Brandon Flowers done
















Quote:
Chiefs released CB Brandon Flowers.
Flowers' performance and usefulness in Kansas City slipped dramatically under new DC Bob Sutton last season, as a press-man scheme was installed in the secondary and Flowers failed to find a fit. He wound up mostly at slot corner, and was beaten relentlessly. The Chiefs were trying to trade Flowers, but found no takers for his contract. Flowers had some of the best years of his career under now-Texans DC Romeo Crennel, and cornerback depth is needed in Houston. We wouldn't be surprised to see them reunite. Flowers turned 28 in February.

Jun 13 - 3:04 PM
Quote:
Chargers agreed to terms with CB Brandon Flowers on a one-year contract.
The deal is worth "up to" $5 million and contains $3 million in total guarantees. Despite an anemic 2013 season as a misfit in Bob Sutton's press-man scheme, Flowers found a full bushel of suitors after the Chiefs released him 11 days ago. He lands in a spot where he can immediately rehab his value as a starting corner and then hit the open market again at age 29. Flowers put plenty of really good tape together from 2008-12, and will add borderline Pro Bowl shadow ability to a pass defense that ranked 29th in the league last year. With first-round corner Jason Verrett also added to incumbents Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall, this won't be quite the unit to pick on that it was last season.
He's a Charger now.

Umm what? Because we released Brandon Flowers?

This shit had to happen. I'm not happy that we let so many guys walk in free agency and we didn't do shit, but it was past time to move on from the big contracts and aging players.

I'm not happy with last years draft class now but there is no denying it was devastated by injuries. Let's give these guys time to play and show what they have before we just decide the team is falling apart. This is how good teams work, they build and develop players through the draft. We just have to hope Dorsey can draft and Reid & co. can develop them.

It's WAY too early to say they can't.

He got destroyed by all the tight ends and was slow as shit most of the time just like the rest of our coverage team and wide receivers. We have to have the slowest bunch of black dudes on the face of the earth.

We should be able to use some of the money to improve our roster.
He just isnt a good fit for Sutton's scheme. You could see that early on as Dez torched him. I bet he plays better elsewhere in a scheme that fits his talents, especially if its with Crennel in Houston. Regardless, he's always getting dinged up and thats usually when CB's start to decline...Best of luck to him whetever he ends up.

The only players we have who are old/getting old are DJ, Tamba, and Charles (in RB years) and we have good backups for two of the three if they were to get hurt. We are hardly falling apart

Oh, great. Another question mark for the roster.

Don't worry, we'll fill it with some internal candidate who will be BETTER than Flowers despite not being able to play over him while on the roster last year.

(that's how this hopeful optimism thing works, right?)

Just too many question marks for KC and not enough proven commodities to answer them to really expect ALL the problem spots to be addressed.

This is how successful teams operate. They cut good players when they start to decline.

Of course you dont...Let me refresh your memory. I disagreed with JASONAUTO about when to sign Houston and / or Smith. He said "NOW", I said for him to CHILL and wait till AFTER JUNE 1. You chimed in and said Jason was correct. Looks like one will sign AFTER JUNE 1 as I stated. The end.

He'll start for Houston if he signs there. He is better than Jackson.

I agree. It was just as DUMB when you chimed in and sided with Jason. You were both just as wrong then.

The Chiefs have question marks at the following spots now:

LT
RT
RG
CB2
CB3
FS
ILB
WR3

They are below average at the following spots:

WR1
WR2
CB1
TE1
TE2
LG

I just can't find glasses that are red and gold enough to convince myself that all of those things are going to be sufficiently addressed with internal players.
