Chiefs Sign A TE Named Tony
The Chiefs dealings in the last 24 hours make them even on tight end Tonys.
Say good bye to 10-time Pro Bowler Tony Gonzalez.
Say hello to Tony Curtis (right).
The Chiefs announced the signing of Curtis on Friday, less than 24 hours after trading Gonzalez to the Atlanta Falcons.
Curtis - 6-5, 251 pounds, 26 years old - has seen action in 36 games during his three-year NFL career with Dallas (2006-08). He has caught 11 passes for 80 yards with three TDs and has five tackles in the kicking game to go with three kickoff returns for 27 yards.
He caught 14 passes for 112 yards and three TDs for the Cologne Centurions in NFL Europa during the league’s final season back in 2007. He entered the NFL as a rookie free agent with Dallas in 2005 out of Portland State.
A California native, he grew up in Seaside and was named Monterey County Athlete of the Year in 2001.
Yipee Kia!!!
Give him Number 88 lol
Hey wasn’t he also a member of the Rat Pack?
What The?
Is this a good thing?
I like it, with this guy and Ryan its good depth at the 2nd/3rd tight end slot, and these guys have good experience…this works for me…
Notice the amount of catches from TE’s in NE/Arizona….we may not need a dominate TE. Plus I do believe Cottam is a first round talent with a glass body that hopefully changes.
Hey guys, we can be excited by Haley’s previous analysis when he first got here…
“I think we have a pretty good punter…”
LOL
Well, they probably won’t be looking draft a TE now that they’ve signed two of them. Far as I can tell, Ryan and Curtis are blocking types. If Cottam isn’t ready, we can get by with these two provided we acquire another impact WR or two….ie, Boldin, Parrish, Booker.
I think Cottam is the best of the three so hopefully he stays healthy and steps it up.
However, I love James Casey out of Rice. If they draft him in round 3 I’d be pretty excited.
what do you think….
how about the chiefs using this pick to trade for Boldin from the cards….
he in only 28…
that would be an awesome trade for tony g!!
