I'd pick up Geoff Schwartz to play LG.

I think Jeff Allen will be the RT

So now we have no one at RT, and someone at LT who is almost 30 and may or may not have back problems, and will cost the average of the top 5 salaries in the league at his position.

I'm still in favor of trading back, but all signs point to Joeckel at 1.

?

This.

RT you have to be athletic.

Only Stephenson or Fisher.

Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout

No insider info here, but I'd keep an eye on Tamba Hali if the #Chiefs go on a cutting spree.



This ****ing guy

Maybe its just me...but i dont think this has any effect on the #1 overall pick. Hopefully they did save more than 700K with this move to allow us to spend in FA.

Next up: Mark Castle.

Black would of been fine had they not played him at LT.

I certainly won't miss the penalties. Seems like all I remember, significantly, are nice runs to the right, no protection, and penalties! Winston and Asamoah, illegal procedure, 4-5 times a game.

Lolwut

Yep I think we draft Fisher as well. Jeez our line will be unstopable.

ok, the more I think about this the more I'm convinced that either A) we have some hidden superstar RT on our roster already (unlikely) or B) Reid is going after one of the absolute TOP RTs available just like he did when he signed Runyan.

Andre Smith?

Agree, if we sign a LG we have some more depth on the line.

I could see this too. They could have looked at the game film, and thought, they've got this 2nd round pick playing out of position.

Wut.

What is wrong with him....

I'm like seeing the moves that Dorsey/Reid are making. They just aren't sitting around waiting for the next leaf from the Tree fall. They appear to be dictating their squad, not just waiting years and years to slowly mold the team they want. I like the apparent sense of urgency. It's been rare of late.

No more moves before Tuesday:

@ChiefsInsider: Don't be shocked to see former #chiefs RT Eric Winston go back to the #Texans! Tip of the iceberg more moves in KC to come before Tuesday!

Winston was cut because of injury. They are not gonna cut Hali.

RT next season will either be Stephenson or Fisher.

Allens skillset seems to be a better fit at tackle anyway. IMO, he's not fit to play G.

It was reported teams were asking players if they were gay so there's that.


Atleast the Chiefs have a Monopoly of Pioli draft picks at guard who can play right tackle.

Gonna go ahead and call it. We're gonna sign Winston Justice or King Dunlap

OK, I know we have pretty low standards around here...

Andy Reid didn't like Justice or Dunlap all that much. I doubt it. Dunlap is just plain bad. Reid values offensive lines. I'm sure he has a solid plan there.

The chiefs would not stay with the 3-4 if they were going to cut Hali.

What?

Of course they aren't going to cut Hali. I think Allen or Stephenson will be a serviceable RT. What i meant was i really don't see the loss of Winston as the end of the world. Injury or not.

I just want Cassel off the team as soon as possible because i hate his guts.

Shit with his injury problems, maybe they are going to bring in Jake Long and move him to RT?

Nick Athan isn't exactly my first choice for sources for good info.

Nope, I think he goes BIG TIME and pursues one of the best. Looking at Andre Smith, Jake Long (not likely), Loadholt, Vollmer or Cherilus.

Agreed! This roster needs a shake up. Dorsey and Reid putting in work! Make us proud!

You quoted Nick "Como" Athan.

Look at what he said and what I said :)

Whats better than 1 OT with back problems? 2 of them! Yay!!!

Heh...I clearly misread your editorial comment. :thumb:

I'm going to call it.

Chiefs are going to sign Andy LeVitre and move Allen and Stephonson to RT to comete there in TC, as I speculated early in this thread.

I doubt it. Long wants 11 million a year.

More good news from the AR/Dorsey regime. I never liked the acquisition of Winston and his play and attitude proved he wasn't a good fit. Build a winner! Oh yeah, send cassie to the vikes please.

LOL i hate this dude so much

I bet they sign Jake Long to play RT.

This.

Vollmer would be an upgrade!!

Vollmer, bitches.

I already said this! Reid's first big (and best) free agent move with Philly was to sign Jon Runyan at RT. Which leads me to think Long or Smith...

OH WAIT!
We could sign Andre Smith and then draft Geno Smith!

Worry not, Cassel is as good as gone. They're just waiting to get something suitable in return.......like ummmmm, a........ummmmmm...... Ok, just cut him.

I'm willing to sit back and give Reid and Dorsey some space to see what they do. I'm intrigued.

LeVitre Vollmer and Fisher would be nice additions!!

It appears that Andy Reid is really wants this OL to be as good as it possibly can after seeing how it absolutely ruined his team in Philly the last 2 years.

Sam Mellinger ‏@mellinger
For what it's worth, @PFF ranked Eric Winston 26th among 57 tackles to play at least half the snaps. Interestingly, Branden Albert was 25th.

If they wanted to pay big money to have Albert at LT and Long at RT, would anyone be pissed?

.

Yep I agree. and once this happens, it should put to rest all the stupid ****ing rumors of taking Yokel or any tackle 1 overall.

I'd like to see the Chiefs draft Warmack.

They are making a major commitment to this Alex Smith thing, if Winston isn't good enough. He wasn't as good as advertised, but he was far from a problem, and it's not a money issue. Winston wasn't any worse than Albert was. They obviously think the whole offense needs to be scrapped outside Bowe and Charles and I don't disagree.

Reid is hellbent on getting at least a Bacon Double Cheeseburger for Castle.

I thought Vollmer was hurt or chronically hurt?

Yes.

Mellinger doesn't know how to use PFF. ROFL

Wut

Why?


There's no way Long is getting 11 mil anyway.

Me

Dorsey took his sandwich back.

Has ZERO to do with Alex Smith. Look at Reid's history, he REALLY values high end Tackle play.

With what pick? :rolleyes:

Got a correction?

They're clearing cap money for something.

If they could get a healthy Long for $8 mil you'd be insane to not be happy. That's a complete fantasy, but just saying.

He's using overall ranking to try and say they're mediocre players. He doesn't know to interpret their data.

its gonna be sean smith and im going to cry

No reason to commit even half that much money when he comes with major injury concerns and Allen should be able to do a serviceable job.

someone will be stupid enough to give him 8 or 9+ a year.

This move would seem to be about clearing cap for the future based on the numbers I've seen in the twitter farts thrown around here.

I'd love that shit. True fans woudl eat it up too.

Jeff Allen sucked at LG last year and now he's supposed to just step in at RT not suck?

Don't buy it.

I think Albert is not high end. He's a "good" NFL LT. But defintely not top 5. But, Reid still wants him. Maybe he grades him as high end?:hmmm:

Well, right. I was asking if you cared to provide the proper interpretation.

Ditto. Our offense was beyond horrible last year.

Jesus Christ i hope they summon Willie Roafs prime back

Hey ,if the AR/Dorsey regime wants to blow high dough on O-l dudes, now is the time to do it. I'm totally for it. Build A Winner!

As a fan, condition yourself to not give a **** about money. That shit can be moved around if you have a smart cap guy.
