Creed is so much better than Blythe.

Could trey smith end up at tackle eventually? Dude seems to be able to handle speed, power, inside, outside, and doesn’t need to feed to help.

"Andrew Wylie in at RT" are words I pray to God I never have to hear again in real life.

Chris Jones is a ****ing beast.

I feel like he could handle it, but it's probably one of those situations where you have to choose if you'd rather have a dominant guard or a 'pretty good' tackle. You kind of lower his value if you try that. I'm guessing if he could play tackle at the same level as guard, they would have tried him there in college.

Seriously, though, how in the living hell did this guy fall so far in the draft? I know there were health issues and all, but good lord the guy looks like a man amongst boys out there. Doesn't even seem like he's even trying that hard either.

Why in the world are they giving Wylie reps at RT? He should never see that position again after what happened in the Super Bowl.

I swear, the guy must be Andy Reid's bastard son or something. He just gets abused season after season and they keep giving him chances. I don't understand it.

The draft apologists are already out in force on Twitter, saying Trey Smith would have been a top ten pick if it wasn’t for the blood clots.


Just lol at the transparency of these idiots. Veach is a ****ing wizard.

Big props to Dante84, this stream of video clips is ****ing awesome

Also if you have what appears to be an instant all-pro guard you don’t move him to tackle.

What's with that jump step? He does that darn near every time. If an opposing OT keys in on that he'll be on his butt.

my twitter feed is filled with people I've never heard of giving their opinion on oline play acting like they know wtf their talking about. I'm glad Schwartz replies to some of these to provide actual perspective and knowledge.

I think this is Mitch's version of Tyrann's "shut up bitch" tweet

Looks like that's it for practice today, some clips will come out later today as the media gets back to KC and uploads their shit from their non-phone cameras.

Now onto the presser.

I think my favorite development from training camp so far is that the OL and DL are just trading blows.

One dude will get smoked by another, and then the reverse happens. No one is absurdly terrible, and everyone seems to have great reps here and there.

I'd say Blythe is maybe getting abused the most, and Jones is destroying everyone. Smith is doing incredible. Wharton looks like he took it up to another level. Creed is looking great for a rookie.

Reid says Devon Key's traits - emphasizes "Smarts" and "Instincts" - not usually attributes given to UDFA rookie safeties.

He should be destroying 3rd team players

What is your overall impression of Brown so far?

Someone on here pointed out that medication for blood clots = blood thinners, which means having a medical plan for how to manage those going in and out of game day.

He’s getting work with the 1s and has also flashed when he does.

It’s hilarious that you won’t give him any props.

I'm comfortable at this point, cautiously optimistic. What I'm really pleased about is that I think it was a *perfect* strategic move by Veach:

- We didn't pay an injured, "meh" LT in Fisher.
- We got a Pro-Bowl LT to slide in for the cost of (essentially) a second round pick, when the cupboard was otherwise bare.
- We didn't take a flyer on an unproven 1st round LT, and most were gone anyways when we would have picked.
- We haven't extended Brown yet, meaning we aren't tied to him if he doesn't excel
- We are paying him rookie contract wages at (arguably) the most important non-QB position on our roster, freeing up our cap to use elsewhere
- If he does excel, we can structure his extension in a way that lines up well with the growing cap in future years.


The big question is scheme fit - can he adapt to our pass-heavy offense? Even if not amazing, if he does "just okay" on certain plays, we can scheme around that a bit. Put a Blake Bell to help chip the edge; roll right; run more often; screen more often.

I think we're going to be okay no matter what because Veach is calling the shots and Reid is calling the plays.

If Brown is all-pro, great. If he's functional, fine. I don't think he'll fail terribly.

Chris Jones is a ****ing beast

Get Wylie off the field!!! Oh wait...

It's his signature move , it's called "the flying Taco " Leave him alone!

Woooow, with that weight off he's tapped into a whole notha' leva'.

That's a protection call issue, most likely, meaning it's on Mahomes or Humphrey. It's not like he got "beat."

They'll work that out in the classroom.

Yikes Niang.

I think Remmers is going to be our RT this year.

Keep in mind the defense knows its running plays or its passing plays so advantage goes to defense .

He’s a genuine student of the game, it’ll get ironed out

:rolleyes: We’re talking about practice…

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. Niang has done a great job against Clark and Jones, and Remmers had back issues last year too.

Oh okay.

Excellent!

Woooow, +1 Creed Humphrey. With the camp Wharton is putting together that's really impressive.

If Remmers can get healthy and be as good as he was last year, he’s probably your RT, but I don’t think either is a sure thing.

He is going to wreck shit up this year. :thumb:

What's your confidence level Remmers can be healthy for 17 games plus playoffs this year?

Thank god we have Kyle Long in the wings.

Antonio Callaway just went down after he was jammed going out for a route by Dicaprio Bootle. It’s not looking good. He had to be helped to the medical tent.

Creed makes me horny baby!!

Let’s see what he does in a real game against real NFL players. Not players like Yasir Durant who are fringe roster types

So you’re just going to ignore that he’s also done well against 1st and 2nd stringers when he’s gotten the opportunity?

Dominating 3rd stringers and flashing against 1st/2nd stringers is exactly what you want to see from a guy like him this early.

Lots of players who didn’t make it look good in camp. There’s nothing wrong with him looking good in camp.

Forgive me for not putting him in the hall of fame based on practice.

He doesn't suck, we know that now, which is a good start.

Yea because giving the guy some credit = putting him in the HOF!

:rolleyes:

PittGonorrhea he's a professor:rolleyes:

To be fair, we didn’t have a C on the roster when we signed him, so at the time he was the obvious choice.

Creed looks ****ing great

All the attention has been on Smith and Gray, but Creed can just as easily be our ROY.
