To the canoe!

Why? Dude is mediocre at best. They wanted vet depth?

In 8 career starts in three years he has 56 tackles and 1 sack, and 53 of those tackles came in one year. He's listed as in Inside 'backer. Why did we sign him?

Brian Parker got claimed(by the Jets who just cut high pick Jace Amaro), man teams must love our TE depth

Because without Mauga, they no longer had a slow as **** LB so they had to sign Barrington who clocked in at 4.95 in the 40. SMH

Sam Barrington was a decent starter for a few games in GB. Nice backup option, but not sure why we need him with the depth we have?

It was arguably a stronger position group than the RB core.

Question is, who did we cut to make room for these guys?

Can't be true. I got slammed on CP for saying the Chiefs have one of the best TE groups in the NFL.

Didn't someone wanted Jace Amaro on the team when he got drafted. I thought he was going to be good then he just got injured to many times.
