Gaither will get his first look at left tackle
Gaither will get his first look at left tackle

The Chiefs won't practice until later this afternoon and coach Todd Haley said when they do, the recently signed Jared Gaither will be working as a left tackle.

Gaither can eventually be moved to right tackle if the Chiefs see the need. But at least to start, he'll be on the left side.

Interesting move but not unexpected. In his two seasons as Baltimore's starting left tackle, Gaither was better than Branden Albert has been during his time as the Chiefs' starter at that position.

If Gaither works out the way the Chiefs hope, Albert should probably prepare to make the move over to the other side of the line himself.

Meantime, the Chiefs need to get Gaither into playing shape.

''This is a guy that's been out, hasn't been part of an off-season program, like everybody else,'' Haley said. ''He also missed a couple of weeks so even thought I believe he’s been working on his own, the number one deal for him is going to be the strength and conditioning aspect. He got a couple of good workouts over the weekend and we’re going to continue that.''

''First and foremost is trying to get him into a baseline physical condition that we feel like gives him a chance to succeed.''

if Gaither really is on a 1 year deal (which makes sense) then either he or Albert will get a good contract either during or after this year.

Gaither wasnt really a problem until he was moved to the right side, from what Ive read anyway.

I was pissed when the Chiefs hired Muir, because I've always wondered how he has a job.

I would submit that he has a bad teacher.

He was considered a pro bowl quality guard prospect that some saw as a first round prospect that could be a good project at LT.

(I think if he is returned to his natural position of left guard, his natural elite ability will also return.)

He came in and had a very solid rookie year where he only gave up like 4 sacks...then Haley came in and made him lose a lot of weight and the wheels came off.

He started having trouble with speed rushers that had good power in 2009 (or I should say, more problems) and really hasnt improved as a pass blocker in the 2 years since Haley took over.

I honestly think that if he gained 20-25 pounds, he would be able to flourish for us at LT but thats not likely to happen.

Gaither is every bit the run blocker that Albert is, but is a much better pass protector. He showed the ability to eliminate an opponents best rusher consistently at LT for a couple years (even in the playoffs) and then Oher fell to their spot and all hell broke loose. Gaither couldnt handle the fact that they drafted a replacement and became a distraction by refusing to move to the right side.

Thanks....yea, i guess im not really a big fan of converting players positions at the NFL level. Whatever the case, im just glad we have depth and competition at a critical position.

to okie

Why would they?

He has been average, at best, as a LT in three years starting.

Well I hope CP is happy, given all the hate there is for Albert and CP dumbasses demanding of his removal from the LT position.

No one is going to give him elite LT money because he is far from being an elite LT. If Gaither ends up getting healthy Albert isn't even a starting LT.

nobody hates him, but at one point you have to make the call to pull the plug on a project that isn't developing further.

Albert isnt any better of a pass blocker than he was his first game starting...shit, I would argue that he has regressed.

Maybe that gives credence to the statement Milk made about lacking coaching in relation to his development.

I don't necessarily hate him or want his removal I just think we need better line play if we're going to go to the next level. Our below average line was exposed badly in the playoff loss.
