not move so far down.

I'm just saying offering whatever it takes doesn't mean anything, with all the other teams willing to do the same thing. This is the stuff I think about when people say, just trade up.

This Defense could easily, with a few players in this draft become dominate. If Romeo stays on at least as DC.

The offensive talent on this team is astronomically better than was on the '93 '94 roster for Joe to work with.

Not saying I want Peyton or that he will. Just comparing.

Just a reminder what the Falcons did last season.

Moved up from 26th to 6th overall in the 1st rd, swapping those picks.

Then traded last year's 2nd and 4th rounders and this year's 1st and 4th rounders for a WR!

Jeez, just make a trade already Scott it's for a QB!!!!!!!

But seriously, If someone is willing to give up that much to get their Franchise QB a weapon, you would think a Franchise would want to give up more to get said QB.

I remember thinking how crazy that was from both sides.

To be sure I understand, you're proposing paying 3 1st round picks, 2 2nd round picks, and Bowe for Luck? If I'm reading that correctly, I wouldn't buy into that. Way too expensive.

If I were the CHiefs GM?

I'd fire myself and go jump off the tallest building in downtown KC, hoping my savior Matt Cassel allows me to sprout wings.
