Chiefs Sign C Wade Smith
http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/2008/04..._c_wade_smith/
Kansas City Chiefs President Carl Peterson announced on Monday that the club has agreed to terms of a two-year contract with unrestricted free agent C Wade Smith. As per Chiefs policy, no other terms of the agreement was made available. Smith (6-4, 296) has worked primarily at tackle during his NFL career, but is expected to compete at center with Kansas City. He played in 14 games as a reserve offensive lineman and on special teams for the N.Y. Jets in 2007. He spent two seasons (2006-07) with the Jets, appearing in 23 contests. The sixth-year pro has seen action in 45 games, opening 18 contests at left tackle. Prior to joining the Jets, Smith spent three campaigns (2003-05) with Miami after entering the NFL as a third-round draft choice (78th overall) of the Dolphins in 2003. Smith started all 16 games at left tackle for the Dolphins as a rookie, earning consensus all-rookie honors. He joined tackles Richmond Webb and Todd Wade as only the third rookie tackle in franchise history to open all 16 games. Smith spent the entire 2005 campaign on injured reserve with Miami after suffering a forearm injury in training camp. He attended camp with the Dolphins in 2006, but was released prior to the start of the regular season. The Memphis product was a four-year letterman and two-year starter at left tackle for the Tigers. Smith was named second-team All-Conference USA as a senior. He led Lake Highland High School of Lake Highland, Texas to the regional title in ‘98. |

Before someone posts something stupid, notice that he played for the Jets in 2006 and 2007, while Herm was HERE.

A smart (but dull) signing. He competes in camp for cheap. If he is good- we keep him; if he sucks- he's gone.

Not a bad signing....just kind of a blah signing.
It looks like he played 14 games last year as a back up...however if he was in at C or what who knows? Height: 6-4 Weight: 318 Age: 26 He's young, and a decent sized lineman. |

Damn, I just noticed his height/weight.
Off the top of my head, he'd be one of the heavier centers in the league. |

Camp fodder, nothing more.
Hard to complain about it, though. |
