Chiefs Bishop and Leach - Page 17

**The Bad Guy** · 06-17-2013, 01:10 PM

Here's some info I got a little bit ago.

-Chiefs have had more contact with Leach than Leach's agent let on to Bill Williamson of ESPN. On Arrowhead Pride, they had a post yesterday about Terrance Copper's football camp. Bowe, Copper, McCluster recruited Leach heavily during that. Leach and Copper are very close. Leach said at the camp he wants to have a new team within 2 weeks.

-On Bishop, Chiefs are definitely interested should his hamstring check out. It all depends on his contract demands. Bishop was a fantastic player two years ago, but who knows now. He'd be great in the starting lineup with all the LB talent we have. If he's signed, Chiefs would still likely take all the LBs to camp and let it shake out. Zac Diles would feel the squeeze if this were to happen.

With all things equal, he wanted to stay in the division he was most familiar with.

Any news on Leach?

Of course neither will sign here.

.@TomPelissero puts Desmond Bishop's #Vikings salary around $1.5M with a chance to make $2M. @ProFootballTalk first reported the signing.

Nothing. Based on his negotiations with the Dolphins that he commented on today, he's asking for some coin.

Vonta Leach - RB - Free Agent

Free agent FB Vonta Leach told Sirius XM Radio on Monday that he's in no rush to sign with a team.
A Friday report from ESPN claimed Leach would sign "early (this) week," but that may not happen. "We’re keeping all our options open," said Leach, 31. "There’s really not a rush for anything right now because you can’t do nothing on the football field. As long as we’re in somebody’s camp, I’ll be all right." Leach has drawn interest from the Texans, Dolphins, Giants, and Ravens.

too good to be true, as usual

Mother****erJones · 06-24-2013, 01:51 PM

Meh, it sucks but at least were constantly looking for upgrades. We still will have training camp cuts so well see what happens.

nychief · 06-24-2013, 01:53 PM

bishop hasn't been good for awhile, injuries etc... no loss. Have fun watching Cassel play, jackass.

Titty Meat · 06-24-2013, 02:35 PM

So we can give 2 second round picks and draft a rt #1 but can't give a good player a 2 year contract?

**BossChief** · 06-24-2013, 03:06 PM

I'm surprised someone didn't step up and offer him a 3 or 4 year deal with a roster bonus in the second year and very little guaranteed money.

penbrook · 06-24-2013, 03:50 PM

Don't think we will get Leach.

John Clayton said Chiefs and B Albert will resume talks after July 4 with Optimism that a long term deal will get done. Said the Chiefs want B Albert as their LT for the future. Looks like B Albert will probably finish his career as a Chief while Fisher tears it up on the right side.

It will be a major upset if former Ravens FB Vonta Leach winds up anywhere other than Miami. Dolphins want him too much.
