Here's the REAL list of Unrestricted Free Agents for 2010

[OnTheWarpath15]

Here's a list of all 228 players that will have gained unrestricted free agency in an uncapped season.

Difference makers in bold. There aren't many of them, and I wouldn't expect any of them to actually hit the open market with the exception of Julius Peppers. (Maybe TO)

The rest will likely be tagged (teams have an extra tag now) or be re-signed by their current club.

Weak crop, to say the least.

Does anyone really think the Chiefs are going to spend money in FA when it looks like there won't be a salary cap, which means there won't be a salary floor. The same thing applies to the draft, no one is going to trade up with us so they can pay the big dollars. Not saying the Chiefs won't try to find some bargains in FA but there won't be any big names.

The excuses for Cassel must stop.

Oh, and please stop posting.

What about his WR's? I guess I never saw them get better all season. Its great that Charles helped the running game, but what WR's stepped up to help Cassel in the last half of the season? He had new WR's starting nearly every week.
...and don't get me started on the dropped ball issue. Although that's probably Cassel's fault too.

Go back and look at the last half of the season, and you will see that while the line finally started to gel, the line also was helped by Cassel getting rid of the ball quicker.

Get Cassel some tools, then fairly judge him. Especially at the WR position where they saw more change than my toilet paper holder.

Look at the way he throws the ball. Look at his deep ball. Look at it, man.

He's too busy looking at the WRs that he wants to pin all the blame on.

I'll double your casino cash if you take that ugly skank out of your avatar and replace it with Mary Louise Parker.

I don't play in the casino, but I'll do it for you if you answer the question and save me the time and energy of doing my own research! How long, though? Cuz Mary Louise isn't my favorite you know.

The question about "where is the league in regards to the uncapped year?"

If so, then:

Basically, count on 2010 being an uncapped season. The players union and owners would have to come to an agreement on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement before the new "league year" starts on March 5th.

That's not going to happen.

At this point, the concern is getting an agreement hammered out before the 2011 season, or there's going to be a work stoppage. Apparently the owners want the players to take an 18% pay cut.

It could get nasty, and we could be without football after this season.

And if you're not a MLP fan (which is sad) give me a list of five ladies you like, and I'll pick one.

Rep and 500K in casino cash to you.

So, basically KC is screwed and it will end up like the Royals and Yankees, etc. etc? Ugh. Why do they want this?

I said I'd do MLP, you pick out the picture though.

We had a ton of cap room last year and didn't use it, so financially, it won't be much different.

It does make Free Agency different though, because only 1/3 will be unrestricted, and of those, very few are quality players. Which means demand > supply, and the price will go up substantially to acquire talent.

The one advantage for teams is that you can dump all of your bad contracts and make trades without taking the huge cap hit.

And you can crop this however you like. Who doesn't love pie?

(probably not safe for work)

Just as in MLB, the wealthier owners in the larger markets are tired of "subsidizing" the smaller market teams.

So you think KC won't be affected because of our cap room? What happens when NY, Dallas, etc....start paying players out of our reach?

<---- Good enough?
