A press conference for these scrubs?

FloridaMan88 · 03-17-2009, 03:26 PM

If the Chiefs are going to sign an old WR why not make a play for Torry Holt?

EyePod · 03-17-2009, 03:27 PM

Bobby Engram had a great season last year, and then Seattle blew this season (and it wasn't his fault). He's still got some talent.

I'm guessing his price was too high? St. Louis cut him for a reason....

Molitoth · 03-17-2009, 03:27 PM

I don't recall many peeps wanting Kennison at the time either...

Old scrubs can sometimes be useful.

47 for 489 and no TDs with 3 games missed is a great year?

Shaun MacDonald or Brandon Lloyd would have been better.
