ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports that free agent WR Jeremy Maclin plans to reunite with Andy Reid in Kansas City once free agent market opens Tuesday.

 

Mortensen adds that the Chiefs will need to clear cap space, which can be done by releasing WR Dwayne Bowe.

 

Charles Robinson confirms that the Chiefs are close to locking Maclin up, but adds that it’s not a done deal.

Numerous reports in recent days have said that Maclin was likely to return to the Eagles, as they were reportedly pushing to get him under contract.

However, it appears as though the Chiefs made him an offer he can’t refuse.

 

Maclin, 26, missed the entire 2013 season after he suffered a torn ACL. The Eagles later signed him to a one-year contract worth $5.5 million, even though they were reportedly interested in giving him a multi-year agreement.

 

In 2014, he caught 85 passes for 1,318 yards receiving and 10 touchdowns over the course of 16 games.Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 14 receiver out of 110

We weren't in the running for Maclin anyways. The way I look at it... The Chiefs just got a stud WR and will be less likely to take one in the first round ahead of us. The chances of us having Jaelen Strong available at 25 just went up a considerable amount. They could still select one for all I know, but this signing helps our chances.

The chances are still there. There's a reason the WRs didn't have a single reciving touchdown last season Their WR core sucks.

 

There'll be nothing behind Maclin in KC.

Same with the Niners getting Torrey. Even though I've been screaming WR since the beginning of time, Cobb, Smith and Maclin all didn't interest me, especially with the contracts they're getting.

But you'll have to sell me on Strong...

@RapSheet: The #Chiefs were planning on releasing Dwayne Bowe anyway, but they’ll need to for cap room. He’ll be another accomplished WR out there.

If he came cheap I'd be all for it

He's slow and not good.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By TD alt · Posted

      Two things: 1. Dr. Eric Eager is central to the draft process 2. I know that it was edited, but we didn't hear "Thieneman" one time, not even before the Vikings pick.

      Why would he sign here as a guard when surely someone would sign him as a tackle?  Assuming he is healthy

      Went back to watching the highlights. With a sober mind haha. Here is what I saw.    freddie needs to make 1 of those but the rest aren’t on him.    Slavin was BBBBAAAD again last night. Not sure what is going on with these game one Slavin gafs.    miller was ok but had his worst game in the playoffs so far.    nikishin was no good. His his awful turnover led to the first goal at the end of the first period that just can’t happen. ghost was beat like a drum multiple times last night, including the go-ahead goal at the end jarivs wont shoot. He is either hurt or he is struggling mentally and I think it could be a combination of both. He passed up a wide open net on the power-play only to pass it to no one and cleared it himself.     Svech played well. He is getting zero help on that line.    aho. Worst game as a pro. I mean that. He won’t shoot it, passes go to no one and turns it over repeatedly.  He did exactly what they did against Montreal game one when Miller had a turnover. Aho left his man to go help and left the golden Knight player wide open in front of Freddie.  If I was Rod, you Tell Aho when that thing hits your stick you fire it  someone needs to sit him down just him in a room and ask what’s going on. He seems soft, timid and has zero fire.   canes could have won that game   There isn’t a gap between these two teams  they are dead even   Carter Hart’s gonna get lit up in this series. We can beat that guy. the consensus last night was our defense played horrible and our stars won’t score.  clean the defense up. Tell the top line to shoot it everything and we’ll win tomorrow night.   Possibly convincingly.
