Chiefs Amazing first day of free agency for Clark's Chiefs - Page 2

FloridaMan88 · 03-05-2010, 06:05 PM

Have the Chiefs even scheduled a free agent visit yet?

Talk about a boring, lifeless franchise.

Yes I'm sure we'll hear all the Clark Hunt defenders rush to his defense... the "no need to panic it is only the first day of free agency, the Chiefs will be active later in free agency" crowd will be out in full force to defend their Dear Leader.

Let's just save the suspense and accept the fact the Chiefs will do nothing in free agency, draft a shitty draft class that will have virtually zero impact next season, lose all of their preseason games and win 4-5 games next year.

Along the way we'll get a few puff piece articles from the KC Star about how the Chiefs coaching staff shares a close bond, how Todd Haley will be a vastly improved head coach next year, blah blah blah.

This is the Chiefs way under Clark Hunt... the same shit over and over again.

Not saying he didnt have a lot of say prior to Lamar's death, but I think it's a little unfair to make such a claim in only three seasons. Clark inherited a sinking ship of a franchise that was/still is in need of a lot of things before they can become legitimate contenders. Two or three star free agents, and the large contracts that come with them, aren't the way to right this ship. Now, after another year or two of high draft picks that should become the foundation for a contending team (that is if Pioli & Co. are worth a damn in talent evaluation) and then he still doesnt go out and try to sign two or three big-names to complete the "missing links," then by all means, flame away on Clark.

The Chiefs aren't spending any money, get use to it.

The reality is that it will do little good to overspend in free agency the year before a lock out. To do so would be poor use of resources. Why pay a huge bonus to a guy who may be just sitting in 2011.

I know this isn't what any of the fans want to hear, but the reality is that the Chiefs are a business, and are well away from a Super Bowl. Why blow the money this year? If a player ends up sitting a year of a huge contract.... then, the signing bonus was totally wasted.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Chiefs sign some guys, but I own a business, and I understand the concept of a budget.

NFL network just said the chefs are in the Thomas Jones hunt.

Take that for what it's worth.

I almost slit my wrists when I found out we missed on Chester Taylor.

He was the final piece!

The final piece I say!

chiefsfan93 · 03-05-2010, 06:41 PM

I feel the same way,I mean the chiefs gave up jared allen and now what do we have making the most money on the team...yea Mr almost two years starting! What a impact, think how many more ints flowers whould have with Allen on D.How many times did you count to 3 seconds and the opposing quarterback scrambles or bides time and passes over our Lbs and our safteys are trailing in some manner with out Allen on D. What was the impact of Cassel? He did have a seat and let Brodie prove he may be a good backup.
Dont get me wrong I'm a fan but with the economy and work the last thing I wanna do on usually my only day off is watch my team make dumbass plays and see inferior talent get their ass handed to them 14 to 12 times a year.
This team needs to wake the f$$$ up and make me watch a game and not get pissed...no matter how they do it. Dont draft another highly ranked rookie and think turnaround.
Clark spend the $ and the fans will be there or watching nfl ticket. If not I think the fanbase could start wearing paper bags. Hell from watching the FA moves Detroit will trade with us next year in the 1st rd to move up!

**BossChief** · 03-05-2010, 06:44 PM

People still cry that we didnt try to top last years offer to Jason Brown that pays him 24 million in hte first two years and 8 million per year.

NE just signed Vince Wilfork to a contract very comparable to the one the Rams gave to Brown at 12am last year.
