Chiefs Chiefs trade (Arenas) for...wait for it...a FB? - Page 13

ct · 12:57 PM

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?

Yes, but you're either a liar about seeing Robinson play, or you don't know shit about football, because he's been brutal, which is why he was available.

I'm not bagging on him as a pass rusher, just trying to remember any plays he actually made

i laugh at the hypocrisy in people now shitting on Arenas but will be homers and defend Dunta Robinson, Sean Smith and sometimes even Jalil Brown (what the hell is wrong with you people?)

besides we already have one slow nickle/safety guy from alabama on the roster... Menzie.

4 sacks, 21 passes defensed, and 2 picks in 3 seasons. The Chiefs didn't trade away gold here, but the alternative being Dunta Robinson shouldn't inspire any sense of confidence or feelings that there was a definite upgrade. Maybe Robinson can rebound, but he's been terrible for the past couple of years.

People must forget about Dunta being raped by McCluster.

I didn't say he's been good. I just said he's been better than Arenas. At what point did I talk about Robinson's play at all? If you could find that and quote me, that would be great. He's better than Arenas, as is Smith.

What are we debating here?

@GhostOfLamar: Anyone know if the Chiefs Super Bowl odds went up after landing this fullback?

Agreed, but the idea of trading him for a FB is more than a bit puzzling. They didn't have some LB depth we could have used instead???

mcaj22 · 05-01-2013, 12:20 PM

but hes not better than Arenas

hes older, hes slower, he cant cover, he has 1 leg, and he cost 5 million per.

there's a higher chance he could be Stanford Routt part II than anything close to a poor mans Brandon Carr, or whatever standard we want to set to just have a good ****ing cover guy as CB on the other side.

It's the weakest part of the defense that will get picked on in a pass happy league all game and youll be screaming at your television all season

Given that you're claiming Robinson's been better than Arenas, you're bringing Robinson's play into the discussion.

And he's been horseshit for years.
