I'm just glad the days of the players drinking wine and eating dinner with the coaches is OVER. Time for some real football coaches. Haley his the nail on the head: Waters was on 2-14 football. Get over yourself. |
Michael Lombardi nailed the comparasson of Taylor to that of Derrick Deese. Deese was an undersized tackle who was a very good pass blocker but could be overpowered in the run game. Herb looked a bit bigger last year and could add more. I think giving him his shot at G would be good for him. As long as he has a good T beside him and a strong C. He could slide out to T when needed like Shields did.
De La Puente is a G but more of a C size wise. Richardson needs only to toughen up, in the weight room and mentally he needs to realize if he wants it he can be a starter, just get his mind into it. He needs to aquire a mean streak which isn't very easy to do. He may just be what he is. I don't have any hope that McIntosh will excell at RT again and think he is to soft to play G. I imagine he gets cut but for now is an insurance policy. Jones is a turd, but a FA turd at that. I liked what i saw ( didn't expect much ) from Wade Smith. But that was the spread and he is only a backup for all 3 inside spots. Add in Rudy who got the 2nd rd RFA tender and hopefully a move to RG. I think he is a Pioli type of Lineman from looking at the pats roster, he fits in size wise. I think Jake Grove is a FA. this guy http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/players/playerpage/407201 Elton Brown has been a bust in AZ but Haley would have an idea if he was worth a short term Prove it contract or not. |

Now that some time has elapsed since Whitlock published Brian Waters' diary, I've come to a different conclusion about what ought to be done in the situation.
I think you work it out and keep him here. Or at least come to a point where it looks like you've worked it out and THEN move him to another team. We've got so many holes in this roster, particularly if we're moving to 3-4 base defense, that it would be nice to not have to worry about the left side of the O-line at least for this year. Unlike LJ, I don't believe Waters would do anything less than his best if he's retained. These are all men and I'm sure they can work it out in a way that helps Waters move forward and the leadership save the reputation as a hard-ass organization. Now, if Buffalo or someone else blew us away with an offer, that's a different story. But my hope is that they can work through it so that we have one less roster spot to fill this year. And with Cassel back there, I'm pretty sure Pioli's going to make sure the left side of the line is fortified. BTW along those lines, whoever mentioned moving Albert from LT is crazy. |

If Chiefs brass can get through to him and get his head together he'd be a valuable part of this offense. |
A 3rd would be great!

A couple years ago guys like Eric Steinbach got huge money deals for G's. I was just an example of a poor FA class and teams overpaying.
Carl had guys like Tony and LJ who were like his sons. But guys like Trich and waters were his guys who "got it" whatever that ment. He always pumped up Trich as a future director of player development. Which could be true. Tony is a good guy and a true pro. He also got waters to think he was kissing his ass when waters acted as his own agent and signed and negotiated a bad contract. In addition to other offseasons with BW being unhappy with $$$ last year Waters was asked somewhere about moving to C with Weigmann not coming back and insuated sure he would do it but want money as an incentive for doing so. Maybe he should call up Will Shields and get his agent Joe Linta's number and ask him for some representation. |
