I just read on NFL.com That Peter King of SI.com reported we only gave up a 2nd round draft choice. If that's true we got a deal.
i hope this trade doesnt involve tony, lj, or waters. And i feel kinda bad for thigpen. I rely wanted to see him as our staring QB
The chiefs traded a 2nd round pick, not players.
Check out CNNSI for details.
That would be the steal of the century. I'm sure there is draft pick consideration in there as well. I've got a feeling TG is involved. And I'm also hoping LJ.
TG
LJ
2009 2nd rd pick
for
Cassell
Vrabel
That would make sense. There is a reason that the details aren't public yet. It could be because they want to let Tony Gonzalez know.
This would give TG a chance to get his ring. I would be happy for him. But I will hate not having on our team. LJ on the other hand, we probably had to pay them another pick for them to consider taking him.
We'll have to wait and see.
I think you got me wrong here JM. Im excited bout this!!!
If we got those two players for a 2nd round pick, then they should start building a bronze statue of Pioli to put in front of arrowhead.
That would be interesting. Personally I still think LJ has a lot in him with a decent line, but I am starting to think we may have to sacrifice guys like him in order to build that OL. Hypothetically speaking though, I think this would be a fair trade (but I probably value LJ a lot more than most people do):
Pats: Vrabel, Cassel, their 2nd rounder
Chiefs: LJ + our 2nd rounder
So basically we trade LJ for Cassel and Vrabel, then swap 2nd rounders.
We then still have enough draft picks to build our OL. Im sure people will think that LJ isnt worth that. But I think in the end Pats will get the better of this deal because LJ will blow up behind that OL and with Moss, Welker, and Brady keeping the safeties back.
