Why keep Christian and Wanego?

Wanogho and Christian as backup OT's great, but no need to keep both Allegretti and Reiter, they're the same damn guy.

Kinnard looks roooooough, man. He's pretty bad.

I'm not saying he's going to stay that way, but it's pretty stupid to be locked in to only one decent backup on the entire interior OL. You get one injury and all of a sudden you're pretty much ****ed if Kinnard is as bad as he currently is.

OBJ contract is incoming, so prepare for it.

IDK.

I think trading Reek signals it’s Mahomes and everyone else in terms of commitment.

It was always that way

Once he got that MVP and showed himself as elite he became the one absolutely untraceable piece in this franchise

I'm not enamored with the idea of keeping RoJo, but I get the reasoning. Also, the thought of Geron Christian having to actually play OT makes me physically ill.

I REALLY hope we are able to add a legit backup OT before the season starts. Does anyone know if Eric Fisher has already said no to KC? He's supposedly said no to 9 teams already.

Eric Fisher is not coming back people.

Because he's not the same player he was?

Because he wants to be a starter?

I mean, there's dozens of reasons really.

Which of those guys did Kinnard outplay?

What did he put on film that would make another team think he should be on their 53?

You should be physically ill every year, then.

Jah Reid? Donald Stevenson? Cam Erving? Remember Mike Remmers in the SB? We’ve had far more atrocious options than Christian just about every year. Last year when Thuney was technically the backup was the first time in years we had somebody competent as the LT

It's still strange to me that people's standard for 'Legit Backup OT' is simply having a spare starting caliber OT on your bench.

Folks - that don't happen unless you're sitting on a veteran you intend to replace in a year and have his 1st round replacement sitting behind him.

Christian is a credible backup LT.
