That's 10 million less than I thought he would get on a 5 year deal.

4 years

I think what helped a lot was the zone blocking scheme. The other interested teams didn't run one and Winston is a guy who excels with it.

This is probably the best FA signing since Kendrell Bell!

It's a sad state of the team when you look at moves like this and think to yourself: "This is a great move, except that it's only going to make it even more likely that our shitty QB looks good enough to stay."

It remains to be seen whether the Chiefs have a center that's not a weakness. Casey Weigmann will probably not come back and that leaves the relatively untested Rodney Hudson as our center. We all hope he's up to the task, but there's no way of knowing.

It's more stupid than sad. Cassel is our QB because there is no better option out there. It seems clear that Pioli recognizes that we need an upgrade. If he could draft Andrew Luck, he would. It's just not an option.

Those aren't allowed in KC. It would show too obviously how horrible the uniforms are. If you don't have a square jaw, don't apply.

Hudson already proved he can handle guard in the NFL. Quite well.

1. Trade down, draft Konz

2. ???

3. Profit.

I don't get the whole "how sad is it that we celebrate a RT signing." bullshit.

Barry Richardson probably cost us some games the last two seasons. Signing one of the best right tackles in the league after being plagued by Richardson's play is worth celebrating. Winston might have been the difference in two games last year. At least A GAME. When your right tackle is worthy of me starting a thread over, he sucks pretty ****ing badly.

I'm glad richardson is gone and I hope he gets stabbed with a rusty aids needle.

What if that rusty aids needle is too rusty to break the skin?
