I answered the question very clearly. Directly? Eh. But very, very clearly.

So let me be more direct: At this point I've seen precious little evidence to suggest that Pioli wouldn't **** up a wet dream, so until he provides otherwise, I'll consider him to have the talent evaluating skills of his soul mate, Dayton Moore.

I don't think you answered my question so I will try again. Are the Chiefs stupid for cutting Alleman and are the Colts smart for signing him or vice versa?

I'm sorry that you didn't understand my initial post because, again, I answered the question.

How did the Chiefs acquire Alleman, again? Oh, and how did the Colts acquire him? And what is his role going to be in Indy, since they also gave up something to get him?

I always like fictitious binaries.

But...right now, keeping Alleman would make far more sense than signing Lilja. But I wouldn't have made the trade for him in the first place.

I wasn't trying to create a fictitious binary I was just asking a question. Pioli and now Polian saw something in the guy to give him a roster spot. Of course so did 3 other teams in 3 years and each time he got cut\traded.

Do you remember what pick we traded for Alleman\Ndukwe?

I like the signing of Lilja as long as he is healthy. He is fairly young and should be in the prime of his career. He is a definite upgrade over anything we had at the position.

My bad.

I believe it was a late-round selection. We don't have any 6th or 7th rounders, for example.

Here's my deal. Yeah, people saw something in Alleman, just like Pioli, who saw enough to give up something of real value in return. Yes, I'm one of those idiots who think even 6th or 7th round selections can be meaningful.

That said, I'd rather have Alleman for o-line depth than a player who *might* be washed up because of injuries. Now, I guess this is where you have to trust your medical staff. If they say Lilja is fine, well, all right...

I couldn't disagree more.

He is in no way, shape or form, an "upgrade" over Wade Smith.

And why would Bill Polian cut a guy in the prime of his career?

I agree with this, both guys known to be 'great execs asst gms etc' havent shown shit yet....Pioli doesn't get much patience and his draft last year wasn't good at all, esp our top pick. The FA decisions are mediocre at best

This draft will make this place implode or have hope that pioli isnt clueless
