LDT gets first team reps at RG
www.rotoworld.com
Chiefs OL Laurent Duvernay-Tardif lined up as the first-team right guard during Wednesday's OTA practice. The Chiefs appear to be high on their 2014 sixth-round pick. Though he was inactive every game of his rookie season, Duvernay-Tardif stuck on the roster the entire season and has earned consistent praise from coach Andy Reid. "Very strong and athletic, and he’s smart," Reid said of LDF. "It’s just a matter with him – like I mentioned back then last year – his reps. Every rep he gets better with. He's a good football player." Paul Fanaika is still the favorite to start at right guard, but Duvernay-Tardif could push him in camp. SOURCE: CHIEFS DIGEST |

Silly "article" and about as important as Stephenson getting first team reps a few weeks back.
That said, someone's getting the ax at right guard because they have a serious log jam at the position. |

Pretty much. He got some slack from the fans due to being a rookie thrown in.. but he was far from solid. His foot speed and overall mobility don't appear to be something that can be improved much upon. Now, if LDT shows that he can step up, his athleticism would mean that KC's misdirection runs and screen game can thrive.

Nice, I'm rooting for him. He's an amazing athlete and the little I saw of him, he looked really mean.

Same here. It cracked me up that he was helping to deliver babies while balancing the time requirements of the draft last year. I think it'd be awesome to have a big brain on the line if he can get the technique down.

I hate when a team pulls the "He just needs reps ..." bullshit
You are in charge of the reps so why is that EVER a problem?

For stuff like this, reps are measured in hundreds - not one at a time. It's not a matter of having him in on every snap as much as it's a matter of him just being around long enough for things to click.
