I didn't realize there was a formal limit. I was trying to get out ahead of the storm. Good to know in the future, though!

yeah I don't even look at them until they hit 2000+ but it's always better to be proactive and keep things speedy! So it's much appreciated!

New thread leaner faster and more focused. We'll call it the Dwayne Bowe of training camp threads.

[JoeyChuckles]

The big question is how are the Van Dyke brothers looking?

Seriously, check the roster if you don't know what I'm talking about.

This Thursday against the bengals.

I say 3rd even tho he been busting his ass off.

[thabear04]

Wonder what happen to Mike DeVito hand.

I'd say 3rd.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

3rd.

The depth chart was released already....

[RealSNR]

How about we fuck the mega threads and just do what we always used to do and start a new training camp thread each day?

Or... not... I guess

[BigBeauford]

3rd.

I would love to see Reid fuck with people and have Bray play in the 2nd. The speculation would be incredible.

Seriously, check the roster if you don't know what I'm talking about.

One of them got cut yesterday, along with a FB. Signed a D-lineman that was at rookie camp in May.

Fuck, dude. I don't want Smith in there for an entire quarter..

Don't want to see Jamaal for more than a series or two either.

[Chiefnj2]

****, dude. I don't want Smith in there for an entire quarter..

.

Chance of getting hurt dumping it off five times to DAT is slim.

[ThaVirus]

I don't want to put it to the test with this line..

Although you're probably right, I'll still be biting my fingers during each snap with the starters in.

[Halfcan]

I think he punched Jon Baldwin. ;)

traffic is slow, mega threads suck


just let the individual threads flow

[Bowser]

So apparently Joe McKnight is off PUP and practicing full go? I like that news. I have high hopes for him in this offense, but supposedly Cyrus Gray is looking good....

And also apparently Catapano has a "virus" and hasn't practiced in a week? Fucking ebola.

[-King-]

That's what I was thinking. I noticed in last night's game that there was something like 6 minutes left in the game when Eli was on his second series..

Not too big of a deal but I just worry.

DAT puts a "wicked move" on derrick Johnson in 11 on 11 drill and gives him the shake.

[OldSchool]

Glad we picked him up. I would love to see Reid have both Charles and DAT on the field at the same time to run some routes. It will be fun to see teams try to figure out how to cover both of them with their LBs and Safeties.

I am just glad DJ didn't break an ankle trying to tackle him.

DAT seems like the 2.0 version of JC- a smaller sleek model with better gas mileage.

I really don't want to see DAT running the ball and taking hits from 300 pound linemen. I want to see him out in space, getting screen passes, and running routes against LBs and Safeties. I'll hold my breath every time he has to take the ball up the middle, which should be never.

I don't think a 300 linemen will be able to catch him?

So you put JC and DAT in the backfield- how do you cover that?

[Dunerdr]

Sack Alex smith.

How will teams ever stop us with Priest and LJ in the back field at the same time!? /2005

They don't have to chase him if he's being asked to run the ball up the middle.

I was speaking of Charles and DAT as receiving threats, not as pure RBs.

[Halfcan]

How will teams ever stop us with Priest and LJ in the back field at the same time!? /2005

How will teams ever stop us with Jamaal and Hillis in the back field at the same time!?! /2011

So you are saying you cover DAT and JC the same way you would if slow Hillis is in there? :doh!:

DAT has already broke one ankle and has faked out All Pro-sure tackler DJ out of his jock. It seems nobody on our D can even get a hold of his jersey.

JC and DAT in the same backfield with KD subbing in. :drool:

[Halfcan]

Lions sign Baldwin- LMAO!!

Because he's like the next Calvin Johnson.

DAT's specialty at Oregon was stretch strong side runs out of shotgun. He is good because his feet are so quick/choppy but also has long speed.. that he can stretch the run or turn up field off the tackle.

[xztop123]

I think we have the best RB copr (if Knile doesnt fumble) and possibly LB in the league

[saphojunkie]

How will teams ever stop us with Priest and LJ in the back field at the same time!? /2005

LOL. To be fair though, our offense raped in 2005. 2011 was just an abortion of an offense.

[OldSchool]

49ers LB core, all healthy > Chiefs and it's not really close

As for RBs, you can argue for several teams and I don't think there is that much of a disparity.

Eagles (McCoy, Sproles, etc)

Seahawks (Lynch, Turbin, etc)

49ers (Gore, Hyde, James, etc)

Vikings (AP, Mckinnon)

Bills (Spiller, Jackson, etc)

We are among the best at those positions though.

Oh no, I said Michaels instead of McKinnon. :deevee:

[keg in kc]

Have they always cut practice for two-and-a-half days before preseason games? Wonder if I just didn't notice that in the past.

[RealSNR]

Have they always cut practice for two-and-a-half days before preseason games? Wonder if I just didn't notice that in the past.

That seemed weird to me as well. They're not even just doing one more day without pads.

WTF are they doing? Biking to Cincinnati?

[keg in kc]

WTF are they doing? Biking to Cincinnati?Hope not, since the game's here.

[RealSNR]

Hope not, since the game's here.

Then it really makes zero sense.

I wonder if it's just "training camp" practices? They will probably break tomorrow and practice at the Chiefs facility on Wednesday and Thursday, where the press can't observe practice

[keg in kc]

Then it really makes zero sense.

I wonder if it's just "training camp" practices? They will probably break tomorrow and practice at the Chiefs facility on Wednesday and Thursday, where the press can't observe practiceNot sure. Part of the reason I asked is that the schedule reads the same next week, before the game at carolina.

[jonzie04]

No doubt, covering dat(if he plays up to his potential) and jc would be a very difficult task. I really hope he pans out.

[jonzie04]

That seemed weird to me as well. They're not even just doing one more day without pads.

:deevee:

[Dante84]

I think they will practice, walk through, etc... Just not publicly.

[Dante84]

Now what will I do with my morning :(

[Dunerdr]

No updates fu*******. Well in other news it looks like we're switching to a 4-3 to save money. Jk but seriously if Tyler bray could turn on the Aaron Rodgers this preseason that'd be greeeeat.

[In58men]

@RapSheet: Name to remember out of #Chiefs camp: Ex-Georgia St WR Albert Wilson. Undrafted, just 5-9, but a playmaker. Real good chance to make it

@RapSheet: Name to remember out of #Chiefs camp: Ex-Georgia St WR Albert Wilson. Undrafted, just 5-9, but a playmaker. Real good chance to make it

I'd like to see Wilson and Harrison make it.

[Strongside]

@RapSheet: Name to remember out of #Chiefs camp: Ex-Georgia St WR Albert Wilson. Undrafted, just 5-9, but a playmaker. Real good chance to make it

He caught my eye a few times while I was up there. Probably a good call.

[KCUnited]

Wilson was playing 1st team slot when I was up on Friday.

[saphojunkie]

Bowe, Avery, Jenkins, Hemmingway, Wilson and Harrison.

Frankie Hammond is making this team.

[Anyong Bluth]

I'm not in the KC area, but does Metro Sports still have a nightly training camp update with video and discussion?

Always seemed to be a decent amount of training camp info on there back in the day.

Bengals and Niners have better LB corp than we do(until Ford proves his worth)

but I dont think any team has better backs than us. I like Knile Davis a lot though

[suzzer99]

I'll take Hali, Houston, Johnson and whoever over pretty much any 3-4 LB corps.

[Halfcan]

Frankie Hammond is making this team.

His chances are better since Junior Hammyway has not practiced.

Can't make the club in the tub-Herm

Yeah im not sure why Hemmingway is a lock to make the team on everyones list. He's slow and made a handful of catches last year and now hes a lock?

[saphojunkie]

His chances are better since Junior Hammyway has not practiced.

Can't make the club in the tub-Herm

I think he'll make it no matter what.

Right now, my money is on:

Bowe
Avery
Jenkins
Hammond
Wilson

and then it's between Hemmingway/Harrison/Williams for the last spot.

[-King-]

That seemed weird to me as well. They're not even just doing one more day without pads.

WTF are they doing? Biking to Cincinnati?

Go back to KC today. Go through walk throughs tomorrow.

[Strongside]

Seems crazy that we're only 2 days away from seeing the team back on the field. After watching that playoff collapse in person, this has been the longest offseason I can remember.

No shit.

[RunKC]

I just heard on 810 that they asked David Culley about Albert Wilson and he was flat out shocked that the kid wasn't drafted.

Would be awesome if Wilson and Parker became good players.

[OldSchool]

Frankie Hammond is making this team.

Only if we keep 6 WRs. Hammond is listed behind both Williams and Wilson on the depth chart, btw.

Not having a 7th round pick might have had something to do with it. Never know though...

Or that this draft was one of the deepest drafts in history.

[Marcellus]

My guess would be he was talking about being shocked he wasn't drafted after seeing the kid perform in OTA's and TC, not before the draft.

[Mr. Laz]

Not having a 7th round pick might have had something to do with it. Never know though...
you know what i mean


If he was so great then why didn't the chiefs pick him up? Trade down and get extra low pick and grab him ... whatever.


Hope Wilson turns out great but we hear this bullshit every TC.

And Davis.

It will probably come down to special teams, though. I'd be happier carrying a 6th WR who can cover kicks and catch passes versus a 10th DB that only plays ST.

Of course, we carried five ILB last year, and I'm not sure we will again.

DJ, Mays, Johnson, Johnson.

His TD run was nice, yes.

But he's still trying to come back from a surgery with a high failure rate.

Really, that wasn't directed to Kelce in particular but ideas about KC's depth at TE.

Fasano is just a replacement level type vet. Kelce is practically a rookie, and Harris is on year two of football PERIOD.

@RapSheet: Name to remember out of #Chiefs camp: Ex-Georgia St WR Albert Wilson. Undrafted, just 5-9, but a playmaker. Real good chance to make it
He looks bigger than 5-9

He looks bigger than 5-9

He's 200 pounds.

Yup, he's a WR who is built like a RB. I wish he would have dropped about 10/15 pounds to increase his speed and explosiveness even more, but it looks like he'll be fine at his current weight.

High failure rate in BASKETBALL PLAYERS.

I don't know of many football players that have actually had that.

And, I think Fasano is an EXCELLENT back up tight end. Good blocker, decent receiver. And Harris can come along slowly.

[Dunerdr]

The supposed numbers show people who where highly successful athletes to start recover better. Most scrubs and average guys didn't come back. Maybe kelce is a killer athlete and that's just what it takes.

8. Peter King thinks- the Chiefs will wear Red at some point this year.
9. Peter King thinks- the Chiefs will draft players to fill out the roster.
10. Peter King thinks- that fans might get together before games at "Arrowhead" and most likely cook food. He is calling it "Tailgating" based on the fact-some fans will have their "tailgate" on their trucks down during the process.

and as a bonus... Peter King thinks- the Night games will be dark-so the Chiefs will most likely turn on the lights inside the stadium to counter the darkness.

PFF: Chiefs/Bengals (https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2014/08/08/refo-bengals-chiefs-preseason-wk-1/)

Kansas City — Three Performances of Note

As Good as Advertised

After 13th overall pick Aaron Donald, the second most impressive pass rusher at the Senior Bowl was outside linebacker Dee Ford. The Chiefs 23rd overall pick did his best to show that performance wasn’t just a fluke. Ford picked up a pass rushing grade of +3.7, and a run defense grade of -1.4 on 57 snaps against the Bengals. Those grades are eerily similar to his Senior Bowl splits. The run defense is concerning, but it was more of a discipline problem than a talent deficiency. Most of Ford’s snaps, however, came against backup tackles and it will be worth watching if he ever gets a chance to run against starters as the preseason moves on.

Good to be Back

Malcolm Bronson hadn’t played in a competitive football game since 2012, but you couldn’t have guessed that by watching him play last night. The Chiefs safety was flawless in coverage. He didn’t allow a catch on two targets and took home an interception with a lightning quick break on an out route intended for Brandon Tate early in the third quarter. It was all a long time coming for the McNeese State product that tore his ACL his senior season and spent all of 2013 rehabbing on the Chiefs practice squad. With the rave reviews from practice, and a ridiculous +2.7 grade in 29 snaps on Thursday, Bronson could be in line for serious snaps when the regular season rolls around.

Much Needed Weapons

The Chiefs offensive skill players outside of Jamaal Charles were amongst the worst in the league last season. Not a single other wide receiver, tight end or running back with significant playing time had a positive receiving or rushing grade. That is why seeing Travis Kelce(+1.1 receiving grade) and De’Anthony Thomas(+1.4 return grade) each score long touchdowns must have been a sight for sore eyes for Chiefs fans. Kelce, a third round pick in 2013, showed no signs of wear after microfracture surgery cost him his rookie year. The 6’5”, 260 pound tight end put a filthy move on Lavelle Westbrooks to get open late in the second quarter and then accelerated away from 5’10”, 205 pound Isiah Lewis for a 69 yard touchdown.

It was an impressive display of athleticism, but it wasn’t quite on DAT’s level. The Oregon rookie was hit by Dre Kirkpatrick as he caught a punt at his own 20 yard line at the end of the first quarter. The former track star, unfazed by the contact, looped towards the right sideline and blazed by multiple Chiefs in the process for an 80 touchdown return. Thomas only played three snaps from scrimmage Thursday, but I would expect that number to climb in upcoming games.

Game Notes

- Conner Vernon caught his first professional touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter only to find out today that he had been cut by the Bengals.

- Despite recording a flashy unblocked sack, first round pick Darqueeze Dennard (36 snaps) struggled in all other facets of the game. The corner missed two tackles and yielded 20 yards on two of three targets for a -2.7 overall grade.

- 8 of the 11 backup linemen for the Chiefs finished with positive grades (Rishaw Johnson, J’Marcus Webb, and Jeff Linkenbach only negatives) and center Eric Kush led all Chiefs with a +3.5 overall grade.

PFF Game Ball

Malcolm Bronson did his best to shut down the Bengals air attack, collecting a +3.7 coverage grade in his first NFL game. For that reason he gets this game ball even though there was reason for excitement from a handful of players.

5 things Peter King thinks about the Chiefs...

http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download

12 picks next year so we can continue in the 2nd year of the 5 year rebuilding plan

The 1st year was a band aid year for Hunt, this is the 1st year of the rebuild.

[Mr. Laz]

Eric Kush led all Chiefs with a +3.5 overall grade.
I think Kush looked good too.

I want to see him with the #1 unit some next week.

Im pretty jacked about the upcoming years.

Outside of the misfortune of having 1.1 in a shit year, Nico Johnson shitting the bed, and Commings inability to stay healthy, Dorsey knows how to spot talent and find diamonds in the rough.

12 picks is going to be AWESOME.

[jd1020]

12 picks is going to be AWESOME.

Hopefully the Chiefs dont actually use all 12 picks and actually make some trades, but given that Dorsey hasn't even sniffed a trade on draft day I'm not holding my breath.

I rewatched over the weekend, and actually Fisher did a pretty good job. It was so strange on the sack... he held his ground really well on the initial rush, and then somehow just got THROWN to the ground. As if he was more than powerful enough front to back but side to side was a rag doll.

He did come back and have really solid blocking on the next series, though. I'd like to see the guy not give up a single sack for the rest of the preseason, and I'll call this one a fluke. But the clock is absolutely ticking on him.

Chiefs Training Camp Report, 8/11/2014
Aug 11, 2014 -- 12:52pm



By @TJCarpenterWHB


NOTES:



- Sean Smith had high highs and low lows today in practice. He got a couple INTs and then was flat out dominated off the ball a couple times by Donnie Avery



- Ron Parker and Sean Smith were put in with the first team defense on a number of 11 on 11 drills today



- Chase Daniel continues to struggle at camp throwing interceptions, but that is not unlike his performance from TC last year.



- Frank Zombo may be the odd man out in LB corps, Dezman Moses injury may change that, but as it stands right now, Outside Linebacker group consists of Hali, Houson - Ford, Martin - and then if Zombo were to make the team, he would be the 5th OLB on the 53.



- Albert Wilson continues to play well, I still believe Frankie Hammond will make the team over Wilson, but camp is long and right now Wilson looks like the more productive of the two. Kyle Williams also continues with strong performances at camp.



- Albert Wilson also may prove to be a better WR option next season than DeAnthony Thomas, who has smaller hands and less weight on his frame.



- DAT is clearly the fastest football player in pads they have at camp. I asked Adam Teicher about how Thomas compares to Dante Hall, who has the same height and about 10-pounds heavier. Teicher said Hall was a stockier player than Thomas, but wasn't nearly as fast as DAT is. Whether he plays on offense much remains to be seen, but I think he'll be a gamer on special teams.



- DAT also worked on kickoff drills today as the catch man on several "Music City Miracle" drills. They did a shorter version of the play as well that involved Knile Davis as the catch man.

[saphojunkie]

Fisher tripped over Jeff Allen

Is that it? I suppose that's somewhat more encouraging.

[Coogs]

Bailey says this years offensive line better than last years.

[Bob Dole]

I'm counting 11 picks. How do we get 12?

7 allotted picks, plus maxed-out 4 compensatory picks.

It is listed in today's MMQB

He is a guy who should know.

[Mr. Laz]

Is that it? I suppose that's somewhat more encouraging.
Yea, i watched it a couple of times and it appears that Allen got pushed back into Fishers legs as he was blocking undercutting him enough that he went down.

Fisher still should have been stronger but it wasn't as bad at it looked.


Allen still seems to have issues. As i said in another thread, i hope our entire Oline interior gets reworked. Some of our backups looked good. Maybe Allen would be better at OT. Dunno.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- A daily review of the hot topics coming out of Kansas City Chiefs training camp at Missouri Western State University:
•The Chiefs continued to get a long look at young defensive lineman Jaye Howard, who has been starting in place of the injured Mike DeVito, who has a broken hand. Howard received the second-most snaps of any Chiefs defensive player in the preseason opener against Cincinnati, and from all appearances Howard will play a lot in Sunday night's game against the Panthers in Charlotte. They kept Howard on their active roster all season last year after claiming him off waivers from the Seattle Seahawks, and even though he played in just three games they obviously they saw plenty of talent to work with. They may be seeing the payoff. Howard had a sack and was second on the Chiefs in tackles against the Bengals.
•Developmental quarterback Tyler Bray continued to flash the talent that makes him an intriguing prospect to the Chiefs. He has the best arm among the four quarterbacks in camp and he showed it off on a pair of back-to-back plays. He threw a deep ball that was well-placed between defenders that A.J. Jenkins couldn't quite catch up with. Bray then threw a dart for a big gain to Frankie Hammond Jr.
•For veteran help at safety, the Chiefs turned to Jonathon Amaya, who participated in practice on Monday after taking the roster spot of the suddenly retired Steve Gregory. Amaya played in 38 games over three seasons with the Saints and Dolphins. After Gregory left camp, the Chiefs had precious little NFL experience at safety behind the starters, Eric Berry and Husain Abdullah. Amaya could still conceivably make the regular-season roster, but that could depend more on how young safeties like Daniel Sorensen and Malcolm Bronson fare the rest of training camp and the preseason.
•Another practice session came and went with rookie Cairo Santos doing all the kicking. Incumbent Ryan Succop has a sore groin and hasn't kicked since the Cincinnati game. The Chiefs haven't gone with a rookie kicker to begin a season since 2009, when Succop entered the league. But that possibility is looking more and more likely.
•The Chiefs practice again on Tuesday at 9:15 ET/8:15 a.m. CT.

[saphojunkie]

The surprise of Zach Fulton has really, really, really helped to turn this OL debacle around. If we can seriously get an upgrade at RG out of a rookie sixth rounder - and by all accounts, that's what happened - then it goes a long way to securing depth.

If you add The Ballad of Ricky Henry to that mix at LG, then suddenly the options at OL depth look much better.

I hope the interior of our Oline is much stronger this year. Technique is great but the is something to be said for having power inside.

By @TJCarpenterWHB


NOTES:



- Sean Smith had high highs and low lows today in practice. He got a couple INTs and then was flat out dominated off the ball a couple times by Donnie Avery



- Ron Parker and Sean Smith were put in with the first team defense on a number of 11 on 11 drills today



- Chase Daniel continues to struggle at camp throwing interceptions, but that is not unlike his performance from TC last year.



- Frank Zombo may be the odd man out in LB corps, Dezman Moses injury may change that, but as it stands right now, Outside Linebacker group consists of Hali, Houson - Ford, Martin - and then if Zombo were to make the team, he would be the 5th OLB on the 53.



- Albert Wilson continues to play well, I still believe Frankie Hammond will make the team over Wilson, but camp is long and right now Wilson looks like the more productive of the two. Kyle Williams also continues with strong performances at camp.



- Albert Wilson also may prove to be a better WR option next season than DeAnthony Thomas, who has smaller hands and less weight on his frame.



- DAT is clearly the fastest football player in pads they have at camp. I asked Adam Teicher about how Thomas compares to Dante Hall, who has the same height and about 10-pounds heavier. Teicher said Hall was a stockier player than Thomas, but wasn't nearly as fast as DAT is. Whether he plays on offense much remains to be seen, but I think he'll be a gamer on special teams.



- DAT also worked on kickoff drills today as the catch man on several "Music City Miracle" drills. They did a shorter version of the play as well that involved Knile Davis as the catch man.

I really hope they don't cut Albert Wilson. I can see him being a good contributor this year and in the future.

[htismaqe]

I agree. He looks like he WANTS the job and he's certainly earning it from all reports.

Why is no one talking about Dressler? WHY!?!?!?!!!!!!!!

Sacc's great white hope is still around, yes?

[ThaVirus]

Cut whitey!!!

[ThaVirus]

Sounds like Sean Smith is getting a ton of INTs. Obviously he's been spending a lot of time with the 2s but..

That's usually a win-win. Our starting CB looks good while our backup QB looks like shit and inches closer to being cut.

Depends on which backup.

[ThaVirus]

Yeah, I was talking about Chase.

He's the one that's running with the 2s most often, albeit not always, and it sounds like he's been throwing more INTs than any other QB.

At any rate, that's why I said it's "usually" a win-win.

In before the storm of "experienced player" crowd.

Chase is just trying to get both his receivers and db's used to catching the ball, clearly.

I heard he volunteered to be bumped down to 2nd string just so he could go up against Daniel and inflate his TC interception total. :evil:

[aturnis]

I really hope Allen gets his ass benched. I noticed virtually zero improvement from last year to this year in that preseason game

I was thinking he hasn't shown any improvement since his rookie season...

[ThaVirus]

The interior of our line is just a shit show of fantastic proportions.

LT is a projected abortion.

RT is serviceable but probably still subpar, to be honest.

Normally guys like him (competent vets) come in and start. Take Mays for example. The difference is that he wasn't brought in to play DE in the 3-4 imo. He was brought in to play DT in the nickel. Last year we lined up in the nickel around 50% of the time. Mark my words. He will be an impact player in the nickel and a back up 3-4 DE. You are getting your panties in a wad for nothing. He wasn't brought in to start in the 3-4. That was never the plan.

A good chance? I don't think so from what I saw Thursday. The depth actually looks pretty solid and I think the competition is pretty good.

Defensive lines would need a black arrow to penetrate our interior OL.

[Bob Dole]

Lovely.

Safety Eric Berry arrived for practice in helmet and full pads, apparently ready for another day at the office. But Berry left the field early in the workout and didn’t return until his teammates were almost finished -- this time without helmet and pads. Coach Andy Reid said Berry has tendinitis in his injured heel. “He works a few days and then it bothers him and it inflames a little bit," Reid said. “Then we back off." Berry didn’t play in last week’s preseason opener against Cincinnati, and this routine calls into question his ability to withstand the rigors of a full season.

Hah.

An underachieving LT, a LG that a lot of people want kicked to he curb, a C that people are clamoring to move to guard, a big ass ? at RG, and a decent RT.

We've got a lot of competition because everyone is average at best.

Paying Walker over 4 million a year on average to be a backup along the line is money wasted.

[John Dope]

Paying Walker over 4 million a year on average to be a backup along the line is money wasted.

Will he be a back up if he is the nickel package and we run that formation 50% of the time? Do we really have a base formation anymore?

[Halfcan]

Paying Walker over 4 million a year on average to be a backup along the line is money wasted.

I am sure Houston thinks so as well.

[saphojunkie]

Paying Walker over 4 million a year on average to be a backup along the line is money wasted.

Uh... he's not making $4 million a year. His salary is 730k with $1M per year in signing bonus.

If he saw his last two years - which he won't, BTW - his average would be $3M a year over the entire life of the contract.

[thabear04]

Daniel had another pick by DVD

[In58men]

Daniel sucks major balls. He didn't learn a ****ing thing from Brees.



I also hate that his ****ing last name is Daniel and not Daniels. What a shitty last name.

He signed a 3 year, 13.75 million deal with 3.75 million guaranteed.

If he plays it out, his yearly average is over 4 million a year. I don't care what his year 1 cap hit is.

He's overpaid if he's playing as a rotational backup player.

Is that official? I thought they couldn't do that after they decided not to put him on PUP? He would have to really get hurt and the NFL would have a close eye on it. The Star wrote about it before camp.

It's not official yet, but they can IR Murray for his injury he had last season at Georgia even if he plays the entire preseason (at least that is what the radio fellas say). Because of that, I can see it going down that way. They're not ready for Bray to be anything other than the #3 guy, but they don't want to lose either Daniel or Murray for this season.

It sounds like the KC decision makers thought Bray wasn't going to progress like he did this past summer through OTA's to the present( the leaked rumor that Bray was having problems assimilating the playbook was indicative to that ).Murray was the insurance policy for another development QB who's a complete system's dependent prospect who has the mental aspect for the position.

Mathews started for Maclin last night and was targeted nine times. He had nine receptions for 104 yards. Maclin is going to end up in the slot soon and Mathews will win ROTY imo. If Dee Ford sucks, we are going to be pissed we didn't take Mathews.
