Re: Willie Roaf retires
Ouch, that will definitely hurt their running game.

Re: Willie Roaf retires
I know a lot of fantasy people will jump all over Larry Johnson with the #1 pick, if I had a #1 I might not go that way, even before this news. I think Tomlinson is still the safest pick.

Seems like Saunders got out at the right time.

Re: Willie Roaf retires
That's a huge loss. If he thought he was going to retire, why would he not do it sooner? He's a huge part of that team and their whole philosophy. He's one of the best tackles in the league, without him, they could be screwed. This close to training camp is no time to hang it up. That just seems wrong.

Re: Willie Roaf retires
I had a feeling that KC's offense would really sputter this year, mainly cause the line is old & due to breakdown, but I didn't think it would be in part because of retirement.

Re: Willie Roaf retires
is this serious or just a ploy to get out of training camp? if serious, the chiefs offense is going to have alot of issues

Re: Willie Roaf retires
Unfortunately for him, I bet it had something to do with Saunders leaving.

Re: Willie Roaf retires
He could always rejoin Saunders here later, perhaps.
