UPDATED: LeRon McClain Signs With The Chiefs

,[quote name='Suggs Package' timestamp='1312299339' post='731814']<br />Gotta agree.  Although I think Leron is a top run blocking FB, his pass blocking is so bad, we would be pretty much the same with only 10 players on the field.<br />[/quote]


honestly, I dont even think his run blocking is too hot anymore either. Not to say he didn't throw a couple nice blocks for Rice last year though.,,,,

He was a probowl FB due to yards rushed, not actual FB'ing duties.

I know. In 08 & 09. Thats why he would be great #2 for us

If not Le'Ron, I'd like to see us bring in [b]Ronnie Brown[/b], Ricky Williams, or Cadillac.

Keep saying this over and over, but yes to whats in bold!! Why pay an ex FB to be our #2 RB, when there are free agent RB's that would fare better?

I'd rather see what Brown could do for us was well. Even though he's on the decline, he offers more big-play potential than Le'Ron, can catch the ball, and is a one of the better backs in the league in terms of pass protection.

i was just getting ready to post that. Looks like we missed out for all you guys that wanted him. Hopefully we look at Cadillac now, cause i really dont want Ricky Williams. I'd much rather have McClain though over all of them.

if he takes less money... he obviously isnt worth the big money or he would have gotten it already... as soon as he comes back to reality i think we re-sign him...

He signed with Philly and they offered the least out of all 4 teams interested (Ravens, Eagles, Rams and Chargers).

The key to why McClain experienced that success in that season was that we had Lorenzo Neal a true blocking fullback also the abundance of injuries to the Rbs that year.... I would like for us to resign him so we can have another experienced back on the team backing up Rice...

I haven't seen any reports or rumors on McClain at all on my ESPN insider account..

McClain and Gaither both are getting reality checks, because they both probably thought they would get a huge deal quickly in free agency market..

At first it seemed that the Chiefs would make a move for McClain but I haven't seen that rumor again since the first day of free agency.

I dont see why we don't just keep McClain and make him our power back we need one anyway and he looks like hes in great shape. Weve already seen what he can do so why not take a chance. Only problem is I think he wants to be feature back but I don't think that's going to happen anywhere. He still may want too many touches though

...So since Ronnie Brown signed with the Eagles, does this mean Ronnie Brown is unavailable?
[/quote]
Yeah if he signed with them Im pretty sure that means hes unavailable lol..Ricky Williams is available though!

He is done in my book, the sooner he signs to another team , the better. We have plenty of RBs that i think can get it done if not better than him.

The money we would spend on him could go to a Pass Rusher possibly.
I just dont see him making that much of a diff., id rather see
A. Allen as a possible number 2.

Just came across this:

@RavensInsider
Aaron Wilson
Chiefs add former Ravens fullback Le'Ron McClain. He's been talking to them for a while. Scott Pioli targeted him and did a lot of homework.

Good video there, but that groups should write a song about winning playoff games first.
