This does make sense. Every time he’s been beat deep, he always seems to be right there.

lol and **** the Cowboys. What a trade.

I had never heard of Ward, but as soon as we made the deal I watched college tape on him and you could see the potential. Not sure what the Cowboys were thinking on this one.

They had a stacked cb room at the time like crazy amount of talent.

Maybe this is far fetched, but aren’t they supposed to be checking this type of shit when players have their physicals?

The Cowboys had a logjam of corner talent at the time. Jerruh knew Byron Jones was fast approaching the end of his deal, but he got greedy for the short term and tried to turn a profit on a lottery ticket that might not even be good. I can certainly understand that strategy-- the Chiefs in the past have attempted to hide dudes on the practice squad in the past and gotten screwed when other teams picked them up (David Irving, Bradley McDougald, etc). It would have been nice if we at least had gotten some kind of cheap compensation via trade instead of just seeing them produce elsewhere.

What doesn't make sense to me is why Jerruh chose Parker Ehinger. I mean, Ward has been such a success that we could have given the Cowboys a 3rd round pick, and at the time it would have been facepalm worthy but in the end we still probably would have come out on top of that deal. Instead, we gave up a nobody we were going to cut anyway.

Sure, it was viewed as depth for depth, but the upside Ward had? The Cowboys knew what he could have the potential to be. Were they that in love with Ehinger? The fact we were going to cut Ehinger, much less plug him in at starter, had to at least cause them to pause for a bit.

Honestly, it was kind of an epically stupid trade for the Cowboys at the time, not even with the benefit of hindsight.

That’s pretty flippin amazing, he’s automatically now a much better player

I love this guy. Looking forward to seeing what he can do with eyes.

Extend him, Rhett Beach!1

Hay guise remember when Bryce Harper got lasik and was supposed to become Babe Ruth?

I've got something similar and I've been told LASIK is out of the question...

I have spinal stenosis in a similar capacity that Gronk has and my doctors have told me that I'm not a candidate for the surgery he got. When I ask "Why?" they tell me I can opt to pay the out of pocket costs ($111,000) if that's what I "elect" to do. LMAO

I had pretty bad astigmatism and they recommended this procedure where they laser off a layer on certain parts of your eye to make it more circular. I got it done and for the next two days I was in the worst pain in my life, then moderate pain for like 3 months. But...I can see.

It is interesting how we've been having things go our way the last few years, when for ****ing decades it was "b/c Chiefs," and it seemed that everything we touched turned to shit.
