also feel bad for Jamaal. sucks to spend your prime years running behind a bum o line. I couldn't imagine how well he would have done with an o line like priest had with Jamaal in his prime years.

Just a huge vacuum of guys willing to step up and be the man.

Doesn't help that we brought in a very low key, laissez faire QB.

Yeah he's definitely no Tim Tebow! I'll take a leader like Alex Smith anytime.

That tells me all I need to know about the leadership for the team: there isn't any.

It tells me that goosestepping morons like yourself should try reading books instead of burning them!

I kid.

Actually, it tells me the guy didn't feel like talking to a ****ing reporter. Big deal. Last I checked, he isn't supposed to be leading the reporters.

Surely the Chiefs brass can draft some good lineman!

:facepalm:

He's the purported leader of the defense. The defensive effort in the last Denver game and in the playoff loss was terrible. Generally, a player has to be accountable for such bad play leading to a loss. Why didn't he? Because he's not a leader.

Hell, Derrick Johnson showed more passion for the game in the freaking Pro Bowl by headshotting his own teammate in order to win that extra bonus money for getting MVP. Where the **** was that kind of desire in the latter half of the season?

And before all of you minions point out that DJ's role in the 3-4 wipes him out of making plays, then it's probably time to question whether or not he's worth the contract he's playing on then. You can't tell me that there isn't some FA off the street who couldn't step in and immediately replace him in the lineup.

These two posts seem in contradiction of each other. First you say we could have Schwartz for relative peanuts and then when somebody asks why Shwartz would leave you say $. Fact is that if he is as well thought of around the league as this guy is saying, somebody is going to throw a fairly substantial contract at him. With the way the Chiefs are in relation to the cap, spending heavily on a guard would not be wise. I'd rather resign Asomoah (sp) for a lower contract and let the guys we have fight it out for starting positions along the line. Let the best 5 lineman play.

Dorsey isn't drafting an offensive lineman in Rd. 1. Everybody can get that thought out of their heads now. There is enough young talent on the roster to field an effective offensive line and Dorsey isn't going to draft a guard in the first round with as much talent is available in this draft.

We can plug the holes at nearly every position we have a departing veteran at, but it gets a lot harder at guard if we lose both Asamoah and Schwartz. We only have six draft picks, and now you have to think that the Chiefs will be considering OL with the 1st round pick.

Ugh.

I suppose this also raises the flag for Rishaw Johnson, who looked excellent against the Chargers. And for folks like BossChief, it also raises the flag for Hudson at guard with Kush taking over starting center duties.

But let's face the facts here: Schwartz is an excellent guard that we could have for relative peanuts.

Asamoah sucks. There are plenty of guards in this draft that can do just as good or better than him. He was horrible last season, after many believed he was an up n coming ascending player in the league.

The sky is always falling. I'll be worried when free agency starts. Does no one remember the day before free agency opened last year?

So when a team game plans to keep him in coverage, what is he supposed to do?

And give me the names of the street FAs that can come in and be all pros. I'll wait.

I bet they will. Both Dorsey and Reid KNOW first hand how important quality depth on the O-line is. IF they lose him, I'm confident the Chiefs will find a quality replacement.

DJ wasn't completely useless in the Indy playoff game. Those guys couldn't run the ball for shit and that was due in large part to the defensive like and DJ..

It's not hard to throw the ball away from an ILB though. Once they abandoned the run, it pretty much took him out of the game.

This guy must be a great leader. He talked to reporters.

well, we could move Hudson to guard and start Kush.
