After seeing the outrage on the Chiefs board, I guess I'm OK with Arenas. They think Uncle Andy got bamboozled. Not that they love Arenas, after all he's nothing more than a nickle cornerback taken in the second round. This doesn't make up for Kolb for a second and DRC, but at least Steve Keim doesn't get shafted like Graves and Whisenhunt.
one Chiefs post:
FB for decent Nickel? Par for the course.
In a passing league we trade a corner for a fullback. Great.
I like arenas, but now we have flowers, Sean smith, Dunta, Daniels, Commings, and menzie. Some may compete at safety. Arenas is fairly expendable. Don't know who returns kicks but am confident toub weighed in on this.
Arenas maybe expendable but you dont give him away for a ****ING FB. Especially when you already bringing 4 FBs into camp and just wasted a 6th round pick on one in the draft lol
Arenas was overdrafted ... he should have been a 5th round pick instead of a 2nd.
but now that he is on the team he brings value to the roster.
Hard-nosed football guy
low maintenance
no drama
relatively cheap
solid coverage guy as long as you don't put him on a burner
solid return guy who can get the consistent yards even though he won't break long ones much
imo he can probably play ANY position in the secondary in a pinch
can step in to block the gunner or whatever else you need
solid rank and file type guy ... don't know why we would flush him away instead of jalil brown etc
