Praising a player's level of play doesn't help drive his value up at all. |

He is not good in coverage, thats proven nor does he have the IQ to excel at MLB. The only thing I could really think of as to why he should play on the weakside is on running downs. I just feel he has the speed, size and athleticism to chase down the RB from side to side in order to perform that role. And I stated that he and DOD should substitute where DOD could be a good compliment for Hitchens in that he has the skill set to be responsible in coverage for either the RB or slot receiver that lines up on the weakside and that could compensate or make up for Hitchens weakness. But DOD is too small and imo would get galloped by athletic, mauling OL. Thats where I think both Hitchens size, speed and athleticism has value and could compensate for DODs weakness in that regard. |
I also think Hitchens could be used in blitz packages. He has the explosiveness imo but needs to time his blitzes better. I do see potential in that area though.

If you were an NFL GM...and were interested in Ford, do you think the conversation about compensation starts lower or higher if Veach has publicly said that the Chiefs are iffy on him as he's suspect in every aspect of the game save pass rush? Don't double down, dude. You said something dumb without thinking it through. But if you DO double down, let me in that poker game witcho-dumb-ass. :) |

Hitchens ain't really a coverbacker. You don't want him covering RB's one on one in the flat. He's a 4-3 MLB. He's a smidge small i think for a SAM but is pretty physical so you COULD put him there. I don't think it's fair to say the guy lacks IQ after one season in Sutton's scheme. How dumb can he be, really, if Dallas used him in all three spots and he played well? I mean, he had to learn all the LB's responsibilities in all playcalls. |

And if DOD is the next guy in line that they have to block, he will get destroyed. Yeah I agree that Hitchens is physical and perhaps that could make up for shedding off blockers in these open field? In all fairness though, yeah I see your point in that he never really had a steady position at LB and always had to learn different positions there. |
Don’t know if it’s been said.
But if Veach saying Fords not going anywhere, Patrick Peterson apologizing for his trade request means he’s staying in the desert, right? |
I think I want to use one of our 2nd's on Jeffery Simmons.
Top of the draft talent that tore his ACL. Essentially we are trading a late 2 for a top 5 player. The point is to win as many Superbowls as possible. Imagine Jones and Simmons together. |
I saw it mentioned by someone in a thread recently but I really want players drafted who love football. Guys like Mahomes who probably lose sleep over every loss. And I know talent matters a ton, but if two players are close in talent but one guy cares about his craft a lot more, that’s the player I want. Even if he isn’t quite as good physically.
Fortunately, Veach has always said that they like to target guys who love the game. I expect that will continue as it creates a level of accountability within the locker room. |
We're just gonna argue in circles; neither has any inside knowledge.
I'm quite certain that Hitch is your MLB. DoD is your Will. Sam is up in the air. You think otherwise. As of right now; with FA and the draft to go. We'll see how it plays out. |

Dude, it's literally bluffing to sweeten the bet. For ****'s sake, man. I really don't understand how you're not getting this. But I DO know, that if you've got a poker game going, I want in. |

Musicians would gladly take the money and the glory; but they're going to play music whether anyone cares or not. Whatever it takes. just to keep playing. The wannabe STARS usually fall away and go do something else when the going gets tough; and the going ALWAYS gets tough. Give me a band full of musicians anyday. |
