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.

I would think so as he was listed as a DE/DT for a while. Sounds like a perfect DE in a 3-4.

You really think McBride should bulk up and play DT?

People have been making excuses for McBride for months. I think he ****ing sucks. He's probably even WORSE as a second round pick than Pollard, and DCS knows what I think about that waste of space.
