That guy is AWFUL. One of the worst RBs in football and probably the absolute worst to get the kind of volume he got. The Williams fascination 'round here is bizarre to me.

And if the ball doesn't bounce of his face mask in the SB that may have been the single greatest play in the history of the game.

Trey Smith has always been a high level player he slipped due to medical. I don't care what Al Gore is doing or how good MVS looks in shorts. It's Kendrell Bell body slamming folks all over.

What those final RB spots come down to is who's better on ST IIRC McKinnon played some last year. What can Pinocho and Ealy do? Ealy looked like a great fit for the old offense we ran don't know how much of that we are changing. With the line we have and guys we have at RB a power run game makes sense.

1. Familiar with Chiefs playbook and KC coaches know what he can do.

3. NFL teams need RBs and injuries will happen.

That's kind of how I see it, low-risk, high-reward if he can reproduce his playoff production.
I think we have to hit the brakes on who's RB1, who gets cut, etc. until training camp. OTAs don't mean much and I doubt we'll get a lot of insight in the upcoming minicamp.

I was just thinking yesterday about why he hadn't been resigned...thought it was strange as he was great down the stretch.

Agreed

It's also a prime reason why you don't draft RBs in the first round. You can find guys like this every year everywhere.

He has not lived up to his draft position, no question.

I'm willing to forget all that and see what he does this season based on nothing else than the fact he had to deal with gallbladder removal. No more excuses no that he's healed up completely, time to go show it.

He was.....just better than anyone we had. Pretty clearly.

Damn man, he was so good down the stretch and in the playoffs. This OL is really ****ing good, just taking whats blocked up should put you in the 800-1000 yard rushing territory, plus with the screen game etc.

Clyde was injured, etc etc whatever. But god damn he was awful last year.

Maybe to use the others guys and keep him healthy for the playoff run is the way to go..
