Chiefs sign OL Goff
The Chiefs agreed to contract terms today with veteran offensive lineman Mike Goff. Goff has some versatility and could wind up starting for the Chiefs at center or right guard.

The 33-year-old Goff played 11 NFL seasons, the first six with Cincinnati and the last five with San Diego. He has been a starter for the past nine seasons.

Unger, Wood, and Mack are ALL shorter than Niswanger.

Eww... No.

If we're going to move Goff to Center, I'd move Niswanger to RG, and sign Shaffer to play Right Tackle.

I don't know how tall Mack and Wood are, but I know Unger is the same size as Niswanger...

Shaffer sucked last year. Draft a rookie to play center this year move him to guard in a few seasons.

More competition at any of the OL positions is a good thing. Having a guy who is tough and finds ways to be on the field during games as opposed to finding excuses for missing the games makes Goff much more valuable than a lot of guys who may have more skills or "upside."

**Buck** · 03-25-2009, 12:42 PM

Goff can't play Center.

The Chargers center was injured the last couple years and Goff was never considered.

Unger is 6'5 and Wood/Mack are 6'4. Not to mention Mawae and Birk are 6'5. Again height isnt the problem. Rudy would be a nice backup.

Yeah, they should also move Waters to DE, Gonzo to LG and Albert to LB that way everybody is playing out of position.

Thanks, corkster for your insightful post. Maybe do some research and find out that the Chiefs HAVE DISCUSSED MOVING McIntosh to the inside, as a guard. We're does that leave Goff? Hmmmm, maybe as the center, like I suggested. Hmm, where does that put McIntosh, as the RG, like I suggested. Hmmmm. Never go full on corky.

I don't think the Chiefs discussed that, I think we did. Also you really have no idea what Haley or Muir think of McIntosh unless you have personally talked to them...

Wood/Mack are both listed at 6'3.
Unger? 6'4...

Maybe it's all splitting hairs, but Niswanger's listed at 6'5.

McIntosh would be ****ing terrible inside.

Titty Meat · 03-25-2009, 12:46 PM

lol @ playing guys out of position. Hmmm dude thats part of the reason the last coaching staff sucked

**Buck** · 03-25-2009, 12:47 PM

I guess I'm wrong.

Check this out.

http://www.sportsnet.ca/football/nfl/players/Mike_Goff/

Pros:Tough, powerful run blocker. Can drive his man off the ball. Seems to get better every year. Has the experience to play center.

Cons: Not a natural athlete. Can get out-quicked by speed rushers.

(This was probably written a few years back. He's not a great Run Blocker anymore)
