While I've been saying that the Chiefs should spend a 3rd rounder on an ILB since last year, it's impossible to predict that the hole would actually be filled, especially if there's not a proven veteran behind him (and Brandon Siler doesn't count, IMO).

Here's my "beef" with Schwartz: For two straight years, he's been hyped in the media as a "under the radar player", yet he's on his third team in three years.

I hope he works out but I wouldn't bet on it, especially long term.

He's definitely a question mark at this point, at either position.

A gamble nonetheless.
Stephenson showed that the game wasn't too big last year and he came in extremely raw. He *could* be the long term solution at right tackle, or not. Allen, on the other hand, did look overwhelmed far too frequently for my taste.

Asamoah is in a contract year and really needs to step it up. Otherwise, he'll lose his job and probably not get it back, unless there's an injury.

I really, really liked him coming out of college but he's just been average at best. Average is fine, if the rest of the line is average or above average, but he's definitely been hurt by center and right tackle play.

He hasn't been a dominant player that I thought he would quickly become in the NFL.

Yeah, this is a BIG issue. We all saw Jon McGraw back there. I just hope we don't see something similar in 2013.

That's why we signed 12+ free agents as well as locked up our own (except Dorsey) guys.

Draft Geno and let his career take the Aaron Rodgers/Colin Kaepernick path.

Seriously Dane, after that ha of free agents this team doesn't have enough holes that the draft can't fill em all...there are a lot of bargain basement free agents left that we could bring in for 1 year deals, too...if needed after the draft.

They could draft Geno and sit him for 2 years and not lose a god damned thing over taking any other player in this draft at 1.

If there would be a better usage of that pick, I'd like to know how.

Why is drafting a RT at 1 so ghastly if he's an all pro type guy?

Because it'd be like giving a 4 year $40 million contract to a middle reliever.

Because it's a position that offers very little impact towards wins and losses and a first overall pick needs to impact wins and losses.

I don't think that Sutton wants a true "thumper" at ILB. They've been bitching for the last 3 years about having to take Scott off the field on subs while keeping Harris in. IMO (and I've bitched about this incessantly) you need two ILBs that can cover, even if one or both aren't true thumpers or fantastic against the run. In fact, having 2 ILBs who can cover, are quick and aren't thumpers helps your run D against 3W sets IMO. Just an opinion though
While I've been saying that the Chiefs should spend a 3rd rounder on an ILB since last year, it's impossible to predict that the hole would actually be filled, especially if there's not a proven veteran behind him (and Brandon Siler doesn't count, IMO).

I literally have no idea about him. Never watched him, don't really know anything about him other than what's been available in the media.


He's definitely a question mark at this point, at either position.
I really like Rodney but he's definitely not a player to be counted on at the moment.


Stephenson showed that the game wasn't too big last year and he came in extremely raw. He *could* be the long term solution at right tackle, or not. Allen, on the other hand, did look overwhelmed far too frequently for my taste.

It's funny, breaking down all of the PS games and the TC that I went to, I thought that Allen looked like a solid blocker and Stephenson looked lost. Maybe that has to do with Allen being thrown into the fire early but he didn't impress me nearly as much as Stephenson did.

Asamoah is in a contract year and really needs to step it up. Otherwise, he'll lose his job and probably not get it back, unless there's an injury.
I think he's been above average the past 2 seasons as a run blocker and decent in pass pro. Hence, why I'm hesitant to move him to LG. Haven't really evaluated him or anything since he's still under contract and didn't really view him as a piece to be worried about


Yeah, this is a BIG issue. We all saw Jon McGraw back there. I just hope we don't see something similar in 2013.
The last part, this is why I would have loved to have #34. Cyprien could fall, Elam could fall, etc. Both would have been solid additions.

This I do. You don't need All Pro tackles IMO. You need a top tier QB. Average to slightly above average QB play improves your OL (see Barry Richardson + Kyle Orton). Having an elite QB allows you to be productive even with horrific players at RT and LT (see the Bears, GB, NO). You need average, consistent OL play. While having an elite LT helps, it isn't a game changer. Nobody is confusing 2013 Bryant McKinnie with Joe Thomas.

You know how important right tackles are?

Look at the free agents list...there are multiple guys out there right now that are quality right tackles that nobody wants to pay.

Sebastian Vollmer just got a bag of chips and he is probably the best right tackle in the game...that's after being a free agent for a long time.

They better fill the ILB and Safety positions or it'll be 2011 all over again.

Furthermore, their offensive line is clearly in flux, which isn't a good thing.

I'm not stating that they can't fill these holes. But they're not filled yet.

Yeah, I don't think that Asamoah has the strength, especially lower body strength, to be an effective left guard.

We can only hope that the Chiefs will trade back for additional picks.

What? Bag of chips? WTF?

He got more than $8 million guaranteed this season, about $250k less than Jake Long.
