Can we replace the GM?

Good morning. As you know, the Kansas City Chiefs fell short of their goal of an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl this season. There is no doubt in my mind, had Eric Moulds, our fantastic rookie receiver who had over 300 yards receiving in the playoffs, gained one more yard, Joe Montana would have beaten the Jets in overtime and we would now be going to Denver to own those frauds again. But that isn't what happened, and we lost our chance at making history. No doubt, part of our lost chance was due to some unfortunate injuries that unexpectedly brought this fantastic roster to it's knees in Week 17. We're very much looking forward to getting those players back in 1997. Especially Zach Thomas. What a fantastic draft pick he was. Our goal has not changed. We're here to get back to, and win, the Super Bowl. Of course, we'll need a quarterback to do that, and we haven't heard from Joe Montana if he'll be back next season or not. We'll give Joe some time, but of course he is going to be 41. To that end, the search will begin in earnest for a younger quarterback. Whether that player comes from the draft, or free agency, or even a trade, who can say? I can tell you this: we will explore every avenue in addressing the position. And now, our owner Lamar Hunt has a few words to say. http://cache1.asset-cache.net/xr/516...1E1B158D11614D Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know we're very pleased with the job Carl and Marty are doing. They've both been signed to three-year contract extensions, which will keep them Chiefs through the 2000 season. Tough break on the injuries this year. Thanks for coming and don't forget to stop by Worlds of Fun this offseason. |
Who won the title?

ROFL
That was good. Also, if there was one Bronco of all-time I didn't hate, it was Terrell Davis. I have no problems rooting for him here. He was a class act. |
Offseason done.
Ya'll want it in one giant dump or divvied up? |

The Chiefs choke against the Jets, but it's not near as bad as THIS.
https://scontent.fmkc1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...ab&oe=5952D7F4 LOL DONKS. Denver blows the #1 seed, sending Cleveland to NY for the AFCCG. The Jets beat CLE, and then take out Dallas in the Super Bowl. The Chiefs feel a lot better about their divisional loss. John Elway is so distraught over his epic playoff failure he does something rather rash... https://scontent.fmkc1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...94&oe=5953484D The Chiefs lose Joe Montana and Lomas Brown to retirement. Another hole to fill at RT, great! THE 1997 OFFSEASON Retirements Quote:

The Chiefs DO re-sign HB Tim Hall to a cheap 3-year deal, and then do the only logical thing with Will Shields: https://scontent.fmkc1-1.fna.fbcdn.n...35&oe=5988CA38 Shields tag will cost only $9M. This leaves the Chiefs with $25M in cap room. Free agency is a rash of big names and the Chiefs zero in on one target who is NOT getting away.
Spoiler!
Hell yeah, son. The deep ball is coming back to Kansas City. ROCKET signs a 5-year, 34M deal. The Chiefs also ink cheap deals with: Quote:

He's going to get broken in half this season. Like, literally broken in half.
Bring back the old Madden ambulance... http://i3.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/...21/985/1ec.gif |
I was so very, very close to getting Tony Gonzalez. The top two tight ends were both second rounders, so I knew I would be able to get one of them.
Even though he was the 2nd rated TE on the board, I decided that the guy who had B+/B/B- scouting traits was going to be the Gonzalez doppleganger, vs the guy who had a C mixed in on his last trait. He also had a faster 40 time so I figured his OVR was definitely going to be higher. I let the first guy go, and then as soon as a TE-needy team was up, I traded up to 2.16 (it only cost me a 7th and next year's 4th) and took my guy. Then at the end of the draft I looked through all the overalls and kicked myself. The top guy was a 77 vs my 74, so I get Freddie Jones, which isn't altogether horrible. Just picked the wrong guy. The Texans are going to be lethal with Plummer, Gonzalez, Terry Glenn and Chris Warren. As for Joe, Bob Whitfield might have something to say about that. :D I'm counting on a HUGE resurgence of my passing game now that my best WR isn't a rookie (ROCKET, BABY) and Desmond Howard isn't dropping half the balls thrown his way. What a terrible, terrible signing he was. But at least he was cheap. |
You're going to trade up for one of the QBs next year and get stuck with Leaf. I'm calling it.

I would have to be completely fooled by the CPU when it generates the QB class, which would take something like the top 3 quarterbacks having two out of their 3 accuracy ratings remain a mystery, or having it generate no first-round prospects at all, which definitely makes things harder. A lot of times the best QB in a draft class comes in the 4th round. It's more likely that I **** up and don't pick Manning, and end up with the second or third best QB from that class, which would be Matt Hasselbeck or Brian Griese. If that happens, well, Donovan McNabb and Daunte Culepper are coming out in '99. :D Also, another possibility is that the CPU team sitting at #1 or #2 simply won't take my trade offer of three 1sts. Then I may have to gamble on trading for a lower top 10 pick, and then try flipping THAT for the #1 pick. |
The rich 1997 UDFA crop falls as so:
