2007 DRAFT: DE TURK MCBRIDE (2nd/54) & DT TANK TYLER (3rd/82)

Over two seasons McBride and Tyler have not been big impact players in the defense that has gone backwards, especially when it came to stopping the run. Last year the Chiefs allowed 158.9 rushing yards per game and finished 30th in the league. And now, the pair must fit their skills into an entirely new scheme.

McBride (6-2, 278) has played in 25 games with 10 starts. He has 35 tackles, 1 sack, one forced fumble and two recovered fumbles.

Tyler (6-2, 306) has played in 31 games with 17 starts. He has 37 tackles and one recovered fumble.

Now, McBride may become an outside linebacker and Tyler looks like he’s going to become a nose tackle.

And Jackson and Magee are now in town to become the next new foundation.

That was the rumor weeks ago.

Why not try it , he's failed at everything else. I hope this is his last year in a Chiefs uniform.

This is not news. I expect failure, too.

jeffery · 05-14-2009, 09:55 AM

What's a 3-4? Is that the new drum beat for our arrowhead pride band?

I don't understand why you would hope that. I would understand you hoping that he does well, and if he doesn't, THEN you can which its his last year in a Chiefs uniform...but don't just outright hope for failing at the start.

EyePod · 05-14-2009, 10:06 AM

But I too am low on hope from the Carl years...

Mr. Krab · 05-14-2009, 10:10 AM

I suppose they could go BIG at the rushbacker position with guys like McBride and Johnston.

B B B Bu Bu Bu But James Harrison was cut on from multiple teams 5,323,242 times and ended up being a Pro-Bowler at the same position. McBride needs to be given a chance since he was out of position/wrong system/horrible coaching, and all of that BS.

See you later Turk.

I didn't say anything about hoping he fails, I said he HAS failed and I hope he is no longer a Chief after this season. I'll go as far as to say I hope that waste of oxygen doesn't make it out of training camp.

maybe I'm behind...

I thought it was just speculation from different posters. I have always thought they would try him there. This is the first time I've seen it from kcchiefs.com or any other respectable source.
