NFL Network is reporting Routt has agreed to a 3 year deal with the Chiefs
I think the signing of Routtis great it puts pressure on both Carr and Bowe to sign knowing that one of them will be franchised and Bowe now knows that it is more than likely him because we have Carr's replacement so if he can get a contract at or above his tag price he will sign. I think Carr wants to try the market to see if he can get his $14 million.
I might be over thinking this?
you bring up some good points
I forgot to say that if Bowe does sign that leaves the tag for Carr a win win win for the Chiefs. They keep both of their top FA and sign a 3rd CB so they can go to the nickle and dime more.
Think about this for a sec. The Chiefs tag Carr and he stays means that we have two three #1 CBs, one of them as the nickel, and Arenas as the dime. That's one hell of a secondary. If we trade Carr, we get picks for the draft, and not chump ones.
I would, under no circumstances, just let him walk.
There is anther side. Bowe will know that they can't just keep putting the tag on him. He will at some point be able to go out and see how much he can get in the free agent market. I think he would be willing to take a tag this year is he thinks he can get more long term
TopekaRoy is my hero!
They have to re-sign either Bowe or Carr. Then we franchise the other. Best secondary in the NFL if that happens. Way to be active Chiefs!
