Conley is smart and poignant when he speaks but I'd rather have known dumbass Tyreke Hill in there if he can make some damn plays.

Thanks. Color me skeptical, though, as it just looks like typical camp hype to me (see comments on Conley in second link). I guess we'll see. It would be nice if the Chiefs would finally really hit on one of these camp stars.

Who cares if some idiot wasn't impressed with a guy in mini camp?

He made some plays last season when his # was called, and the team believes he's improved enough to give him the #2 spot to start camp. He's big, he's fast, and he's smart. After working out all offseason with Maclin and Wilson, I am confident he will be the best #2 we've had in Reid's time here based on his talent and intelligence alone.

Andy just said Houston will not practice with the team at camp. He's not playing week 1 guys.

I'm starting to think it'll be after the bye week, but did Poe practice at camp last year?

That doesn't rule him out for a late August return.

I think it's highly unlikely he's ready for Week 1 but that's a ways off.

If at least one or two of these guys doesn't step up, I don't see this roster as being better than last year's. Need them to produce for the team to take the next step.

The only thing that needs to happen for this roster to be better than last years is get Houston back, and stay relatively healthy.

Hard to think that the OL won't be improved over last year. Having our young guys gain another year of experience and adding Schwartz should yield a much improved line. The RB position will be improved with having Charles back. WR corp should be about the same, or perhaps improved a bit with more experience and the addition of Streater. The QB position took a hit with CD leaving, but if Alex stays healthy again, that's a push.

DL is probably a push. LB is probably a push. Secondary definitely took a hit with losing Smith, Branch and Abdullah, but we did draft several potential replacements; plus Gaines returns.

Special teams could be improved with the addition of Hill.

Gosh, I don't see how this team isn't better than our 2015 roster.

R Clark 07-26-2016 04:45 PM

I'd think working out with Maclin this off season we'd see some improvement from both him and Wilson.

The return of Houston cancels out the loss of Smith. Hopefully. The offense needs to be better in the passing game. The defense needs to be better. Otherwise this is still just a playoff team and not a superbowl team.

When did this happen?

In camp/OTA's he was lining up as the #2, and Wilson was in the slot.
