Chiefs Bishop and Leach - Page 18

**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.

I don't even...

He said it on NFL32 today.

It speaks volumes about his hamstring tear that a player of his caliber was only offered 1 year deals.

I would put it 50/50 that Bishop comes back, plays at an above average rate, and can stay healthy with that type of injury. Truth be told, he won't be the last quality LB to be released this offseason.

It's interesting that Bishop chose a 4-3 and an open competition with Erin Henderson over another 1-gapping 3-4 where he'd be the clear cut starter. Ah well... It's a two-horse race now. I have to think Jordan's in the driver's seat for the starting gig.

Leach’s agent says no team is out of it yet
Posted by Darin Gantt on June 27, 2013, 2:32 PM EDT

It wasn’t that long ago (yesterday) when the agent for Pro Bowl fullback Vonta Leach was saying he thought the Dolphins would be his client’s destination.

Today, he wants everyone to know there’s still plenty of time to bid on this coveted item.

“Nobody has been excluded,” agent Ralph Vitolo said, via Fox 26 in Houston. “You have to put Miami, Houston and the Giants in the first three.

“Kansas City is also involved and Baltimore is included in this also.”

Vitolo said that with NFL decision-makers scattered and on vacation, it was hard to envision a deal soon. But he reiterated the

“It’s difficult to get anything done right now because many club officials are gone and some of them are out of the country,” Vitolo said, reiterating that the Dolphins made the most sense.

“We’re not playing football so the sense of urgency is not there for us to do it or the teams,” Vitolo said.

Of course, if any of those teams would make a more substantial offer, that urgency would likely increase.
