What makes you think Woods is gonna be cut? You do know that the contract he signed after 2003 is gonna cost us if we cut him, right?

They're obviously idiots then...who in their right mind would cut someone as a "cap casualty" that would than proceed to cost them MORE then if they had kept them.

teams cut players that end up costing them cap $$$ all the time.

it depends on whether they have the cap room and how productive the player is.

the roster spot may be more important than the cap $$$

i don't know whether Woods is gonna get cut or not ... but they sure are paying alot for a veteran special teams player.

Don't ever get rid of the dancing chic!! Ever!

As a matter of fact, there should be a new LAZ rule requiring you to post on every thread for added viewing pleasure.

Not when they are trying to get under the cap. I think he'll be cut, but it will probably be in June.

Unless a new collective bargaining agreement gets done soon, the June 1st deadline means nothing.

I hope we do let Bell go. I was excited about the acquisition, but it's clear there's something wrong with him, and this team can't afford to be patient with him...especially at his price.

As for Woods, we all are assuming that his contract is structured in a more conventional manner that makes him too pricey to cut. But maybe that isn't the case. There's no way to know his actual cap number or the stucture of his contract. Hopefully Peterson was smart enough to have his ass covered, and we can let Woods go rather than pay him millions to be a bad back-up.

I watched Bell play in Pittsburgh. He was a beast. A prototypical LBer. He was A constant havoc in the backfield, blowing plays up. However, injury problems have hampered his career. I think with Bell and the Chiefs it was just wrong timing. He wasn't the same after recovering from an injury. In addition to that, I think the Chiefs didn't utilize him properly. We asked him to be our "weakside linebacker" when it is clear cut he is not that kind of player.

I still think he is ok. But probably better off somewhere else. Bell is more of "right inside linebacker" in a 3-4 defense. Or, possibly a MLB. Im just gonna say if we do keep him, I wouldn't mind it, as long as we converted to a 3-4, and used him in the inside.

That's the only way I'd keep him. If we keep him, given his upcoming salary, and continously used him as our "weakside linebacker", count me as disappointed.

Try posting a SOURCE to back up your claims, rather than just making baseless statements.
