I mean Tardiff and Chris Harris Jr signed the EXACT SAME contract, Harris is arguably the best corner in the league and Tardiff is probably the 15th-20th best GUARD in the NFL. :-)
Dorsey's cap management/contract negotiation skills are embarrassing :-)
Chris Harris isn't arguably the best corner in the league. [Reply]

One or maybe both of those guys will be around in the mid to late first round. I really think Dorsey will pull the trigger on a QB early in this coming draft, fully aware that Smith will be the starting going into 2017 with the QBOTF is being groomed as his replacement.
Smith has been given his chance. There's no shame in drafting a guy that will push him to either be better, or to exit stage left. When Smith was brought into KC, Reid and Dorsey said "you're the man" and they have lived up to that promise. Now they have a legit reason to draft a young QB because, for whatever reason, Smith has not elevated the team to a SB contender, even though, yes, your team has the talent to compete in the playoffs.

Tardif was one of the best pass blocking G's in the league last season. He was just as good as TJ Lang.
He also won't be a top 10 paid G due to small cap hits the first 2 years and inflation by year 3 pushing him down the paychart. 3 G's will get paid more than him in 1 week.

Damn near everything they do is a failure, so I'm not surprised. [Reply]

But I'm sure Knowmo knew that
You can't compare player salaries at different positions... hell, what was the number that was shown last week--- Matt Cassel has earned in excess of $60M in the NFL while Jamaal Charles just over $30M. [Reply]

And, for that matter, do they do anything to commemorate your departure on Chiefs Planet? Like, "Welcome to the Fourth Annual 'BlackOp is done watching the NFL - this time, it's for real' celebration?" I was hoping I could still score a commemorative lapel pin, or something.
Dont project that I've somehow changed by stance..I haven't. The NFL is a corrupt piece of unadulterated shit. I wont be watching this soul-deadening theater anymore...it's lowest common denominator programming.
I dont expect you to understand...blindly wear your homo-erotic worship jersey, waste your cash...and stay asleep. Your opinion sounds like fractured static... [Reply]

Just walk away. Be the big man that you are, find a new hobby and walk away. [Reply]

"Do-Right Rule" should help Broncos pursuit of Romo
If it matters, and apparently it does, a deal between Tony Romo and the Denver Broncos would satisfy the “Do-Right Rule” that has been stated, along with a wink-wink, by Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
Multiple NFL sources tell 9News Broncos general manager John Elway and the team are ready to pursue Romo if and when the quarterback is released by Jones and the Dallas Cowboys.
One agent source also told 9News that Romo’s preferred choice is the Broncos. Denver is not the only team expected to pursue Romo, though. There was buzz at the NFL Combine the Houston Texans would also be interested, but would they give up on Brock Osweiler after paying him $21 million in 2016, his first year with the team, and another $16 million guaranteed this season?
And would Houston be in violation of Jones’ “Do-Right Rule” as the Cowboy and Texans’ franchises wade in some of the same State of Texas revenue streams?
Any Broncos’ deal with Romo would figure to include conditions that would protect the team against injury.
For instance, the Broncos could offer Romo a multiyear deal worth between $8 million to 10 million a year, but incentives and escalators based on playing time, performance and team success could move his earnings beyond a $15 million annual average.
When the Broncos signed Peyton Manning to a five-year, $96 million contract in 2012 as the quarterback was 36 years old and coming off a neck injury, only the first year and $18 million was guaranteed. The next two years at $20 million each became guaranteed only after Manning passed a neck exam.
It’s possible Romo could receive similar contract provisions with his collarbone and back.
The Broncos want to at least explore whether the risk is worth taking because when healthy, Romo has been considered one of the league’s top 10 quarterbacks. In fact, his 97.1 career passer rating ranks third all-time – behind only Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady -- among quarterbacks who have played in at least 100 games.
If the Broncos were to acquire Romo, Elway figures to almost instantly receive trade requests for Siemian, starting with the San Francisco 49ers. New 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan communicated during his head coach interview with the Broncos he was impressed with Siemian, who is scheduled to make a ridiculously affordable $615,000 this season and $705,000 in 2018 as part of his rookie contract.
