Free Agents for KC

[Fansincebirth]

I have seen alot of talk about going out and getting some Free Agents to fill holes. That we have such a low salery compared to other teams, which is true because we are such a young team, and should spend money on Free Agents. I don't see that there will be much there for the taking. My question is: Who do you think will not resign with current team that would be worth going after? Thanks

That would give us at o-line:
Okung/Waters/pouncey/Mankins/Albert

3)WR??
Breaston
What does anyone think of Josh Reed??
Vincent Jackson
Ben watson could help the offense

4)RB...need short yardage guy
Lendale White

Yes, Peppers is tempting i don't think he'ld sign with us
Wants togo to a contender for a ring

What about Shawn Merriman?

Karlos Dansby would help a weak LBing group(i like Thomas Davis.....could be a hugh signing for a far price)

I believe Wilfork is the key signing
remember Casey Hampton is a free agent also

WR is desperate need?

Everyone you mentioned as FA are RFA. Which means we would have to give up draft choices to get them. That will not happen. It will be slim pickings for FA for the Chiefs.

I want Donte Stallworth RIGHT NOW. He was reinstated today and promptly cut by the Browns. The guy didn't do anything sleezy. After the incident, he's done EVERYTHING right. This has changed his life and he's learned from his mistakes. I think there's a BIG difference between Stallworth who accidentally killed a man crossing the street while driving drunk, and a guy like Plaxico Burress who never showed remorse.

Stallworth would be a great addition to this team. For all those who don't want him here because of what happened, would you still feel the same way if it were Jared Allen who was stopped more than once driving while intoxicated. Stallworth's ramifications were much more severe, but the crime was the same.

I think he would be able to come in and help the Chiefs. Bottom line right now this team could use anyone that can catch the ball and he can catch the ball.

As for his little deal. He up. Hes human and made a mistake. He did not try to deny it he fessed up and I heard a story once on espn that even the family of the person that he killed are now friends. He showed that he is a good person who just messed up. The browns let him go becuse he did this while on there team it it did cause some dirt on there team. I understand that. He Wont do that again hes not allowed to drive. I think he would be a good option for this team even with what he did.

I think for a couple of those names it would defently be worth the pick to pick them up. I dont think it will happen but if they could get peppers a proven player I would not mind giveing up a draft pick whos done nothing in the NFL.

Personally, I think driving while drunk is horrible. Ive seen the consequences too many times. If he has really changed his life (i.e. doesnt drink at all anymore, and has a whole new attitude) I would consider him only if he would come cheap.

Also I have gone on record a few times saying how I am quite happy without Jared Allen on our team because of his behavior.

Donte Stallworth hasn't been remotely productive in the NFL since 2007, and has only had 1 really good season in his career. I'm not a fan.

[DC_Chiefsfan]

Stallworth's last three years: He was productive with the Pats. He was unproductive with the browns, then didn't play. Pats=Tom Brady, Browns, Derek Anderson/Brady Quinn. Hmmm, I wonder why he wasn't productive?!

If we were to sign Stallworth, it couldn't be for higher than like a 4th WR. There is some upside there, but he would have to prove it. The guy has been out of the league for a year so it's a risky acquisition.

[MDChiefs!]

Im sure his billions of injuries has run their toll on the only thing he ever had going for him...his speed. not productive enough for a roster spot. no thank you

I wouldn't be against giving him a shot.

DUI is not a malicious crime. It's just that the end result can be horrible.
