The Official Derrick Johnson Trade Forum

This is it...after watching Zach Miller and FB Gary Russell make a mockery of our linebackers, I think it is about time the FO realize the problems we have back there.

You all know my opinion of who should be brought in...and we all know that the price would not be that steep.

I propose:

Eagles send 2010 3rd round pick and Chris Gocong for:

Chief's Strongside Linebacker- Derrick Johnson.

Make it happen.

uhh

lb’s are supposed to cover TEs. their mediocre tight end raped us in the face all day.

actually Zach Miller

is a good TE… He has been the only consistant positive the Raiders have had over the past 3-4 years.

thats Cobb on Kolb crime if you ask me... as said by yophillybro

I didnt say they lost the game dude, but our linebackers are getting killed every game. the tight ends on the other team have just dominated our linebackers, look at the numbers. do you not agree man? btw great name randall was the man!

have you watched any of this season?

it is the 2009 season just so your sure…

every game we have been butt raped by TE
the only touchdown in this game came from a blown tackle by our LB and scored by their TE.

i dont blame this loss solely on the LB but to give up the numbers we do to TE its just ridiculous

"Never give in, never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.

Too much.

I’ve heard that they are willing to give him up for a 5th and a medeocre player

Agreed

Don’t want to give up a third but a 5th sounds reasonable.

From the folks over at Arrowhead Pride

Rumor: Chiefs Trying to Trade LB Derrick Johnson and S DaJuan Morgan

The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday at 4 PM Eastern time and the rumors are going to be swirling for the next 48 hour or so.

This report come from Mike Lombardi at the National Football Post, who has consistently delivered solid insider info from Arrowhead. He was very close on early reports about Matt Cassel’s contract.

I do want to stress that this is a rumor. From Lombardi:

The Chiefs are trying to move former 2005 first-round linebacker Derrick Johnson and 2008 third-round safety DeJuan Morgan.

Todd Haley and Co. are making no secret about their unhappiness with the players they inherited from the previous regime.

I’m hearing they don’t like anyone, including Branden Albert, who they feel is not a left tackle.

Strong words from Lombardi as we near the trade deadline. I do believe Lombardi is correct in his comments about the Kansas City Chiefs and their intentions for those players. At least in the sense that there are a lot of Chiefs players who could possibly be moved for the right price. Jay Glazer said earlier today that the Chiefs are open to trading any player except for Matt Cassel.

Back in August, we caught wind of a rumor that Scott Pioli offered the Detroit Lions DaJuan Morgan for a 4th round pick. The Lions didn’t bite, possibly giving us a glimpse into what Morgan may be worth on the open market.

The question is – Will any other team bite on either DJ, DaJuan Morgan or Branden Albert?

Props to Chris Thorman at ArrowheadPride for this.

by andyreidswaistline on Oct 18, 2009 11:34 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

I think a 3rd gets it done for DJ and I’d hop all over that.

I Like

Id Like Him and Merriman actually………..Merriman wud improve the pass rush and be a better run stopper then what we have now. Our blitz gets there too infrequently and it makes us vulnerable because thats the only way we can generate pressure. see kurt warner nfc chip gm……….
