Priceless.

You're an idiot.

I never ONCE complained that the Chiefs didn't sign anyone early. As a matter of fact, I wanted no part of guys like Peppers. Also, I backed the TJ signing from day one.

Your only purpose here is spread unsubstantied rumors and to insult those with fact-based opinions.

All the sudden our OL doesnt look that bad.

Possibly pick up a good center or RT in the draft and we might have ourselves an OL.

Maybe it was because Jim Isray is a hands-on owner who was pissed about losing the SB. He decided that they needed more of a running game and that a bigger line is the way to go about it. So he made the decree that the 0-line needed to get bigger which was something the previous o-line coach (Howard Mudd) refused to do. And...shit rolls downhill. Bye Lilja.

Of course there were a couple of folks that insisted Lilja was washed up even before the unsubstantiated report of Lilja's failed physical came out. But that happens. We all make mistakes. I'd like to think that we're all hoping that Lilja proves to be a stud at RG and the o-line benefits from his great experience in Indy. Always good to have some extra SB bling in the locker room.

After we draft a LT at #5 and move a Albert to LG of course. ;)

A rookie center would reap a lot of wisdom from a guy like Wiegmann.

EVER.

Just FTR, Daryl Harris did play a little center in college, and when the Chiefs added him to the 53 man roster last year, they had him working there some as well.

Time will tell.



Hope is all Chiefs fan have these days.

There's plenty of starting quality centers that can be had in the 3rd to 4th round this year.

This is the way it should be.

The Chiefs aren't forced to take a Center in the draft. Wiegmann's got 1 maybe 2 years left in him.

If the Chiefs choose not to draft a Center, they'll live. Wiegmann plays the year out and they draft one in 2011. Better than walking into the draft and reaching for a Center because you absolutely had to take one in the draft.

Oh, I know.

I think it would be wise to take the kid from Notre Dame (at the least). In most mock's, he's fifth, of which the Chiefs have three.

The Vikings drafted their starting center last year in the 6th.

I just hope it's addressed because if Weigmann goes down, the last thing I personally want to see is the 'Wanger at center.

MoreLemonPledge 03-16-2010 09:19 PM

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Chiefs take that Center from Notre Dame if he's still around in the 5th.

Edit: Dane beat me to it. I think I'm more surprised that we actually agree on something :D

I hope he's got one year left because if the Chiefs don't draft a center, we're stuck with the 'Wanger.

Not good.

I believe it was a late-round selection. We don't have any 6th or 7th rounders, for example.

Here's my deal. Yeah, people saw something in Alleman, just like Pioli, who saw enough to give up something of real value in return. Yes, I'm one of those idiots who think even 6th or 7th round selections can be meaningful.

That said, I'd rather have Alleman for o-line depth than a player who *might* be washed up because of injuries. Now, I guess this is where you have to trust your medical staff. If they say Lilja is fine, well, all right...

The problem with Allenman is that he's had back issues since the day he came into the league.

So what you have, really, is the choice between a guy who can't stay healthy (Allenman), and a guy whose knees may or may not be shot.
