Chiefs trade (Arenas) for...wait for it...a FB?

[ct]

Chiefs acquired FB Anthony Sherman from the Chiefs...er Cardinals.
New Cards head coach Bruce Arians has no room for plodding fullbacks in his aggressive, vertical offense. So Sherman heads to Andy Reid's West Coast scheme as Jamaal Charles' lead blocker. The 2011 fifth-rounder graded out 20th among 25 qualifying fullbacks in Pro Football Focus' rankings last season. May 1 - 12:11 PM

WTF?

so yes, sounds about right

Didn't Smith have a better year last year then Carr?

Boy, It's a shame we cut Studebaker. We could have traded him to Arizona and gotten Javier back.

i think you are giving this FO way more credit than they should be getting. I hope you are right, but I think these idiots are dumb enough to pay him that.

If they cut him after this year, they will sign or draft a cb next year.

No that's impossible. He's horrible.

The issue people have with this trade, is in the heiarchy of obscure/limited positions in football, the Fb is right there with a longsnapper. Compared to a CB, who plays consistently on every defensive snap, just don't see the value regardless of how tall said corner is.

THIS

is all we're sayin here...

[mcaj22]

the issue I have is the value of a hall of fame TE for a ****ing FB

and you wonder why this team will never win anything

No, that is not the issue people are having with this trade. Read the thread.

The reason others don't care is that arenas is no good and wasnt making the team anyway

We also just sort of used a 6th round pick on one as well.

So arenas should be kept around just because we traded tony for his pick?
