Middle linebacker situation not working out

[redsurfer11]

Monty needs a year in Europe and Kawika can't shed blocks. I wonder if the Dolphins continue to crash, would you trade a low round pick for Junior Seau? He can still tackle and won't over pursue the play. A veteran leader on this Defense couldn't hurt.

In other words, DV isn't a valid source in this argument because he's keeping track of the guys we HAVE, not the guys we're looking at.

Oh...so the HC is not a valid source? Come on... He and everyone else in the organization said that they preferred to sign their own players rather than look outside. It was a huge error, especially when you consider the MLB situation has been an issue dating back to last year. To say that the Head Coach isn't a valid source is laughable...

Mitchell deserves slack as well, but Monty even more so since he has had even less time there than KM.

I agree that Beisel and Mitchell should be given some slack for the reasons you mentioned. However, NONE should be given to the front office/coaching staff for the CHIEFS being in the position of having to cut those players some slack...

Maybe we should have drafted Teddy Lehman instead of Junior?

Is that working? If it is, why do you want to replace him with Stills?

The Head Coach has said MULTIPLE TIMES that he doesn't keep track of who this team is looking at in free agency.

DV said he was happy with the guys we had. Carl Peterson said we had no interest in bringing anyone in.
