Winston was a great tackle to run behind.

This would make no sense whatsoever.

But not great to pass behind. And in an expected more pass happy offense this makes sense.

ya, I think Stephenson could play that side well with those big arms of his.

thinking about a recent discussion with milkman now ROFL

$9MM is a lot to pay Branden Albert to play right tackle for one season, but the #Chiefs seem prepared to do just that.

or they could be bringing in someone else to play Rt. Miller wants to move Albert all over the line.

Per @ProFootballTalk, #Chiefs are releasing RT Eric Winston. Move saves $5.5M in cash, $3.5M in cap space.

How many years did we sign him for initially?

Yeah I bet he's got a huge boner over this...

They've got a plan. This is too big a move. They have a replacement.

Frankly, I think the Chiefs are getting ready to buy them some FA's. I think Dorsey/Reid have bigger plans than we do.

Three, I believe.

Andy Reid typically knows when to let players go at the right time. I haven't seen Winston play much, so I can't know for sure. He did a good job with the Eagles at letting players go right before their production hit major decline.

Haven't we figured out it's a bit premature to predict what's going to happen yet?

RunKC 03-06-2013 07:21 PM

I think they want a big RT. Winston just didn't fit.

Looks like Reid is really hammering down on the OL after his catastrophe in Philly.

They were looking at OL hard at the combine, so might be seeing multiple OL picks in the draft.
