What has Gregory proven, exactly? Zilch. Other than that he's injury prone.
Clark wasn't great last year, but at least he's proven that he can be, when healthy and fit. It's not like he's old.
You have no clue about what Karlaftis will do. Of course you're going to predict disappointment. And you'll probably be wrong per usual.
When talking about the Chiefs' pass rush, you might not want to forget about Chris Jones and Dunlap. [Reply]

Bustly chubb can't even trot onto the field without suffering a season ending injury [Reply]
Also, the Dammit Karl nickname he has is cute. I would, however, warn him that the last time he created a cute nickname for one of our 1st round rookies, that guy rattled off 9 wins and 0 losses against the Broncos. And I'm pretty sure no other QB has more wins against a single team in that span than that "pick machine" does against the Broncos. [Reply]
I’m only tangentially interested in the social-media noise on all things NFL, but one thing I’ve noticed is the drumbeat of Mahomes’ contract looks bad. Too many players are jumping over it. He should be unhappy.
“Do you hear that stuff?” I asked. “What do you think?”
“If you’re ticked off making all the money that I’m making, you’re probably a little bit messed up. I know I’m going to be taken care of for the rest of my life. Being in this organization and being on the platform that the NFL has given me, I’ve been able to make money off the field as well. If you watch some of the great quarterbacks, man, it’s not always about getting the most money. It’s about going out there and winning and having a legacy that you can kind of live with forever. For me, that’s what I want. Obviously, I want to make money and be able to buy everything I want and all that different type of stuff, but that’s not the reason I started playing football. The reason I started playing football was to win Super Bowls, to enjoy these relationships that I’m building on this field with all my friends who are my teammates. I think at the end of the day if I do that, I’ll be a happy guy in the end.”
Meanwhile, in Denver, a soon to be 34 yr old midget with declining athleticism who hasn't accomplished anything in several years wants 5 yrs/300 million guaranteed. :-) [Reply]
