Barksdale was released by Philly. Hopefully, we'll have more info on him and be able to post that info soon.

Question, who is Rashad Barksdale. He is on our depth chart now.

i dont mind the commitment to webb, at least he is young and has never really been given a chance. however, keeping parker baffles me to no end…

Sippio's time at the combine was 4.69, but that was several years ago and maybe a fluke. Since that time he has times of 4.37, 4.40, and 4.45. He has great hands, a good work ethic, runs almost perfect routes, and delivers devasting blocks. Yes, he has an attitude, but is also very much a team player. I likewise have to ask why the Chiefs are so committed to Parker and Webb?

By all accounts it sounds like he had a great work ethic, which is why he made himself into the player he's become. Who knows, though. Maybe it was his attitude. I just think it's Parker and Webb, personally. Real smart, Frank.

There has to be a good reason why they cut him and not one of the others. You can be a good receiver but have questionable character and lack of work ethics. Maybe something will come out that will show us all why they cut him.
