    Post ChiefsCrowd.com Article : Pioli Adds Two Winners

    I have to admit, I was very surprised when I heard that the Chiefs were getting Mike Vrabel from the Patriots. The one thing that I think Herm Edwards did wrong was that he got rid of too many veterans, or at least passed on getting some veteran leaders to show all the young guys how it’s done. So when I saw Vrabel had been traded for, I thought that is a great pickup. He may be at the end of the line but he will bring an attitude, a winning attitude, to the locker room. Plus he has the...

    Great article Coach. I agree with everything you've said. Any time you can improve two positions with one trade you"ve done well.
    The other area were this could have been accomplished is by picking up a center, then moving Niswanger to RG and improving our OL greatly. It's been frustrating watching the top centers move to other teams. By not picking up a center we are almost forced into taking an OT with #3. I'm not against that, but would rather have drafted Curry.

    Great article, except that we need Crabtree, and pick up some more veta for o-line and DE.

    PBA, couldn't agree more with your thoughts. I think what the Chiefs have needed all along is a good balance of Vets (who know how to win and have gas in the tank) and promising Rook's who can give you 4 to 6 good years.

    Later! Jowen
