Brandon Flowers done
















Quote:
Chiefs released CB Brandon Flowers.
Flowers' performance and usefulness in Kansas City slipped dramatically under new DC Bob Sutton last season, as a press-man scheme was installed in the secondary and Flowers failed to find a fit. He wound up mostly at slot corner, and was beaten relentlessly. The Chiefs were trying to trade Flowers, but found no takers for his contract. Flowers had some of the best years of his career under now-Texans DC Romeo Crennel, and cornerback depth is needed in Houston. We wouldn't be surprised to see them reunite. Flowers turned 28 in February.

Quote:
Chargers agreed to terms with CB Brandon Flowers on a one-year contract.
The deal is worth "up to" $5 million and contains $3 million in total guarantees. Despite an anemic 2013 season as a misfit in Bob Sutton's press-man scheme, Flowers found a full bushel of suitors after the Chiefs released him 11 days ago. He lands in a spot where he can immediately rehab his value as a starting corner and then hit the open market again at age 29. Flowers put plenty of really good tape together from 2008-12, and will add borderline Pro Bowl shadow ability to a pass defense that ranked 29th in the league last year. With first-round corner Jason Verrett also added to incumbents Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall, this won't be quite the unit to pick on that it was last season.
He's a Charger now.

At this point I'm convinced the league is ran by knuckle dragging jagoffs with IQ's of 70. I'd almost like to see a baseball manager come into the league and use predictive analytics to create a team, just to watch them destroy some of these slightly reeruned ego maniacs with clipboards that can't grasp basic middle school statistics.

So based on the comments in this thread, there should be very few complaints when Tamba is next.

If it means we do something with the damned cap savings then yes.

Tamba Hali has been my fovorite player on this Chiefs team, but he is starting to show the wear and tear of the years in the NFL, and I'd rather move on before that decline really takes hold than to hold on too long.

That time is approaching.

That has begun to take it's toll on his body.

His prime years are behind him as a result.
I think the bucs should go after him. A team that runs a more zone oriented system could still get several quality years from him.

You are correct though. He's dinged up all the time and obviously plays hurt a lot.

If Tamba can accept a lesser contract and a lesser role as he declines, that would be ideal. I hate to lose guys like Hali... the tireless worker who sets the example for other players.

Of course that's not realistic... even as he declines someone will have enough need at pass rusher to overpay him.

Of course he should be here (imo) until we have someone on the roster who can bring comparable heat, even if it is pricy.

I would have no problem with it if they decided to treat Tamba like Baltimore did with Suggs. Sign him to an extension that keeps him here on a pretty low salary (never more than $5-6 mil in any given season). I'd also be ok if they just outright let him go if 1 key thing also happens, Ford proves that he is capable of being a good starting OLB.

I agree I think this year is it for Tamba. It would be nice if we could rework his deal to lower the cap hit and make it 2 years but Dorsey just seems like he's not real skilled at working the cap and making the contract more friendly. Or he just doesn't care.

I'd like to hear why people think he has another year, but it was ok to cut Flowers now.

I had assumed they'd both be cut after the 2014 season, unless they agreed to stay on at a drastically lower pay grade.

I can't understand why they wouldn't hold on to Flowers for one more season. That would make way more sense, even needing to extend Houston and Smith.
