He's supposed to be an "in the box" run stuffer type safety who has little to no coverage ability. Take from that what you will.

Yes. Truly effective safetys are often found by signing them off the street after failing to make teams like the Chiefs.

It wasnt like he was a stiff, he led the Chiefs in tackles last year, so he must have made some plays. Also, he has blocked four punts for the Chiefs. People say he was one of the best athletes on their team. He is a physical athletic safety and at least as good as Barber and Busing and ......enough said. Put him in coach! What, are we afraid he'll miss a tackle and let the RB go for 60 yards?

He played every game last season in KC, coaching change a lot of players took the hint. He is a solid player,think he will be an upgrade over Fred

Fred is a CB, Pollard is a SS, he would be taking Busing's spot

I would be willing to bet I can pick out ANY player in NFL (including Peyton Manning) and make it look like their bad...why do you take advice from a Chiefs fan (that's like asking a Dallas fan about their team)
