Fargas will visit the Chiefs
Posted by Mike Florio on March 7, 2010 7:17 PM ET
Running back Justin Fargas, who was cut by the Raiders for supposedly failing a physical but who claims he didn't, could be getting a chance to take another physical soon.

David White of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that Fargas will be visiting the Chiefs.

"I was told by [Raiders coach Tom Cable] that they were moving in a different direction," Fargas told White. "They said it was strictly about money. . . . I know some things were put out there, I guess they said I didn't ass [unfortunate typo not narrowly averted] a physical. I'm a little disappointed by the way it happened but I understand it's a business."

He told White that he won't be retiring, and while he says he won't return to the Raiders his agent has been in touch with the 49ers.

And if Fargas is willing to move north, his former college coach could be interested, too.

As to the notion that it was "strictly about money," Fargas was due to earn a base salary of only $755,000 in 2010. That said, there's a chance that he had a roster bonus due.

Per NFLPA records, Fargas was under contract with the Raiders through 2014, with a base salary maxing out at $1.775 million in the final year.

Chambers was a nice player about 7 years ago, now he's an aging player that played a nice final what 8 games?

He was never an elite player, if we're going off this theory let's go sign Owens at least he was great once.

anytime cassel throws down the field everyone gets a target

So was your post total targets for the year for both players with KC? Or just since Chambers showed up?

One more time...
In the 9 games Chambers played in Kansas City last year...
He was targeted 61 times.

Bowe was targeted 44 times over the same stretch, but he missed 4 games.

If we just look at the games they played in TOGETHER...
Chambers was targeted 32 times. Bowe was targeted 44 times.

Chambers didn't even start the first game either dumbass. How bout the last month of the season? Why'd Chambers get the same # of targets?

I think it's a pretty clear sign that your team isn't very good when we actually think resigning a 32 year old player that his past employer just outright cut is something that is key and must happen.

This FA period sucks, it's like being a Royals fan.

Just games played in KC. Remember Chambers didn't start his first game here it also takes a newly acquired played a few weeks to get used to the offense. The last month of the season is very telling.

I'd love to know how 555 yards in 2007 is "almost" 1000.

Nevermind. Reading fail.

On a side note, WHOO!

Chris Chambers broke 700 yards TWICE!

I thought the executive of the decade was paid 5 mil a year to find talent?

He had 415 in Miami that year. Looks like he got pretty miserable in San Diego. He did well before and after leaving that shit hole.

Also it's really difficult to quantify the value of Chambers when the Chiefs are a team that rolled up a ton of garbage time numbers.

Hell Chambers had a ton of them in the Jaguars game, the 4th hits game is all but over and dude rolls up what 100 and 2 TD's?

There's no evidence that Walters would ever do anything away from the cover of Andre Johnson.

Would you really give a guy that has averaged 600 yards a year and 2 and a half TD's while he was with Houston 4 million a year? That's what Walter got.

Chambers is a much better risk to me. JMHO.

I agree. Walters hasn't produced like you would expect a #2 WR playing opposite one of the best WR's in the game if not the best. He should be putting up TJ Houshmandzadeh types numbers when he was playing along side Chad Johnson.

He's the Dayton Moore of the NFL, big name, no substance.

Chris Chambers broke 700 yards TWICE in 6 years!

I'm no math major, but I believe 555 + 415 = 970
