Glad they were able to come to terms, I believe he's worth the money, and he should continue his success. Hold outs like these were behind the shadows of the Vick situation.

LJ deserves the money. but i have a feeling he's going to get injuried either this or next year.

Curse of 400!

Nice to see him get some sort of compensation for the damages that Herm Edwards will cause because of his play-calling.

^ crappy O-line, curse of the 375, QB situation, great defenses in the division. that's why i traded LJ. he's a bust in my book.

He's a great runner, outstanding vision and power and will to not be tackled. He earned it and it shows the Chiefs and Carl Peterson still know what they're doing.

But right now the best OT on the team is Kyle Turley, a guy who literally cannot tie his own shoes because his back is so bad. And they want him to play G ideally. The holes that have been so well sealed and cleared in the past are not gonna be there near as often anymore. I don't buy into the Curse of 375 as much as I do another one--more than 900 carries in 3 seasons. And he's not quite there, but two other guys who draw a lot less attention about workload--Rudi Johnson and Willis McGahee--are either above it or right at it. Plus LJ never blocks, so he isn't getting as much abuse as a lot of other guys in his role.

here is a good thread asking for trade advice regarding fantasy football: http://www.realgm.com/boards/football/v ... php?t=1123
I don't play FF but I would strongly advise agaisnt the trade. What (if anything) LJ makes up in the running jackson will get u much more in passing. Kitna is going to throw for 4000+ yds again due to the system and the improvements of the WR and OL
