Wherever he wants. Can you imagine balt taking liberties with Ben, Suh would step knock flacco the fuck out in retaliation and I would love it.

Landing one of these CB's would be nice............
I like Donnell................gives us a large athletic TE (red zone target).............since i do not think we can afford or will draft one early.............
can always go TE early in 2016.

I would rather add one impact FA....or two second tier FA's..................

Land a impact OLB or CB.............to make the draft decision a little easier..........

I'd like to hear your comments if you have any. I think both might be fits in Pittsburgh.


Both of those guys are likely headed to Washington, since the new GM there will probably make a play for them, with real money.

I didn't think about it until reading Fittipaldo's chat today, but finding a backup for Bell is paramount.

He is likely to be suspended for a couple of games next year for the pot issue.

True about Bell and a few game suspension

He's already on the roster. Or was on the roster. I expect they re-sign Tate.

What do we think of Searcy as a FA safety prospect?

Though Searcy’s snap count in 2014 is surprisingly down from 2013, the role he played this season has been more valuable. With the departure of safety Jarius Byrd, Buffalo was in need of secondary help so Aaron Williams filled Byrd’s free safety spot and Searcy became a full-time cover guy as the strong safety rather than the hybrid safety/linebacker position he had held previously.

What are your thoughts on TE Clay from Miami and OLB Reed from Houston?

Tamba Hali again says he wants to remain a Chief http://www.kansascity.com/sports/spt-co ... 60971.html


Might be crossing Hali's name off the potential FA list.

Hali or Houston will hit the free agent market. They can't afford to keep both and they just drafted an OLB in the 1st round last year. I think they franchise or sign Houston and cut Hali.

I think Houston is higher on the list in KC. Younger, more productive player over the older vet nearing the end of a career.

The KC press is questioning whether Hali will play another game in the NFL with his knee injury. I'm sure he will be released by the Chiefs. the question is wheter he can pass a physical.

no reason not to give him a shot, injury or not. He's playing the Pro Bowl..if that means anything. If he wasn't able to play, he probably wouldnt have made the trip..i know it's pretty much like playing patty cake that game, but there is some physical element and wear and tear to it.

Seems like dude is dedicated about staying though..or so he says
