Chiefs Your final 53 - Page 5

oldman · 11:14 PM

Call your final 53. Be prepared to defend your roster.

OFF (25)
QB (2) Mahomes, Henne
RB (3) CEH, McKinnon, Williams
FB (0)
WR (6) Hill, Hardman, Pringle, DRob, Fountain, Kemp
TE (4) Kelce, Bell, Fortson, Gray
OT (4) Brown, Niang, Remmers, PTW
OG (4) Thuney, Smith, LDT, Allegretti
C (2) Humphrey, Blythe
DEF (25)
DE (6) Clark, Jones, Okafor, Danna, Kaindoh, T. Ward, Harris
DT (4) Nnadi, Reed, Wharton, Saunders
LB (5) Gay, Hitchens, Bolton, Niemann, Cobb
CB (6) Sneed, C. Ward, Fenton, Hughes, Keyes, Baker
S (4) Mathieu, Sorenson, Thornhill, Watts
ST (3)
Winchester, Townsend, Butker
My logic is:
Williams over Gore since Williams is a good blocker. No FB because both Gray and Fortson can play H-back. LDT is too expensive to cut. Allegretti and Blythe can both play C/G. I never want to see Wylie in a Chiefs uniform again and the Prince looks good. DRob and Kemp because there's no one else. Blythe can be put on IR after the final roster for a pick up.
Jones can play inside and out, so it's really 5 and 5 on the D-line. I question Clark's future. Cobb over DOD any day of the week.
I'd like to figure out some way to keep Buechele, but I can't seem to find a viable cut. I'm not sure I want to part ways with either Bell or Blythe just yet.

Offense 26

QB (2) Mahomes, Henne
RB (3) CEH, Williams, McKinnon
FB (1) Burton
I know Andy likes a FB but I could easily swap out A 4th RB whether that’s Gore, Thompson, or a RB not currently on the roster.

WR (7) Hill, Hardman, Pringle, DRob, Kemp, Fountain, Powell
I’m one spot heavy here but don’t want to lose Powell on waivers.

TE (4) Kelce, Bell, Fortson, Gray
OT (4) Brown, Niang, Remmers, PTW
OG (3) Thuney, Smith, LDT
C (2) Humphrey, Allegretti
I would initially keep Blythe here and I.R. him. Release Bell for the roster spot and re-sign Bell a day later. He’s not subject to waivers and is on a one year contract so minimal cap cost to cut and then are-sign. Long stays on P.U.P.

Defense 24
DE (6) Clark, Jones, Okafor, Danna, T. Ward, Kaindoh (Herring stays on N.F.I.)
DT (4) Nnadi, Reed, Wharton, Saunders
LB (5) Gay, Hitchens, Bolton, Niemann, Cobb
CB (5) Sneed, C. Ward, Fenton, Hughes, Baker
S (4) Mathieu, Sorenson, Thornhill, Watts

ST (3)
Winchester, Townsend, Butker

The last spot for me came down to Powell, Darrius Harris, O’Daniel(personally ready to move on from him. Like him on ST but too damn light at LB) Keyes, Key/Z.Anderson, Gore. As far as OL goes LDT-Remmers-Allegretti is a pretty good group of backups to start. I look at it like PTW over Wiley because I think they can afford to develop him with the versatility of Thuney to play LT as well as Niang. If they trade someone this is where I would see it I think. Powell, PTW, Fountain, one of Gray or Fortson, one of T. Ward or Kaindoh...you have to have whatever it is now 5-7 inactives on game day. So it’s a balanced of helping now and not giving up quality depth

With the extra 2 spots for game day elevation from the PS we could even see guys like Taco Charlton or Parks who you wouldn’t normally see those guys. Then Dieter and Lammons. Guys like Lammons might very well make it somewhere else as a 4-5th cb on a weak roster. Same thing with Demone Harris at DE. Those borderline guys who have plateaued or reached their ceiling but are still young. They really had a stacked 90 man roster. Like at S they have Key, Anderson, and Clemons that you have to figure all 3 won’t be claimed so bring back 1-2 of those Guys. Bootle would be nice to stash on the PS. Similar player to Lammons. If you get both back great. If not there’s 2 of the same type players that is graded somewhat even IMO. If you lose Keyes hopefully you still have Marlon Character who didn’t play much. Developmental type in the same mold as Keyes. Tyler Clark at DT. Some of these guys will get claimed and become available again being right on that boarder line.

Always an interesting yet anti climatic time of year

Don’t see them cutting Wiley when he was featured on a show they produced.

Someone explain how the IL works in regards to the 53 and if we are able to stash some guys there to avoid cutting Gore etc. Gore has been very impressive. Nice moves and pretty powerful too.

Wallymo · 08-28-2021, 11:21 AM

I don't think Ward would make it through waivers. He has shown too much to sneak him back to the practice squad. Has there been a game in which Ward hasn't dominated when given the chance? He may have an opportunity to be a regular in the rotation this season.

Prince may also be too good to risk another team claiming him. Finding another left tackle with his physical profile would be challenging. He's progressed a ton. There is also the (slight!) risk that Orlando Brown doesn't pan out or is injured. PTW could be more than a temporary replacement. Versatility is great and all, but a potentially dominant back-up to the left tackle position would still be my preference.

The best QB in the league heading the best roster in the league. Are we dreaming?

I thought about that but I’m not sure Kaindoh makes it thru waivers but maybe ward does.

Tompon Bay revenge tour.

booger · 08-28-2021, 11:36 AM

I look at the Wiley vs PTW and think versatility wise I would rather see Prince fill in at G even though he is a T they have had plenty of luck with Wiesmann types playing inside at G if needed. But he has longer arm length and has better feet outside at T. Wiley at either tackle spot is just as bad as Remmers at LT IMO. Wiley doesn’t really have the same LG-RG-RT versatility Remmers has. On paper maybe but the results aren’t pretty. He really has looked uncomfortable to me when playing RT

I never want to see Wylie in a Chiefs uniform again. He almost got our All-World QB killed in the SB.

If you want to bring a guy back this season from IR, he must be on the final 53.

It would be fine for short snapping/field goals/pat’s to use a lineman. It’s punts and covering them running down the field to make the tackle that could cost you. Vermeil used to talk about that and wanting to use Jared Allen because he was a good long snapper. Even then he decided against it. I get what you’re saying though. Like keeping a 3rd qb on the 53 vs the taxi squad
