Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

I'm wondering what Cassel is looking for. I'd take him as Drew's backup for a year while we draft a quarterback in the later rounds to develop.

Other names to consider: Drew Stanton, Tavaris Jackson, Derek Anderson, Tyler Thigpen, Sage Rosenfels

I'm a Tyler Wilson fan and if he's there with a mid round pick by any chance(highly doubt it), I'd be interested. Landry Jones, Zac Dysert, and Sean Renfree would make some solid late round options.

Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

how old is Thigpen?

He kind of intrigued me 2-3 years back when he was in KC.

Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

Still only 28.

Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

yeah.... guess his days are really numbered in KC... might be too many $.

Jarrett Lee maybe? lol


Fitzpatrick got released as well... he's a Harvard grad.

Good Luck Chase.

I get what you mean, but I think the benefit of signing somebody important from a nemesis divisional team is that (back up to a hypothetical Chase in Tampa Bay for a second), the guy from the former team, can help to give you those tendencies and information, without you having to watch the 11 zillion hours of film. Which frees up 11 zillion hours of coaching time for something else, which has gotta help.

Fujita with the Browns, those sacks and interceptions -- no question in my mind something was going on. All the crazy stuff they did with special teams in that game, could easily have come from the Cleveland coaches having more time to look in depth at that stuff, because Fujita was helping the defensive side of the ball, giving the defense pointers and coaching them up. Having "help" on D is one potential explanation for the full-frontal punch in the mouth the Browns gave us.


Also one that I'll never forget, in the 1st Giants game with Shockey as a Saint, in 2009... I forget the exact point in the game, there was a crucial Giants offensive play -- I think the Giants had an important 3rd down to convert, or something like that...there was a timeout, the Saints defense came over to the sidelines, and Shockey was suddenly in the defensive huddle with the guys, talking to the defense. I mean I saw it with my own two eyes, there it was...maybe it was just a pep talk, but here was a situational thing of down and distance, an offense he knew.... Shockey stepped in and talked to the defense, and whatever was said, they definitely stopped the Giants offense on that drive. It doesn't have to be formalized, even just a guy saying to the defense, "look out for the blah blah blah play, they are gonna run left" on the sidelines can really make a difference.

ya, Mr. Fajita was catching our signals all day long in that game. hated it at the time, but, hey, whatcha gunna' do? it's part of the game.

Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

Yep, Scott knew our defensive signals. Why we didn't change those up amazes me.

Re: Chase Daniel to Chiefs
 

I was talking about knowing the offensive signals. They stuffed just about everything we threw at them that day. They surely had Bree's number that day. I forget how many sacks it was, but it was tuuuurible.

The Fujita influenced game plan Cleveland rained down on us in our own house.......don't want to go there again.
