It seems the chiefs didnt tag Bowe (or Albert) that was unexpected
 
I wonder if they get him signed before next week.
 
Damn. Would rather have Bowe than Jennings. Still praying for Wallace.
 
Well lets see how much money got thrown at Bowe.

Chiefs had no choice really. Traded for the "franchise" QB and are drafting the "franchise" LT. Only right to re-sign your "franchise" WR. Already have Jamal Charles at RB.

Chiefs might be sitting nice. Should be a surprise team barring good coaching.
 
Bowe wasn't getting enough love around here . . . . he would have been a great fit for the Fins. Big target, good route runner and a competitor. Oh well . . . my man Jared Cook is out there . . . and Miami better be lurking on him.
 
Chiefs moves had major implications for the dolphins. One less big WR on the market, drives up the prices and limits the options. Tagging Albert, while eliminating a potential suitor for Jake Long also probably drives up his asking price due to the payday Albert will get.

Also Cook didnt get tagged, will hit the market, but I have a huge buyer beware on him. Is he an instant upgrade for the fins, for sure he is... but he's also got a worrisome shoulder, and I'm very skeptical about TE in free agency.... seems so many of the "potential break outs" similar to Cook get signed and fade into obsurity ie. zach miller, john carlson.

Cook is an athletic freak . . . he's more in the Vernon Davis mold than the Zach Miller mold. He's a nightmare matchup for whoever uses him correctly. I keep thinking of Bush, Cook, Wallace, Patterson, Bailey on my offense. That would be scary . . . mismatches all over the field and with Tannehills ability to see the field and read the blitz . . . he'd go nutz with that group.

oh don't get me wrong kdawg, athletically Cook blows those boys out of the water. What I was alluding to is the "breakout" aspect of these tight ends. Cook has showed flashes, but if we sign him to the FA deal he is looking for... he better become a big time TE production wise.. thus far, he is basically all 'what if he gets on the right team potential'.

There is ZERO argument that he is an upgrade from what we've got. I'm just fairly certain we wont get the bang for our buck on him... too many red flags for me.
