I'm thinking that one of our RBs will be on another team by the time the season starts...

I was really down on K. Smith for the simple fact I hadn't heard any noise about him in camp, but he looked good last night. Still needs some work following his blocks in open space.
Price is on the rise, the guy did nothing but help his QB out the 1st 2 preseason games, unlike Darling who didn't show a whole lot of fight on his routes. I like J. Battle a lot, I just don't think there's room. Cox is a lock. |

Price has earned the right to start the next game in my opinion, can darling do anything on special teams? If he makes this team as only a WR the whole process of "goin with the young guys" is a joke. Hes 5th in my opinion of the wideouts you listed in this post. I'd like to get to see Robinson at some point during the preseason cause if he cant beat that bum Darling out of a job we should just cut ties with him right now.

All I know is we better keep Savagae. He's like a young Dante Hall. Looks like he has all the tools to be a great returner

This team is deep at HB and none of the above will clear waivers for the practice squad. Outside of LJ, I'de keep savage as a kick returner and keep the best pass blocker of the remaining HB's. Hopefully we can get some future draft compensation out of whoever we don't keep.
At TE, I'de keep Gonzo and Cottam and sneak Allen onto the PS. At WR, I'de keep Bowe, Franklin, Price, Darling, and Robinson. I prefer Robinson over Webb unless he stays injured through the rest of the preseason. At this point we could throw him on the PS for future KO and PR duties. And Cox obviously has earned his role as a FB. With the youth movement on the O-Line, Croyle's going to need all the help he can get. Not to mention he has some pretty soft hands as an option pass. |

Chiefs How many running backs, receivers and tight ends will we keep?
I'd like to see Robinson too before preseason ends but is he reknowned for any receiving ability? I was under the impression he was basically drafted just as another option at KR. I remember not being too impressed with this draftpick because if I remember correctly, he runs a 4.64 or something like that. Still, I'd like to see him play.
I don't believe we'd simply cut him with him out most of the preseason with injury. That's why I say he's a candidate for practice squad or injured reserve. I don't see him beating out any of the five I listed above though. I think I'd like to see the remaining 2 games before I put Jeff Webb ahead of Darling on the depth chart. I think Price has a shot at beating him out though for the slot position. I'd love to start with Bowe, Franklin and Price though as the top three. I think Franklin has earned a shot to run with the #1s though. I'd like to see him get a starting nod for the Miami game. |

Runningback
There is probably nothing anybody could do about it, but if I'm Herm, I have this in the back of my head. The Chiefs used the following backs last year:
LJ - Broken Priest - Broken FOREVER Kolby - Missed some games - knee I think Jackie Battle - Can't remember if he finished the season Gilbert Harris The Chiefs went though 5 backs. WOW! Off the top of my head, I remember the following injuries: WR Kennison - Broken TE Dunn - Missed a few games FB I don't recall any injuries Again, that is off the top of my head. So there were 2 injuries in all the rest of the skill positions. And both those guys were 900 years old. If I'm Herm, I'm taking as many RBs as possible, especially since we have some talent there. I think Robinson goes to the IR and Sams goes....I don't care, just away. That way there is a servicable returning kicks in Savage. I don't think it will happen, but if I'm Herm, I try to get 5 RBs on this roster. |

LJ, Kolby, Charles, Savage, Cox
Tony, Cottam, Allan Meritt goes to IR or PS Bowe, Darling, Franklin, Price, Webb Robinson and Battle probably won't clear and will end up elsewhere, IMO.
