Chiefs Rumor: Chiefs trying to trade DJ and DaJuan Morgan possibly Albert

The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday at 4 PM Eastern time and the rumors are going to be swirling for the next 48 hour or so.
This report come from Mike Lombardi at the National Football Post, who has consistently delivered solid insider info from Arrowhead. He was very close on early reports about Matt Cassel's contract.

I do want to stress that this is a rumor. From Lombardi:
The Chiefs are trying to move former 2005 first-round linebacker Derrick Johnson and 2008 third-round safety DeJuan Morgan.
Todd Haley and Co. are making no secret about their unhappiness with the players they inherited from the previous regime.
I’m hearing they don’t like anyone, including Branden Albert, who they feel is not a left tackle.

Strong words from Lombardi as we near the trade deadline. I do believe Lombardi is correct in his comments about the Kansas City Chiefs and their intentions for those players. At least in the sense that there are a lot of Chiefs players who could possibly be moved for the right price. Jay Glazer said earlier today that the Chiefs are open to trading any player except for Matt Cassel.

Back in August, we caught wind of a rumor that Scott Pioli offered the Detroit Lions DaJuan Morgan for a 4th round pick. The Lions didn't bite, possibly giving us a glimpse into what Morgan may be worth on the open market.

The question is - Will any other team bite on either DJ, DaJuan Morgan or Branden Albert?

Yeah, like the bullshit claim that Cassel had signed a long-term deal on draft day, negating any leverage we had in trading down?

Im all for keeping Albert and using his a guard for the rest of his career. I dont give a shit, I just want to have a dominant OL again, and if that means using him as LG since it appears Waters is done, well then lets ****ing do that.

Wasn't he right on this especially on the numbers?

Cassel signed in July.

I know he signed in July but the numbers he reported on were correct which means they probably had a verbal deal

One, who gives a shit? He reported something erroneously that cost us on draft day.

Two, there are no such things as verbal agreements in the NFL.

What happens when he suffers a career-ending injury between April and July?

Think the Chiefs would still give him $63M?

Lombardi's numbers weren't accurate. He had Cassel getting $36M guaranteed.

The whole story was a total fail on his part.

Why in the **** would they be willing to trade Albert?

This is dumb
