it would be great to see the chiefies do this, but only if they can get players like priest holmes, or even lionel dalton...

If we win a superbowl this year we could go 1-42 afterwards and I'd still be ****ing glowing...
Gor for it all. Spend whatever is necessary for TALENTED FA's we think can help.

I agree, Brad.
I don't want them to spend it all on one guy or two, but spread it out, but still be pretty high on the signing bonus, that way they WILL sign with us. Players could give a crap about the salary, they want that signing bonus. Lamar is gonna be gone soon he can't take all that money with him. His family will have PLENTY left over when he sadly passes, no matter what, and the Chiefs will still be here. I want at least one Super Bowl victory before I call I hit the coffin lol

I want a change, from Carl Peterson on down. I also realize that such a change likely means losing seasons. Let's win a Super Bowl and then clean house. |

I agree w/Gretz. We will be in rebuilding mode in 2006 no matter what happens in 2005. DV already said he's retiring after 2005. CP is strongly hinting at it and Lamar is hinting about turning the team over to Clark.

I am convinced that going after the highest priced free agents makes a team worse. You tie up big money in one guy who has already had some time in the limelight, so his days are numbered. You then cannot afford to hit other weak spots on your team. I look more towards the model of the Patriots and Steelers. They go after good players that will not break the bank. They stay within a sane fiscal structure and it keeps them where they need to be. I look at a team like the Colts who are going to blow big money on several players, yet leave huge holes in their team. They will never get over the hump. When they crash, it could be very hard.

Yep.
Gretz is right, as far as I'm concerned on THIS one....

I disagree with you Go

Of course if we win a S.B. ... I can put up with 5 or 6 years of rebuilding (it will probably take longer than that for me to come back to earth) ... but, if Kingless, Gun, and D.V. do all they can to fix the D and it doesn't work I'll be satisfied. Yes, I'll be unhappy but knowing they tried will consol me, even if we have to go into a rebuilding mode because of a shot cap. But, Yesssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!! I must say this in fairness... Most of the time I don't like reading Bob Gretz, but I agree 100% with him on this. I sure hope he is a mouth piece for the F.O.on this issue. Because, if the F.O. does it's usual just patch things up bit routine ... then it will be a half dozen years before we start winning again anyway. I say that because D.V. will be gone, most of the O will be gone, and I hope Kingless will go ... So, after this year it is likely to be rather bleak around Chiefdom!!!!! |

With who we have on offense now, I agree, we are not getting young very quick.
But in reality, wouldn't be nice to have a team built along the lines of New Englands, you know a front office followed by a defense that can stop teams from scoring.
