KC signs 3 Seahawks

[gabel]

The Kansas City Chiefs must think we have a deep roster they have signed Jaye Howard, Sean McGrath and Ron Parker.

Still not sure about letting Sean McGrath go and keeping all those running backs and Offensive linemen.

I think losing McGrath will suck if we have an injury. But then I guess we can always sign him off KC's practice squad.

HawkFan72, He's on the 53 man roster.

I like it. Worst case scenerio they will play in rotation. You guys have no idea how good the NFC is compared to the AFC it's cylindicl. It's rolling around again.....Kansas City deserves better just like Seattle. My dream is Seattle vs Kansas City in New York. As we blow up that stupid 65 toss trap bullshit forever. Then again Hank Stram irratates me for no logical reason beyond is horrible dressing? Dude knew football just like Pete and proved with class just like Pete is seemingly going to do.

McGrath is overrated on this board. What has he done? Nothing. There are plenty others available if they need someone. backup TEs are a dime a dozen. I can name at least 1 TE better than McGrath that is avaialble - Shiancoe.

Show me not what you have done for me, but what you can do for me.

Shiancoe is done

Anyway, I thought Howard went to Jax?

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Shiancoe is broken down, but I'd rather have Davis or Fells (the other one) than McGrath.

I am pretty flattered that the Chiefs and Jags have been so quick to scavenge our team, to be honest. I'm proud of our coach/GM combo for putting together that type of enviable depth.

 

[Blitzer88]

Losing McGrath and Howard does sting a little bit still for me

 

[Smelly McUgly]

Guy went to JAX, Howard to KC.

The Kansas City Chiefs announced several roster transactions on Sunday, including the claiming of seven players off waivers: CB Marcus Cooper, WR Chad Hall, DT Jaye Howard, TE Sean McGrath, LB James-Michael Johnson, LB Dezman Moses and CB Ron Parker.

Great news. This has got to be one of the most successful training camps in Seahawk history. :th2thumbs:

Will Lewis is the Kansas City connection.

Defensive tackle Jaye Howard, tight end Sean McGrath and cornerback Ron Parker were claimed by Kansas City and signed to the Chiefs’ active roster. This is no surprise, with former Seattle personnel man Will Lewis now working in Kansas City.

Reminds me a lot of what Seattle did in PC/JS first season here, all the roster churn. Now we're on the other side of it.

Sorry for the horrible grammar but you got it. Hole in one no less. I will work on the grammar, promise (but it's a bit hard on a phone).

Hey I wasn't talking about your grammar, I was talking about Shram. That guy was a big d-bag.

I might be dating myself, but I played middle linebacker in high school and wore the number 63 because Willie Lanier was my favorite player and yes, Kamiakin high school colors were red with gold trim. This was before the Seahawks even existed. That Chiefs team was my favorite team. The greatest game ever was the longest game ever. Two overtime playoff game, Christmas eve, against the Miami Dolphins. Ed Podolak gave the guttiest performance I have ever seen.

Back to my uniform. I even wore the same type of face mask as Willie. Had to look just like him. Best middle linebacker in the history of the NFL in my opinion.

I was Willie Lanier!

Why call Hall of Fame coach Hank Stram silly names? At least get his name right! Stram, not Shram. The man was a genius, a pioneer.
When you're calling him names, remember to start off your Stram criticisms correctly. To you, that would be "SUPER BOWL CHAMPION Coach Hank Stram".
The context of the "quote" you are picking on him for:

'In the Super Bowl, Stram became the first professional football coach to wear a microphone. Stram's recorded comments from that game have become classics: "Just keep matriculatin' the ball down the field, boys.", and, to the refs, "How could all six of you miss that play?"'

The man was seriously ahead of his time. It's lame to sit here 30, 40, 50 years later and armchair-disrespect one of the all-time great pro football coaches, and that's not even mentioning his work as a broadcast commentator. Go learn about his career and then come back and tell us all about his personal and professional flaws. If you ever do learn enough about Stram to meaningfully criticize him, I got just three words for ya: (OK, technically four)...

Hall of Famer, baby!!
