Chiefs' free-agent checklist

The Kansas City Star

The status of the players the Chiefs are looking at this week:

• Samari Rolle, cornerback

Visited Wednesday; will wrap things up at Arrowhead today

• Jeremiah Trotter, linebacker

Visiting today; Chiefs want to make sure he can pass his physical

• Ed Hartwell, linebacker

Visiting today; 16 teams have inquired about his interest, according to agent

• Patrick Surtain, cornerback

Chiefs would like to bring him in, but Dolphins want more trade details worked out; they want second-round draft pick, which doesn't sit well with KC

Ho Hum.....nothing to see here. And not a word about the purple limo stopped at Diamond Joes?

I don't understand, why the fuck Carl wouldn't give up a 2nd rounder for surtain? The guy is worth it! Now, it's understandable why Carl really sucks!

Without a 3rd round pick, giving up a 2nd for Surtain is too steep. IMO. Now if it was next years 2nd, I would jump on it.

Torn between two lovers...I want both!

And why the fuck not?! That makes no sense - "we want to keep our #2 pick because we're targeting some untested, unproven collegiate player" instead of nabbing a guaranteed stud CB?! If true, that's just frigging retarted[CP spelling].

'Cause we don't have a third round pick in the draft. If everything passes with Surtain, he'll consider it, but if you look at the fact that we make this trade- come draft day- we'll only have a first rounder.

A DB these days is only as good as his front seven....

I would go for that

and maybe even add late round this year.

keg in kc · 03-03-2005, 09:27 AM

The reason we don't want to part with a #2 is because we don't have a #3 and they don't want to be left with just 1 first day pick. As I understand it, we're trying to get them to take a 2006 pick (or picks).

No shit

If we don't win this year, this team is getting overhauled. It's now or never............

C-Mac · 03-03-2005, 09:28 AM

At least Rolle and Hartwell are still in town....

Coach · 03-03-2005, 09:31 AM

I noticed they said pass a physical with Trotter, I wonder if that means they have the contract all worked out and are just waiting on the results of the physical to come back?

keg in kc · 03-03-2005, 09:31 AM

Another question is why spend a pick in addition to huge money when other stud CBs are on the free agent market without the cost of a draft pick.

And virtually everyone I've heard interviewed the last two days has said that Rolle is our priority, not Surtain. Surtain may be the fallback.

I'm selfish, I want both

I agree. Rolle is probably the better fit for the team, and more logical.
