Brandon Flowers done
















Quote:
Chiefs released CB Brandon Flowers.
Flowers' performance and usefulness in Kansas City slipped dramatically under new DC Bob Sutton last season, as a press-man scheme was installed in the secondary and Flowers failed to find a fit. He wound up mostly at slot corner, and was beaten relentlessly. The Chiefs were trying to trade Flowers, but found no takers for his contract. Flowers had some of the best years of his career under now-Texans DC Romeo Crennel, and cornerback depth is needed in Houston. We wouldn't be surprised to see them reunite. Flowers turned 28 in February.

Jun 13 - 3:04 PM
Quote:
Chargers agreed to terms with CB Brandon Flowers on a one-year contract.
The deal is worth "up to" $5 million and contains $3 million in total guarantees. Despite an anemic 2013 season as a misfit in Bob Sutton's press-man scheme, Flowers found a full bushel of suitors after the Chiefs released him 11 days ago. He lands in a spot where he can immediately rehab his value as a starting corner and then hit the open market again at age 29. Flowers put plenty of really good tape together from 2008-12, and will add borderline Pro Bowl shadow ability to a pass defense that ranked 29th in the league last year. With first-round corner Jason Verrett also added to incumbents Shareece Wright and Richard Marshall, this won't be quite the unit to pick on that it was last season.
He's a Charger now.

Its more about the fact that there is nothing behind him. Zilch.

He has one bad year after a great career and all of a sudden your so quick to call him washed up?

If the Chiefs had a capable corner it wouldnt be a big deal. Right now all they have is hope.

Yup, I think that anyone who paid any attention to our cap situation and the actual play of our players expected something like this to happen either this off-season or the next.

Hali will be next if he doesn't get double digit sacks this season or if he has a noticeable decrease in quality of play. I think he still has a couple of effective years left in him because he never depended on elite athleticism anyways, but the team might feel differently with Ford in the fold.

Our secondary was horrific last year, and we are worried that it might get worse?

It's all about pass rush and slowing receivers off the line. That's it. I like Flowers, but this is hardly worth giving a **** about.

Yeah, don't look at the whole body of work.

I've told people for months now that this is the reality of the situation. I still believe that Smith is a stop-gap( and his agent will more than likely make it a reality ). My belief is that the acquisition of Smith coupled with 9 pro bowlers and an easy schedule was the first and last shot for the Herm draftees, and I'm sticking by it. We're moving on.

They'll tag Smith and draft a QB next year.

They save $7.5M by cutting him. Would have only saved $3.5M by trading him, apparently.

He played some good ball for us and I think injuries more than age contributed to his poor showing last year. I'm not happy to see him gone, but I understand the move and wish him well wherever he ends up.

Cooper should be improved with the growth that he showed after his mid-season thrashing.

Parker has been pretty good in limited snaps.

Owens is a vet slot guy.

We play our safeties more than we do our corners anyways. You're more likely to see the combo of:

Cooper, Smith, and Parker along with Abdullah, Berry, and Commings.

than you will the combo of:

Cooper, Smith, Parker, and Owens/Gaines along with Abdullah and Berry.

So if we saved 15 mil over the next two years, why couldn't we have signed Albert?

One team with a good secondary beats Manning in the SB (groundbreaking) and that's the new Formula?

Look at the list of champions the last 10 years that had a great secondary and get back to me.
