Pioli is building this team beautifully

It's a good thing he didn't? The only way he would exit outta town is by losing. Which was the case, and very few ppl would want that guy running their football team anyway?

I just wish they woulda kept Wiegman? Wiegman, Goff, and Waters would be a nice trio on the interior part of the line.

Goff at RG and try to draft a Center who can start at some time in the 2009 season. Later in the draft take a RT tackle prospect and let him battle it out with all the other linemen on the roster.

Gee, guys, let's not read and shoot the messenger, okay??

Taken from a VERY RECENT article already posted on this site...

Former San Diego Chargers guard Mike Goff visited the Kansas City Chiefs today according to Bill Williamson of ESPN.

Goff is a 33 year old guard originally drafted by the Bengals in the 3rd round of the 1998 draft. After six seasons in Cincinnati, he moved to the AFC West spending five years with the Chargers.

San Diego decided not to pursue another contract with Goff following the 2008 season.

Though his age is a bit of concern, his durability isn't. He's started a full 16 game slate every season dating back to 2002.

If Brian Waters returns to the team in 2009, the Chiefs are set at left guard. However, a hole exists at right guard which was filled in 2008 by Adrian Jones. There's even been some talk of moving Damion McIntosh to the guard position opposite of Waters.
The Chiefs are also attending a private workout with LSU defensive tackle Ricky Jean-Francois today so it's unclear what coaches and/or part of the management team are attending what workout and if any contracts will be offered.

Tackling the guard position in free agency would go a long way to shoring up the Chiefs offensive line. As it stands now, the Chiefs likely have to add a guard and long-term solutions at center and right tackle.

The Chargers have been an excellent running team the past few years so it's nice to see the Chiefs strategy for the offensive line over the offseason entails players from successful units.

Shaun McDonald does the same thing Bobby Engram does no need for 2 of the same thing.

Yeah, but he's younger...

Honestly do you feel real comfortable at the WR position?
Bowe's the only guy I'm confident in.
Bradley did some great things here last year and would be the perfect #2 if he could stay healthy. Franklin's progress last year was a bit reeruned and he dealt with injuries too... Webb's never lived up to his potential. Engram's 36 and should only figure in as a slot guy.

You wouldn't wanna throw another guy into the mix?

I do feel a lot better about it than I did at the beginning of last year. Still some be be desired though.

It's definitely better than last year.
We didn't have Bradley to begin the 2008 season.

Jeff Webb blows and will probably get cut...

We don't have good WR's but adding more blah guys isn't going to help the Chiefs in reality need another starter they have most of the backup roles filled.

Well it's true, when you guy sign a guy like Terrance Copper to be a backup special teams guy that screams that Jeff Webb is out.

You carry 5 to 6 WR's the Chiefs have most of the roles filled there other than the 2.

Im actually surprised he's still here....

However, a hole exists at right guard which was filled in 2008 by Adrian Jones. There's even been some talk of moving Damion McIntosh to the guard position opposite of Waters.

Glad you ****ers acknowledged it.
