Chiefs 10 Players

Braincase · 09:54 AM

You are responsible for rebuilding the Chiefs for next year. Clark has told you that you can do anything you want with free agency and the draft, but you have to retain 10 players from this years squad to retain some sense of continuity with the dwindling fan base. You want players that you can count on, as well as those that aren't a complete embarrassment.

Which 10 do you want to keep? Should you keep? Which would keep your chances of getting nuthooked in a dark alley to a minimum?

For me:

1. Colquitt
2. Succop
3. Cassel
4. Charles
5. Bowe
6. Albert
7. Dorsey
8. Hali
9. Flowers
10.Jackson

I struggled with a couple three of these, ironically three first round draft picks. I rationalized how long it took for Hali to come around and used that to justify Bowe, Dorsey and Jackson.

Who would you keep for sure?

Damn, you're right. I knew I missed somebody important. Drop Jackson or Mays, keep Flowers.

Cassel - Primarily because of the money

Succop - Permanent Chief, I hope

Charles - Somebody has to make a play

Albert - Gotta start somewhere to build a OL

The rest I'd take from the defense. Long term NFL success starts with the D.

Dorsey, Flowers, Carr, Jackson, Hali and Mays (?).

Agreed. But if I were a for real GM, that's the way it would have to be.....at least until I could draft a QB I really wanted.

Replace Cassel with Flowers, and I think you might be on to something.

Only Dane has the power to go full Mecca.....and,he would need to be riding a rainbow-colored unicorn to even come close to the love Mother Sanchez shows for her baby boy.

those 10 players you are keeping are average to below average MAYBE succup is above average *edit* bowe is above average at dropping the ball

**rockymtnchief** · 12-30-2009, 09:39 AM

I'd still keep Carr and Smith.

DrRyan · 12-30-2009, 09:42 AM

1. Flowers
2. Albert
3. Charles
4. Succop
5. Dorsey
6. Carr
7. Hali
8. Bowe
9. Colquitt
10. Jackson

11. Cassel, at this point you would have to. The guy was the epitome of terrible this year, but you have to give him at least(hopefully at most) one more year to prove himself. If he cannot, then you go QB in the first round 2011.

No need for me to post my list because that's it.

And if we pick anywhere other than the top 3 again next year, that pick will probably not get a top QB. If Suh goes to the Rams, then Clausen has to be considered this year.
