Chiefs Chiefs should attempt to make a trade for Joshua Cribbs - Page 2

The reason I say they should make this move, is that returners are tough to find imo. I don't think they're a dime a dozen. It's a tough position to address and I just feel he is one of the better returners in the game.

I think if the Chiefs can address the return game, I think it increases their chances of winning the battle of field position when it comes to games.

And a little thing like that is REALLY important. especially for a team that lacks talent on both sides of the ball. it's a good start for a team that is rebuilding. Win the battle of field position increases your chances of putting points on the board and preventing the opposition from putting points on the board. Good special teams compliments both your offense and defense.

As far as im concerned, we have kickers that have the ability to pin the ball deep in the opponents end. It seems to me now we have a kicker that can kick FG's. Can you imagine if you add a good returner to that? Nothing to get hard over, but something to get warmed up about for sure.

I don't think the blocking has been bad at all on returns. I think the returners have zero vision to actually make a read.

Cribbs would go along way to helping this offense out.

It certainly wouldn't hurt. If the chiefs could make the deal happen for a 5th we should have it done yesterday. I think anything more than a 5th is probably too much though.

I think I'd rather keep the draft pick, and try to find a returner with one of the day two picks. That way, it's cheaper and you don't give up a draft pick out of it.

Cribbs would be a GREAT addition, but I can't see them letting him go for anything less than "too much" for a player at his position.
