Just because the guy taking his place now sucks even more, doesn't make Allen any good.

I actually hope they bring Allen back to compete at RT. He looked a lot better there than he did at LG.

I was thinking that too.

Allen should be a pretty decent zone RT.

That's not really what Reid runs, so he's a LG now.

He's put on some excess weight to play in the phone booth which has restricted his athleticism.

He should cut back down and be our first option at any of the four line positions other than center. Main guy backing up the entire line but C.

We really need a guy who can play the LG spot as a power guy.

Updated.

Receiver, athletic TE, pass rusher and DB.

Chiefs do ZB more than any other type of run scheme.

Would also like us to get a dominant power player in the middle of our defense. Joe Mays is okay for now, but if you can get a safety that resembles a pollard or Kam chancellor, get him and watch this defense have success.
AJ Johnson from Tennessee looks like a guy who could be there in round 4.

They can go tackle if they want, since they'll actually need one in 2016. But considering they have all sorts of options at guard, I will seriously kill kccrow's hamster.

If the Chiefs win the Super Bowl, I'm totally cool if they take a guard with their 1st round pick.

I'm sorry, but I don't use PFF as my Bible.

Jeff Allen is an ascending player. He and Stephenson spent six weeks (and their own money) training in Arizona this offseason with former All Pro Le Charles Bentley (and it's not even a contract year). McGlynn is a 29 year old veteran with zero upside.

I don't "love" Allen but I don't believe that he's reached his ceiling.

The Chiefs have been running the ZBS exclusively since after the Bye week in 2013.

I think Reid was expecting him to have hist best season this year. Glad we drafted LDT as insurance.

Should be a nice battle between those two next year at camp.

One thing Pioli was always doing that seemed counterintuitive was drafting tackles to play guard and vice versa etc.

Draft a guard l, put him at guard.

A lot of college teams put their best lineman at lt even though their skillset translates better to the nfl as a guard.

Allen was projected as a better G than OT at the combine bc of his abilities. Same with Hudson being a better C than G.

I don't use PFF as my bible either, which is why I stated my eyeball test. Allen is shit, plain and simple shit. Never change my opinion on that. I don't expect to change yours either, just stating how I feel.

Will we have the money to snag Randall Cobb in FA?

He would be the *perfect* addition to this offense.
