LT a priority in the draft
 

This just made me laugh

Chiefs | Left tackle a likely draft priority

Bob Gretz, of KCChiefs.com, reports the Kansas City Chiefs will likely target a left tackle early in the NFL Draft should they be unable to come to terms on a contract with free agent OT Jordan Black.


Unable to come to terms.. he should be paying US!!! good riddance

The guy gave up the most sacks of any offensive lineman in the NFL. We did throw him into a difficult position and he's better suited as a guard, but I don't see him having much leverage in negotiations. I think we should keep him as a backup guard.

I would tend to agree.. he would probably be a serviceable guard

but for Gretz to imply that we won't be looking for a LT if we should sign Black is horrific

Black was so much better by season end that sure a lot of folks will go after him. Chiefs will resign him, they have too much invested at this point

I don't care if we sign him back or not, we need a LT

LT LT LT LT LT then DT DT DT DT DT after that who cares ...

We have 10 picks in this years draft? I bet our second rounder is a bust. :)

Black is probably a mediocre guard and a servicable right tackle. A left-tackle he is not. I have a hard time seeing anyone giving Black LT money.

I'm surprised we're not hearing more about Svitek. I thought he was supposed to be the answer at LT.

I can't believe they're even considering starting Black at LT again.

FAX

it's all about the money...

dammit carl! :cuss:

If the chiefs start Black at LT next year there is NO reason to draft or get any free agents on the offensive side of the ball. I don't care if we got Calvin Johnson in the draft with Black at LT our "O" will still suck.

That is humerous.

We need 2 OTs and 2 Dts and a corner.

Drafting a LT in the first round will be expensive, and too huge a gamble. I'll bet a dozen donuts that we pick a CB in the first round.

I think that probably the best value for talent at a position of need for us is probably a WR in the 1st

2 OT, 2 DT, CB, 2 WR, DE, OLB, MLB, and possibly a S.
