Anybody else think Colin Brown and McIntosh are the odd men out here?

Give us your OL depth chart. Practice squad not included.

LT: Albert, Taylor
LG: Waters, Smith
C: Alleman, Ghiaciuc
RG: Goff, Niswanger
RT: Richardson, Ndukwe

Colin Brown makes the practice squad. McIntosh is cut.

DaneMcCloud

No.

Goff's on the way out.

And your depth chart is incorrect.

Alleman is lining up at right guard.

Goff's on the way out.

And your depth chart is incorrect.

Alleman is lining up at right guard.

Actually, if you look at the official depth chart, Ndukwe is lining up at right guard. But I don't believe that, either. Pioli's been unhappy with McIntosh at right tackle since the day he got here. He's tried to correct it with a draft pick (Brown moved inside), by promoting Richardson (he's sputtered), and now by bringing in Ndukwe, who has right tackle experience and says himself he's going to play right tackle.

Alleman is slated on the official depth chart at center, and I do think that's where he'll end up.

This year, anyway. Haley still really likes Goff. I know he hasn't performed but Haley has a track record of promoting those who work their asses off and act as leaders. Methinks Goff stays and starts -- for a while.

Next year is anybody's guess.

I'm starting to think about it more and more, and this team will definitely only have 9 OL on the roster.

In which case I think Ndukwe currently occupies the backup position at both right spots. Niswanger is the backup C, and Ghiaciuc is gone.

Dude, you're not reading the daily transcripts. Haley said today that Alleman is a RIGHT GUARD. Not a center. Ndukwe is a RIGHT TACKLE.

And Ghiaciuc was running with the first team, as he should.

Niswanger fucking sucks ass.

Niswanger ****ing sucks ass.

Versatility, man. These guys are valued here because they are versatile. Alleman can handle RG and C. He'll likely get reps at both during the remainder of the preseason. Ndukwe can handle both right spots, and will take reps at both.

You are assuming, as I try to follow your line of logic, that this team will keep Ghiaciuc and Niswanger, and cut Goff. And that's insane.

Either way, you are assuming that either Niswanger or Goff (or both) is completely cut by the time the roster's down to 53. I find that incredibly unlikely.

RealSNR
08-25-2009, 11:34 PM
Niswanger will be used as guard depth if he doesn't grab the starting center spot (which is possible... he's sucked wastewater this preseason)

I highly doubt Alleman starts, due to the lovely reports I've heard from around the league about how awful he is. Yeah, yeah, I KNOW our line sucks, but christ. One team's 3rd stringer is NOT our starter. It's not that bad. He's not even from a team that has that great of a line. They just have depth to burn, that's all.

Wade Smith is a better guard than Niswanger, but how are his skills at center? If he's good enough for depth at backup center, and Ghiaciuc takes the starting spot away, THEN Niswanger would be cut.

Sounds like a two-month signature bet to me. (Even though I have sigs disabled and haven't the slightest clue what mine says anymore -- it's probably been phished again.)

The bet: by the time the roster is down to 53, I say either Niswanger or Goff will be on this team.

Just because Alleman is a G now doesn't mean he won't play center this season...we'll have to wait and see.

Personally I STILL believe that Goff is the answer at RG, he just had a bad game against Kevin Williams. Happens to a lot of guards.

Well, considering that I don't have a signature, you're on.

If you want, we could bet $10,000 in casino cash. But, the bet has to be opening day because Pioli and Haley will be making changes to the roster at least until then.

Sure, let's do the casino cash thing.

Opening day against the Ravens: Goff and/or Niswanger will be on this roster.

By the way, what does your OL depth chart look like?

My OL depth chart, much like the Chiefs roster, is fluid.

The only positions to me that are set in stone are Waters & Harris at left guard with Albert at left tackle. The rest are up for grabs.

Edit: The bet for me is that Goff won't be on the roster. I think Niswanger is on the roster but that Alleman won't be a center.

Direckshun

I don't even project him on the roster at this point.

Oh, Dude.

Have you watched and graded him out? The dude is a monster. He's going to be the starting left guard next year. He's athletic, is a great downfield blocker, pulls well and at 6'4, 310 pounds at age 21, he's only going to get stronger and better.

I mentioned him first in another thread and Milkman joined in with even further analysis. Both of us like him very, very much.

Direckshun
08-26-2009, 12:01 AM
I've seen him play and I haven't been impressed, really, at all. He played very well against the Texans, but then so did the entire second-string OL. He got eaten alive along with the rest of the OL against the Vikings, though.

I don't know, I've generally come to trust MM's analysis on lineman, so that's exciting. I personally haven't seen it on the field just yet.

Alright, I'm slightly disappointed that you've backpedaled but I'll take the bet.

So you honestly think we're entering the season with Ghiaciuc and Niswanger as our center depth?

Because I really don't. I think that's the whole reason Alleman was brought here.

What? Eaten alive? WTF?

Are you watching on a 13" black and white standard def TV? He had ONE missed blocked the entire second half. The rest of the time, he blocked well, pulled well and was out in front of the running back on screens and outside plays.

You need to re-watch the game because your analysis is way, way off.

And again, I don't think the Chiefs are anywhere near finished with the roster and it is possible that Niswanger doesn't make the squad. It all depends on the waiver wire.

With these additions, I think Wade Smith gets shown the door, and Colin Brown has played too well at RG this preseason to get to the practice squad.
If he's cut, someone picks him up.

Albert, Taylor
Waters, Harris
Niswanger, Allenby
Goff, Brown
Richardson, Ndukwe

That is fluid, of course, because Taylor can backup at both tackle spots, Allenby and Ndukwe can both play at RG, and Niswanger only holds the center position because we are all almost certain to find out just how badly Ghiaciuc sucks.

Personally, I would really like Waters moved inside to center, a position he manned earlier in his career, and see how a line of Albert, Harris, Waters, Brown and Richardson could fare together.

I like milky's idea here for the most part but the only concern for me would be that moving Waters and Harris not being quite ready. That being said our offensive line is sucking more than a whore on payday. Also, there is no way Brown gets cut. he won't pass waivers and we spent a 5th on him...No way Scott and Todd let go one of the guys from their first draft so early...

Goff's play on Friday was so bad it made Richardson appear to play worse than he did. I was guilty of it the first time I watched it live, but it was evident on the dvr. That said, Haley's quote that Barry isn't ready for primetime and the addition of Ndukwe speak to where they feel Barry is at.

There's NO WAY that Harris makes it through waivers.

Wade Smith???????????

WHAT THE **** ARE YOU PEOPLE WATCHING???????????

Brown would NEVER make it through waivers, either.

JFC, people.

Get a goddamn CLUE.

What is even cooler about that list is two of his starters are also the only backups at two other positions.

I'm fine with either Brown or Harris over Smith if the feeling is one won't make it to the practice squad. The GM/coach are looking for versatility so that's why I have Smith there initally. Taylor I agree has value but I see him as being a LT only and I think he's the odd man out in my scenario. If they keep 9 he will like be the one.

Smith sucks ass. Did you even watch the Chiefs last year?

There's NO WAY they try to sneak either Brown or Harris through waivers.

Taylor has TRADE VALUE so if the Chiefs are looking to find a roster spot for someone else, he'll be traded, not released.

Oh, JFC.

So I take it that watching game film is now equated to Rocket Science?

What the **** is wrong with people like you that think like this?

Didn't you play high school football for 3 or 4 years and watch film after practice and games? I mean, come the **** on. It's not that ****ing difficult.

JFC, Dude. I've never agreed with your personnel opinions but I've never thought you a were football moron.

Until now.

Get 'em Dane!! :)

Yes, I agree Smith sucks. His value is only that he can "play" LG,C and RG which is what my above OL scenario is based on, 8 o-linemen.

As for Brown and Harris and the waiver question.. it appears I should've given a detailed description of how exactly these two were going to end up on the PS. As with everything we post here it was speculation on where they would end up. Next time I won't be so careless.

It's not logical that you say Smith sucks but that he has value if he can play three positions.

Put another way you just said 3 x 0 = value

Sure, it's Pioli logic. Not the best or talented 53, but the right 53.

what it means in my scenario is that Pioli can deal with suck at the bottom of one position group if it means the overall suckage of the roster is reduced.

Dude, give it up.

Wade Smith couldn't hold my fucking jockstrap.

If he makes this team, I'll predict 1-15 because that would mean that the Chiefs would have the worst offense line in the NFL, bar none.

By a WIDE margin.

Fine, it's really not worth going on about Smith. IMO, he's got value if the Chiefs only keep 8 linemen on the 53 man roster, which was the whole point of my post. Would I like to see someone else there, sure I would. I just get the feeling from reading the reports from camp that come september there will be more wideouts and linebackers making the active roster. If I have to see Smith run out the tunnel on Sundays because a potential playmaker like quintin lawrence can be active on gameday I'll be ok with that this season.

Your point would be valid if Smith was actually average at either guard or center.

He's not. He sucks ass at both.

Therefore, his value is zero.

I'm looking at some video now.

Harris got Brodie Croyle killed.

Otherwise, positive stuff. His pass protection looks very good.

I mentioned that it was his one bad play of the night. I did result in a 15 yard gain due to helmet to helmet contact.

He didn't miss a block the rest of the night.

He looks good pulling to me. Reminds me a little of Shields with his body type and movement.

He looks to be a very good blocker downfield as well. The problem has been that none of the screens or outside plays materialized.
