Gaither will get his first look at left tackle
Gaither will get his first look at left tackle
The Chiefs won't practice until later this afternoon and coach Todd Haley said when they do, the recently signed Jared Gaither will be working as a left tackle. Gaither can eventually be moved to right tackle if the Chiefs see the need. But at least to start, he'll be on the left side. Interesting move but not unexpected. In his two seasons as Baltimore's starting left tackle, Gaither was better than Branden Albert has been during his time as the Chiefs' starter at that position. If Gaither works out the way the Chiefs hope, Albert should probably prepare to make the move over to the other side of the line himself. Meantime, the Chiefs need to get Gaither into playing shape. ''This is a guy that's been out, hasn't been part of an off-season program, like everybody else,'' Haley said. ''He also missed a couple of weeks so even thought I believe he’s been working on his own, the number one deal for him is going to be the strength and conditioning aspect. He got a couple of good workouts over the weekend and we’re going to continue that.'' ''First and foremost is trying to get him into a baseline physical condition that we feel like gives him a chance to succeed.'' http://chiefsblog.kansascity.com/?q=node/1776 |

It's perfectly acceptable to break an important bit of news out into it's own thread after it's been buried in an older, semi-related thread. Official ruling: No Repost.

If Gaither was coming in as a starter, he'd be starting at RT. Since he's coming in as a backup, it only makes sense. Beginning to get in shape, would start on his comfortable side, on the left. Until I see Albert starting to practice at another position, B Rich taking snaps as a G, etc, there's really nothing to talk about. When and If Gaither gets in Haley shape, he'll be utilized where Haley and Muir thinks he's best

You came on here as the Twitter king and you've turned into a complete cockbag in a short time.

If Gaither is signed for more than one year, which I hope, then I wouldn't be shocked to see Albert at LG next year.
