Haley buys some insurance at the TE position



The Chief's have signed journeyman TE Anthony Becht after Linebacker Brandon Siler goes down for the entire season with a torn Achilles Tendon.

Chiefs sign TE Anthony Becht

Becht will take Siler's spot on the roster and help provide insurance to coach Haley at the TE spot. Both Pope and Moeaki are experiencing health issues this preseason and Becht is bringing experience to this team. Becht played 10 NFL seasons with the Jets, Bucs, Rams and Cardinals but was out of the league in 2010.

Becht is not known particularly for his receiving skills with his best season came in 2003 with the Jets registering 40 catches that year. However, since 2006 Becht has caught more than 10 balls in any season. The Chiefs have been a very good TE utilized team throughout the years and have shown the ability to groom young talents like Tony Moeaki at the TE position so Becht should contribute more for this team especially if Moeaki and Pope are plagued with health issues this year.

Scott Pioli and Todd Haley almost traded Jamaal Charles away

Jamaal Charles - RB - Kansas City Chiefs

According to Adam Teicher the Kansas City Chiefs almost made a huge mistake, and I mean huge. According to sources, in 2009 when Scott Pioli and Todd Haley joined the Chiefs the Washington Redskins GM Vinney Cerrato phoned them up and offered a 4th round draft pick for Jamaal Charles. At the time Charles was 4th on the depth chart at the running back position behind Larry Johnson, Kolby Smith and Dantrelle Savage. Pioli and the Chiefs countered the offer by asking for a 3rd round draft pick in return for Charles. The Redskins declined and the two teams left it alone. Would Charles have been the same running back in Washington? I guess we will never know but the Chiefs really dodged a bullet on that one and Scott Pioli again makes the right move, somehow.
