A Message from the General Manager - Kansas City Chiefs

Today I am pleased to announce that we have made two key moves that we feel will further strengthen our chances of going even further than the AFC Conference Championship in 2012.

After extensive scouting during the past several weeks, we have come to an agreement with the Tennesse Titans, sending CB Brandon Carr to the Titans in exchange for FS Joseph Watsha and also 5th Round Pick in next seasons draft.

We feel the addition of Watsha gives us young to develop at the FS position and while we're saddened to give up Brandon, we were quite simply very deep at the CB position and were looking to turn that depth into the future.

We also completed a scouting assignment in Oakland, where we quite honestly spotted what has to be one of the best new talents to take the field. We've had our eye on him for quite some time and were highly motivated to make sure that he was ours.

We're also announcing today that we've moved The Chiefs 1st Round Draft Pick and long-time Chief WR Bobby Wade along with an additional 7th Round Pick to the Oakland Raiders in exchange for WR Russ Mack, and the Raiders 3rd & 4th Round Picks in next years draft.

Russ Mack, we believe, has the potential to be one of the very best receivers in the NFL and we wanted him to wear Chiefs Red for a very long time!!!

Please join me in welcoming both to the team.
