Please Hurney, if you sign one guy, sign Brandon Carr.

I can't stress this enough we need one more CB to start opposite of Gamble. As I've stated before time and time again. This position has to be addressed this off season.

The Chiefs have signed Routt, CB let go by the Raiders. Read all about it here. What stood out to me was this.

The signing should give the Chiefs leverage with free-agent-to-be CB Brandon Carr.

Meaning? Carr will probably test the market. What teams need a CB as bad as we do?

Tampa

Detroit

Dallas

St. Louis

About the only ones that I can think of. Luckily there are several good FA CB's that are testing the market. Tampa has a high pick, which means Claiborne will be their target. (Sad Face)

Carr is 26, he's young and is a very very, very good corner. If we sign him, draft a DT with our first, get a FS in the second. I like our chances.

Thoughts?

Killerkat pretty much said what I wanted to.

Cut some people, restructure contracts, we can pick up one key free agent, maybe two. Especially if they load their money towards the end of the contract.

We're over the cap right now so restructuring/cutting probably just gets us breaking even. I'd rather just make sure we are in a healthy cap situation. The team has stated over and over again that they don't want to sign big name guys.

    • He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star 
    • I see what you did there
    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
