Re: 2013 Free Agents

I'd guess it was more of a scheme fit than anything in KC. Winston is a legit RT.

Re: 2013 Free Agents

Winston would have been great last year. This year, only if he makes sense. He is 29 and will be 30 in November. I know OLinemen generally hold up better into their 30's and EW would be a huge upgrade. Given our cap issues and his age, I am betting we spend our money on someone a year or two younger or grab someone in the draft.

If we can get him for a reasonable 3 year contract - great. I just don't see it happening.

There is your answer right there. Winston excels in the ZBS when it comes to run blocking. I was about to say that Andy Reid is against the ZBS, but that is factually incorrect. Andy Reid is against running the ball.

Btw, am I the only one who believes that Andy Reid is going to go down with the sinking ship because his best player is a RB. Charles better love screen passes, because he wont rush that much this year unless Reid learned that having a running game is actually a good thing. And its difficult to have a good running game when the guy calling the plays judges success not on wins and losses, but whether his QB passes it 50 times a game.

I don't think you very funny, mister. Can't hurt right? Besides, he saw the tweet when we were on the 10th hole and said you'd have to wait because he was having too much fun. Sorry….

Re: 2013 Free Agents

Skinzman, you say Charles is their best player. Are you forgetting about Bowe and Alex Smith? Smith is probably the most underrated QB in the history of the game. The Chiefs definitely upped the 49ers on that trade.

Re: 2013 Free Agents

J. Charles will do fine in Andy's system. He is not a pounder who gets the majority of his yards between the tackles. He is more of a breakaway threat and Reid's system will let him operate in space more. I think - if he remains healthy - Charles is in for a big year next season.

No I dont consider Alex Smith to be better than Charles. Bowe you may have a case for, but Alex Smith? Alex Smith is also not the most underrated QB in history. He was a number 1 overall who has been outplayed his entire career by other QB's drafted that same year. How is that underrated? He is a game manager that has yet to show that he can put a team on his shoulders other than a rare game or two.

To have success in that system, wouldnt he need to carry the ball more than 10 times a game? Charles better hope Reid developed an understanding of the run game after being fired by Philly, or Charles better love getting his production on screen passes.

@ericwinston We're about to find out if you want the money or a super bowl. You want the ring? Go to DC and protect RG3.

In everyone's opinions, which would be worse, Winston to Philly or Dallas?

Dallas.

Only teams so far according to PFT to talk to Winston are Houston (makes sense) and Philly. Last year Miami called. Dallas may call. We Better call (again)

Winston doesn't make sense for us for a couple of reasons:

1) primarily salary, we are not in a position to pay top 5 money to a RT right now.

2) although Polumbus was less than stellar, we succeeded in having a successful attack to all parts of the field.

3) at 30, while not old, he isn't "young" either, and this draft will have RT's to develop.

4) speaking of developing, we have brought in several OL, and MS is big on OL stability. Bringing in a high to overpaid star power player, regardless of his ability, doesn't add to the cohesive group mentality MS creates

5) personally, the whole we gotta get player x, is the leftover mentality from the bad days. If we bring him in at a reasonable deal, great, but that won't happen, because he isn't looking for a reasonable deal. He wants the dollars. No fault on him, just saying that we don't do business that way anymore.

Agreed. I expect J.Charles to have a career year catching the ball as he becomes KC's version of Brian Westbrook.
