Chiefs WR Lance Long is drawing comparisons to Wes Welker in Kansas City, most notably from quarterback Matt Cassel who played with Welker in New England.
<div class="s_playerNewsTextMain"> "He's a great slot receiver," Cassel said of Long. "He's got tremendous quickness, he gets in and out of his breaks well, he catches the ball, he's a tough guy." Clearly earning the trust of his quarterback as well as his head coach, Long is a savvy pickup this week in PPR leagues.

That inept piece of **** shoved the WCO ******** down our throats and blamed it's shortcomings on poor execution. He had a quality WR with a WCO skill set on his own roster and couldn't find a way to utilize it. It infuriates me that we are still paying the guy.
