Chargers Sign DT Alphonso Boone / What can you tell me about him?
http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/...nso-Boone.html
Source: Chargers sign DT Alfonso Boone Veteran lands in San Diego Aaron Wilson Now, it's official. Alfonso Boone is a San Diego Charger. The veteran free agent defensive lineman signed a one-year contract today with the Chargers, a league source told National Football Post. Brad Biggs first reported for National Football Post that Boone was on his way to the Chargers. Boone was cut by the Kansas City Chiefs after starting 19 games over the past few seasons. Boone has a background with Chargers defensive coordinator Ron Rivera and defensive line coach Don Johnson from his time with the Chicago Bears. Boone was on the Oakland Raiders' radar earlier this month, but that interest fizzled out when they acquired Richard Seymour via a trade from the New England Patriots. |

meh
we cut him with our crappy Dline, if that tells you anything. he's a warm body maybe he be more motivated in diego land but he was JUST A GUY when he was in KC we put him at DT and then we put him at 3-4 DE he's not terrible, i guess. He just never really brought anything great either.

A rotational guy, who has seen better days. He'll make a few plays, but I'd lower the bar.

He has a good motor in spot duty. I think he could give you a couple of decent series per game. Very marginal as an every down player.

He was one of the few D linemen we've had who could actually break through and get to the QB. Good luck to him

Im my mind he is a guy when on a team other than the chiefs will excel. The Chiefs seem to have that effect on players.

He's not a bad player, but maybe past his prime.
He did fine as a Chief. His career went downhill when Gunther ****ing Cunningham thought it was a good idea for whatever dumb reason to convert him to be a DE. He played at a lower weight last year, then was asked to play 3-4 DE this season. I think if he stuck with a 4-3 DT, he would have been fine as a rotational guy. |

Dont get to excited. He might give you a nice play or 2 every once in a while but he will never be a dominant lineman.
