Chiefs are reeeeaaaching again...

ChargerMike · Post by **ChargerMike** » Wed Jun 22, 2005 8:04 pm

4 CB's with uhh..129 years experience..cough cough!

in other words...the Chiefs are concerned about their current crop of Corners, and are desperate to see if any of these 4 over the hill guys can step in and spell relief...bwahaha

Four cornerbacks are due for a visit

The Chiefs moved to address their depth at cornerback by arranging visits with veterans Dewayne Washington, Aaron Beasley, Ashley Ambrose and Terrance Shaw.

All were scheduled to be at Arrowhead Stadium on Thursday.

Absent from the list is Ty Law, who first met with the Chiefs in March. The Chiefs have maintained a discussion with Law’s agent but have yet to schedule a follow-up visit to inspect the progress of his surgically repaired foot.

Cornerback depth became a concern for the Chiefs last weekend when they lost Julian Battle for the season with a torn Achilles’ tendon. The Chiefs also anticipate losing starter Eric Warfield for at least part of the season because of an NFL suspension.

Their other cornerbacks are veterans Patrick Surtain, Dexter McCleon and Benny Sapp, and rookies Alphonso Hodge, Justin Perkins and Gabriel Helms.

A look at the four scheduled visitors:

■ Washington, 32 and an 11-year veteran with Minnesota, Pittsburgh and Jacksonville, was the only one of the group to be a full-time starter last season. He had two interceptions last year in his only season with the Jaguars.

■ Beasley, 31, played nine seasons with Jacksonville, the New York Jets and Atlanta. He was a starter for most of his career until last year, when he was a reserve in his only season with the Falcons.

■ Ambrose, 34, played 13 seasons with Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Atlanta and New Orleans. A Pro Bowler in 1996 with the Bengals, Ambrose started six games for the Saints last season. He missed seven games because of a sore knee.

■ Shaw, 32, is a 10-year veteran with San Diego, Miami, New England, Oakland and Minnesota. He has been a part-time starter for the last several years, including last year with the Vikings.

They are concerned because Warfield will most likely serve a 4 game suspension. Julian Battle also tore his achilles tendon and is out for the season. So they will be missing two cb's for at least 4 games this season. There obviously isn't much out there right now cb wise.

What should they do? Nothing? They must make due with what is available. They will most likely be nothing more than a 1 year deal at veteran's minimum anyways. Just a little insurance, not a reach.

I think we can survive for the 4 games that Warfield will be suspended, regardless.

Just as long as I never see William Burntee in a Chief's uni again, that is.

Finally there's a secondary that more jacked up than ours.

If the linebacking corps steps it up, they won't have to worry much about cornerbacks.

MLB,imo, is the biggest concern-btw.

Time will certainly tell with Bell.

Hey, that rhymed.

But seriously, get used to 8 games a season from Bell.

Give me a fucking break, Greiffan........Lets be honest here, are you guys really gripping over losing a few corners who go hypercolor, turn blacker and end up as a set of teeth and eyeballs as a night game goes on from being burnt so fucking bad?

Jenna jameson's chin intercepts more balls in a day than your sorry secondary does in a year.....

rack! Bell was explosive, but when he returned from injury he seemed a bit slower. Also, he's definitely not the kind of player that lives with his nose in the playbook. I don't see success for a team that trys to use him as an MLB in a 4-3.
