Pioli on Carr....

[Consistent1]

Brandon Carr - DB - Chiefs

Chiefs GM Scott Pioli insists the signing of Stanford Routt does not affect the team's feelings for free agent Brandon Carr.
"As a matter of fact," said Pioli, "Romeo [Crennel] and I both reached out to Brandon yesterday as this was unfolding and talked to him. ... He knows, and he's known before, he's someone we want to keep here, and he's still someone we want to keep a Chief." That may be true, but it's now easier said than done if Carr draws an attractive offer from another team -- as is expected to be the case.

I somewhat expected this to be news.

I take it it is in some other thread?

No excuses man. It would have only taken an hour or two to read that to be sure you weren't reposting.

It's good they're not burning bridges here.

But have you guys seen the FA CB contracts the past few years? With the new CBA, this trend will only get more outrageous.

We got a step-down in quality at the #2 CB position for at least half the price, if not a third of the price.

Small downgrade at a devalued position for half, maybe a third, of the price.

S'what good GMs do.

The problem is, the money saved probably isn't gonna go towards anything we actually need. I doubt they're sacrificing Carr just to get someone else. They're just doing it to be cheap bastards.

Clark Hunt needs to wake up and realize that if you don't bring money in, that hurts as much as keeping costs down.

Plain and simple, if the Chiefs don't sign Carr, fans will know it was because of money. And claiming money is an issue when you have gazillions left in the cap won't fly. If they don't sign Carr, they sure as hell be ready to sign a mountain of free agents. Hell, they better be ready to do that anyway.

Why do yo keep saying this? We saved 2mil, 3 Tops per year? You realize Routt's contract is only 3 years right?
