Football THE COUNTDOWN to the NFL TRADE DEADLINE THREAD - Tues. Oct. 29th @ 4:00p Eastern Time - Page 52

arrowheadnation · 10-08-2019, 10:18 AM

I figured I would create one location to house all of the breaking news, rumors, pessimism, despair, helplessness, frustration, and of course optimism leading up to the 2019 NFL Trade Deadline on:

Tuesday, October 29th @ 4:00p Eastern Time

3 weeks from today! We all have ideas of what the Chiefs need so I won't go into that, but hopefully this day will come and go with better results than last year for us.

I’m not sure there’s a move available for KC to make that truly makes sense in the short and long term.

I don’t see us getting any player that makes the difference when it comes to winning or losing at NE.

Sorenson is turrible.

Chiefs need a legit Mike. One that plays downhill, can flow to hit the gaps and sheds blockers.
The difference between a top LBr and meh is their read reaction time. We're talking about maybe a second difference, but that's the critical second that turns 3-5 yard runs into little or no gain, and 18+ yard runs into 15 or less.
Adding a D lineman will be marginal at best compared with getting a LB who has the lateral quickness to play sideline to sideline. There's a reason why LB is traditionally the position that racks up the most tackles, and I've always firmly believed that your line clogs and holds the point of engaging the blockers for the LBrs to flow to fill the gaps and attack at the point & make the stop. Almost 80% of long runs are when the oline can get a 2nd level block or the LBr gets washed out.

Guys like Seau, Brooks had ridiculously quick read & reaction time, and that meant they rarely got caught flat footed or gave ground biting on the fake.

I'd also like them to look at adding an OLB - namely one that can drop into coverage & cover RBs the outlets & underneath in zone or in man even if it requires a hybrid with help over the top.

Veach needs to draft a solid LB with our first round pick. CB is deep this year

there's got to be a LB out there with a pulse. That would be an improvement over Neimann.

Someone to cover White, Burkhead and Michel would be nice.

Lol NFL Teams are not lining up to trade players like that

With #Jets DL Leonard Williams headed to the #Giants, both teams are hoping for more. NYJ continues to shop WR Robby Anderson, while NYG has shopped and is open to dealing Janoris Jenkins, Alec Ogletree and maybe Nate Solder.

I’d see what it would take to get McMillian but I don’t see the Dolphins wanting to trade him.

Sassy Squatch · 10-28-2019, 10:40 AM

If we aren't working the trade market for a LB, could Veach at least pretend to care about the absolute dearth of talent at LB and bring in guys like Brown, Marshall, and Foster to try out? Please? Niemann and Lee ****ing suck and you aren't even giving O'Daniel a chance, so there's 3 slots right ****ing there.

Mecca · 10-28-2019, 10:40 AM

The Giants are remaking their team, can't say I blame them, they're about to really not have any big contracts on the roster.

Hitchens makes to much money for them to ever admit they ****ed up...the other guys just aren't good yet, they seem very determined to refuse to admit how bad the position is.

Then you sign him in 5 months and save a 3rd round pick

McMillan has a PFF score of 70.4 and is rated as lock solid vs the pass. DO IT VEACH!!
