Chiefs Bowe to be traded? (rumor, calm down)

Jets targeting Brandon Marshall, Dwayne Bowe?

Posted by Mike Florio on August 19, 2009 7:32 AM ET
Apparently, Jets coach Rex Ryan has stopped talking long enough to realize that his team has yet to find a capable replacement for receiver Laveranues Coles.

And so the Jets, per Rich Cimini of the New York Daily News, have had preliminary discussions with a few teams regarding a trade for a veteran wideout.

According to Cimini, the biggest name on the team's radar is Broncos receiver Brandon Marshall. Though the Broncos have shown no willingness to trade Marshall, the relationship between player and team is tenuous, to say the least. That said, Marshall has way too many question marks hovering over his career, both on and off the field.

Cimini also floats the name of Chiefs receiver Dwayne Bowe as a possible target, but we can't imagine Kansas City trading one of their only quality players -- cough . . . Tony Gonzalez . . . cough.

As Cimini points out, Jets G.M. Mike Tannebaum has a reputation for making deals late in the preseason. Still, it's difficult for a receiver to make an impact in a new offense without the benefit of participating in the offseason program and training camp.

But it nevertheless looks like something could be happening. And that's good news for the Jets, because beyond Jerricho Cotchery the team doesn't have many quality targets for rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez.

It sounds like the NY reporter is speculating more than anything.

I guess Athan was right.

I would trade Marshall to the Jets for their first and 3rd round picks.

Well, Pioli was trying to trade him... so this should be a done deal...now we are just looking at compensation.

BTW: This is sarcasm based on the stupid shit that is in Nick's meltdown on WPI. I don't believe that Bowe was actually going to be traded in the offseason.

I do believe the Chiefs would consider it now given he and Haley's inability to see eye to eye in camp. But, I think it will take a first round pick.

naked speculation.

I don't know if I would consider Haleys being a hard ass on Bowe not seeing eye to eye especially considering Bowe seems to be responding and Haley keeps saying he's "making progress" and now he is starting get snaps with the first team.

I do agree the Chiefs would listen, but think at this point the Jets would have to over pay for him and it would have to be more than a first.

He's good but no way any one gives up this much for him. He's one fight with his girlfriend away from an NFL suspension. I'd say if you could get a 2nd rounder for him you are doing good.

Yeah, he has to many issues to get anywhere near what he is worth in a trade. That is why I think it is highly unlikely he gets traded. As a fan I would be pissed if Denver traded Marshall away for a measly second round pick, but I would be fine with a 1st.

Exactly, and we're also seeing in camp reports that Haly is giving Bowe props in practice when he's doing things right.

First and a third?

Good Luck with that.

Chiefnj2 · 08-19-2009, 07:15 AM

Why in the world would any team trade away their only young, non-injured, affordable, offensive play maker?

KnowMo may be a homer, but if I was a Donk fan and he was moved for something less than that I'd be disgusted. You might as well keep him if you give a player that young with his production away for something like a 2nd. Tony was traded for a 2nd and he's like 10 years older.

I'll support the trading of Marshall only if they immediately parlay what they receive into a trade for Boldin. Make that happen and I could live with it.

jaa1025 · 08-19-2009, 07:36 AM

Bowe's not going anywhere, period. He's already one of the best receivers in the game and has even more potential to be right up there with Fitzgerald...well maybe a notch or two below.

Well he is making more money than Grbac did, maybe he can.
