Why would Cousins agree to this?? Makes zero sense. And this article was out before the trade went down.

If we could win 11-12 games I will gladly eat some crow

Been reading there was a bidding war in the trade for Smith. Makes me wonder what the Chiefs said 'no' to before they accepted the Skins offer of draft pick and a slot DB.

We have tp have a solid team around Smith to win.
We do not have that just yet.
Depending on what we have up to get Smith, this move is still a big unknown.

what are all the weapons?

they have a great slot wr (hill), a great te and a great rb (pass catching and running) . . . we have a damn good slot wr ourselves (crowder), a great te when healthy (caveat on when healthy) and thompson as our pass catching rb . . . just need a rb for running purposes, but we are not far off offensive talent wise from kansas city . . . and i still think docston will be a damn good wr too . . . KC was afraid to throw to him even when he was WIDE open

Welp the biggest one is the NFL League Rushing Champ Kareem Hunt

This is the key folks....this is the mutherfuckin key

Reed isn't Kelce only because hes made of glass, BUT we do have VDAVIS and I think they'll add another TE this OS. We need a RB bad, Perine is a good backup and CT is a scat back, we dont have a guy that scares anyone.

Weren't the Chiefs a playoff team last season with a RB by committee and not much in terms of receiving weapons (except Kelce)?

It totally makes no sense to me either. However, Steve Gallo is saying that something might be in the works. This is the same guy who broke the news of Kendall Fuller being the PTBNL in the trade. I find it hard to believe it will happen, but man this would sweeten this deal so much.

Dream scenario is move Cousins to the Broncos for WR D Thomas.

EDIT: Looking over the twitter, I'm not sure that actually is Alex Smith's.

Sorry for the fake news LOL

I know people said for the longest time that KC's Twitter feed didnt mean anything (looking at S10 here) but look at Alex Smith's:

https://twitter.com/QBAlex_Smith

He's photoshopped himself (although kinda looks like KC) and his main image is the Skins offense on the sideline.

KC's has said "Business Inquiries: Luke Munson luke@lwsports.net"

There is a huge difference.
